I see ibuprofen and Jell-O in her future.
When Becca shuffles coffee-producing devices in my kitchen: “Nobody puts espresso machine in the corner!”
Streaks, I break them.
I bought a hose last week so I could water the new trees. This week, it rained pretty much every day. We’re under a flood watch and a river flood warning right now.
Figures.
Madeline’s adventure with braces started today with a visit to insert spacers. I also rescheduled her braces… application? installation? insertion? for the day after the reading SOLs (Standards of Learning — Virginia’s required standardized tests) rather than the day before, picked up pudding and Jell-O cups for her lunches, and bought normal (not super-extra-strong-I-mean-awesome) ibuprofen.
Wednesdays are $1 skate night at the local rink. I may have been a child in the ’80s, but I’m pretty sure I wasn’t my current shape and size. I skated for an hour and then decided to stop before I wasn’t able to walk the next day.
Skating rink concessions haven’t changed much.
This morning started out way too early — the little girls and I were in the car at 6:45 for a 7:30 appointment with our new orthodontist. Guess who needs braces?
Both of them. Madeline starts hers in about two weeks, and Abby gets a recheck in six months. Fun times ahead.
In other news, the hammock is awesome.
Do you see what I see?
There it is. (Also, holy color shift, Batman!)
Today I cleaned the fridge, helped the girls get their lunch components prepped for the week, and bandaged Madeline’s thumb — such an awkward thing to bandage.
