999 days.

The thing is is that he doesn't want to be inconvenienced. Stopping at the store is an inconvenience, but me sending him back out is a greater inconvenience so if I threaten that he will stop. If he refuses to stop I will kick him to the couch. If he refuses to go to the couch I will literally sit there kicking him until he leaves the room, goes to the couch and then he stops at the store on the way home the next day.

Only for way more than I could in store. It's only just gotten really bad again. I'll tell him to stop on his way home or not come home at all. I need to be better about this.

He does like this snore scream thing every 20 minutes or so. It sometimes wakes the kids up. So I don't think so.

He refuses because they're uncomfortable. There's a thing he wears called Mute but it's old and he refuses to replace it because he has to make an additional stop but doesn't want to.

School: Skill subjects are done daily but content (Bible Timeline, Geography, Astronomy and Literature) have not begun yet. I spend hours every day with maintenance (this has been going on for about 2 months) and hours every night awake with Matt snoring so I'm very overwhelmed.

We are debt free in 1,000 days.

Her hearing is back! I am so confused! But happy! She spent most of the day just hiding under my feet, presumably because she was scared. I didn't know what to do other than comfort her. I don't know what caused it, and it could come back, but right now she can hear and she's happy about it!

To be clear she was coming before my first post. I have no idea what happened to her.

No, she's fine. And she was running around playing with Alex and coming when called.

Our dog has gone completely deaf some time in the last few hours.

Matt: But once I leave you get snacks. John: But I like you more than snacks. Alex: I love snacks more. Matt: Really? Alex. Daddy. Leave.

The kids are frog hunting.

This is the third day in a row that I've made my step goal. I had better be careful or this might become a thing.
