Weekend was good. On Saturday my friends and i went to a night at broadway gala to support the academy of arts and it was spectacular. Four Broadway stars sang three songs each in an hour and a half long concert. We all want to go again next year (we love musicals) plus it’s always nice to dress up and get out for a night like that.
Sunday was nothing. Prep for my conference and now I’m on the tarmac with at least a 20 minute delay. Booo
Re: Monday
I took the day off to mostly lay around and am finally getting caught up here. Work has been insane lately and I'm still reading two weeks of Prudie.
@Casadena, Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear you missed the gala! I'm glad you are at least starting to feel better.
I ran errands on Friday and Sunday. Freshly stocked fridge, pantry, and prescriptions are done for another month.
I started back on an exercise program yesterday. That is if I count "one day" as being back on it. Which I do, lol. For me, it is more getting back in the habit. Biked on my stationary bike for 40 minutes. I set it to a lower resistance level than I used to do, but was impressed with myself I was able to ride for that long. I wasn't very tired or even sweating that much, but want to keep this first week or so on the easier side.
Today is just the usual. Nothing much going on. But the weather is getting better. It's been warm enough we haven't had the heater on at all for the last few days.
I'm at DD's now. The boys are at school and she is at work so I worked out this morning after I took the boys to school. Now I have the rest of the day to myself. She doesn't work the next two days so we will have some time together along with the little one. The weather is gorgeous! Yesterday after arrived GS2 wanted to show me how he can ride his bike without training wheels. Who would've thought we'd be in light jackets in Chicago in February! No complaints here.
Hope you are feeling better soon @Casadena.
Weekend went well! Saturday was Chiquita's concert which was great. We took Chiquito and for a 4th grader he enjoyed himself. DH visited his dad in the morning and we chilled that night.
Sunday I had Chiquita off to religious class, Chiquito had baseball try outs and then he and Chiquita served at mass. It was Chiquito's first time!
FIL is out of the hospital and recovering at home. They think it was strep throat that may have spread and he continues to be on antibiotics. The episode reinforced that MIL does not pay attention like she thinks she does and this is foreshadowing what I know is going to be more stress than DH is going to want as they age. That said - it's a weight off him at the moment.
i hope you guys feel better soon @Casadena and @charlotte989875
great job! @MyNameIsNot
I’m in DMV hell right now. I made an appointment online because my license is expiring and this was the only one that was on a day off. I show up and they’re not even doing appointments. They’re making everyone wait in the same line outside. So wtf is even the difference between trying to make an appointment? I could have taken care of this weeks ago then if I was just going to show up and wait in line anyways. And I’m stuck in the line outside and it’s raining. Ugh.
Feel better @charlotte989875 and @Casadena and I’m so sorry you missed your gala! Healing vibes your FILs way @banana468
I've never seen her so .... enthralled is literally the best and only way to describe it. She wouldn't sit down to watch - she had to lean on the bars.
All the kids were up and watching "let it go" and the dress change was truly amazing.
The stage work was so crazy to watch.
Olaf was a puppet, but the puppetier was so good, he blended right in.
Sven was a person in a costume but i truly had zero idea how .... my inlaws sent me a video later on that.

{we've discovered recently she's a chewer - she was excited, and overwhelmed}
Anyways she was so good and it was so fun, and she loved it so much
Disney on ice is in like 2 weeks (march 9th) and BK still has no idea that's happening. Let alone Anna and Elsa meet and greet
I've already started packing up my long sleeve shirts. It's gonna be so nice out! It's above freezing today, and in just a tshirt, sweater and jacket i was too hot. Definitely swapping jackets. No more winter coat!
@MissKittyDanger, I'm glad BK liked Frozen so much! It must have been such a great feeling for you all to see her so happy and excited.
Especially having more than one child to consider, it makes a lot of sense you'd want their schedules similar.
@short+sassy i absolutely had what i call "parent tears" - the emotional tears of being a parent but you're not sad. It's emotions of seeing your kid just so enjoying it.
