Terrifying Tuesday
in Wedding Woes
I hope all of you are making it through the week!
Re: Terrifying Tuesday
Yesterday Chiquito had another game so it was another busy night getting him to his game and Chiquita to fencing practice.
After DH didn't feel well AGAIN so last night I went over his body with a flashlight to look for bullseyes checking for Lyme. Didn't find a bullseye but did see a very odd spot on his leg so that's been photographed and sent off to the doc.
Aaaand as of last night we're a family where we are Santa and Elves but now understand how the magic works. Chiquito had major tears, needed HUGE hugs and a half hour after realizing that the Elves, Santa and the Easter Bunny were us he realized that the tooth fairy was too and...man I knew it was coming but the kid can break your heart with his pouty lip and sad eyes.
Otherwise, there's not a lot going on. I slept all through the night, which was shocking. I woke up feeling rested though, even if I did have to immediately run to the restroom. I'll be in training all day tomorrow. I'm not looking forward to it, but I am looking forward to the new software and no more virtual machine for work!
@banana468 sorry to hear DH is still not feeling well. Hopefully you guys can get some answers and relief soon.
Boys are at very fun ages right now and I'm getting more and more settled with not having any more kiddos. We always planned on 3-4 but after medical trauma, fertility struggles, etc it's just really nice to enjoy the dudes getting older and not having be watching them literally every second of every day. THey're getting independent and are so fun to to hang out with
I have golf league tonight for work and looking forward to the exercise and company in the overcast 70+ weather. Have a work meeting and lunch today and have already scoped out my order. New restaurant for me and excited to try.
Awww at Chiquito’s latest discoveries @banana468
The getting-more-independent age is awesome @Casadena, glad you’re getting there!
Crazy morning at work. The twins’ spring concert is this evening. I guess pretty ssdd otherwise.
sorry the magic is now gone for kiddos @banana468
@Casadena I bet you just love enjoying the time with them. They sound like such great kids
I booked another vacation. Lol. So I have 2 small road trips in June and July, Canada in July, Canadian cruise in September, now a historical south trip in October and Europe in November. This year is my year of musicals/shows and travel. I need to make 2026 my year of my last tat before I change my mind on getting one. Or, at the least have zero money for one. Haha.
@banana468, sorry for Chiquito. I hope your husband is better soon.
Just working today, not much else going on. Going to dinner tonight with an acquaintance who gets these deals from local restaurants to act as a mystery customer. She got one for tonight at a restaurant in downtown Houston. I've been there with her before but the service is mixed and it's not a cheap place. So my expectations are low. I hope it's worth it tonight.
I've been looking a shirts to get the grandsons for family pictures at the beach next month. It is difficult to coordinate 8 people (or 10 when DS1 and DIL join us). I think I have some contenders though. I've been dealing with a headache today so haven't done much other than working out and a chiropractor appointment.
I'm sad but this is a rite of passage and it's time for Chiquito to know. I'd hate to see him teased because he wants to hold on and he found out in a safe space at the table with DH and me. So...as sad as it is to burst a bubble he's still getting Christmas presents, and now he can be a creator in the magic.
