The girls, me, and Mrs all have some sort of mild plague.

3yo does not and he's been practicing his Macho Man flying elbow drop on us all day and cackling.

The children yearn for stationary targets.

Keeping the 3yo out until 10pm went about as well as you might expect.

Got some lamb that needs to be used up. Let's grill it up and use some to make soup and the rest for chili.

you know what's fun? booking like 6 different hotels / airbnbs for a weeklong trip a few months in advance that all have very generous cancellation policies and then circling back a week before the trip to see if anything better opened up for similar/cheaper prices and rebooking

invigorating!!!!

Me, about to throw out some shoeboxes: yes, this is reasonable and practical

Also Me, remembering the 2-3x/yr when we get an email at 9:52pm to the effect of: GUESS WHAT LOSERS, YOUR KID(S) NEED TO BRING HALF A DOZEN SHOEBOXES TOMORROW OR WE WILL DEEM YOU AS UNFIT PARENTS AND REPORT YOU TO CPS

I tried their yellow can (golden lager?) and didn't love it. And the Athletic IPA is fine. But this one has...depth? Idk. Not switching over completely, just mixing em into the rotation.

Two thoughts: 1) the idea of a tall boy NA makes me chuckle, 2) this might be my fav so far.

In-laws got back from a long trip today. Invited them over, said they were tired and we'd see them tomorrow. I asked "you sure? I've got all this food... I don't want it to go to waste"

They were here 15 min later and now are playing mahjong with my kids. Love it.

Church behind our house played the doxology on the bells. Sounded killer but they don't normally play anything at 6pm.

Yep. Ideal system imo would be "you get 10 sec to look, if it's not an obvious error then call stands"

Ugh. We generally don't turn the TV on until after the kids are in bed on weeknights. Put the Cubs game on as a little treat.

Chaos. Mayhem. Gnashing of teeth.
