Junie Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 This is my diaper bag/purse that I used for most of the kids. My sister bought it for me when one of the older girls was born, but I don't remember which one. Probably dd17. I still have it and still like it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another Lynn Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) Instead of getting up early for swim practice, we got up early and drove an hour to swim the Murky Mile - an open water swim for (you guessed it), one mile! And dd had friends swimming it too, so it was fun. ETA: Hey - this is an open water swim booyah! (But it wasn't earlier, was it? weird.)

Wheres Toto Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Home Science Tools and Amazon both sell blood typing kits. We did them in one of my classes. We ended up passing on going to the beach today because it looks gloomy outside. It's ds's 15th birthday but he won't care if we go to the beach. He's still sleeping and it's noon here. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saved nearly a dozen over the past year and I finally have a reason to use them. I've been going through my pantry and using them to re-store all my dry goods that I keep in Mason jars so I can use the sealing lids for canning. Were they the GIANT jars of pickles?

I am staring at the puppy. Dh took the kids to see MIL. I do not know how people get anything done while having Labrador puppies. She is an activity all unto herself, so I am not getting to make use of the time I have alone in the house. I am very much over puppyhood at this point. I really don't understand how one puppy can have so much energy. She needs no sleep. I cringe to think of what she's going to be like as a teenager. Chester and I met a lab puppy in our neighhborhood today. He's about 4 months, and so so sweet. But a handful! Chester was in playmate heaven, even with the accompanying 12yo terrier who was so. over. those. little. Punks!

Wheres Toto Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 I ordered toddler chairs for one of my classrooms since I now have classes starting at 2 1/2 and I've had a few younger kids fall off the back of the stools I usually use. So now I have IKEA stools (20 or so), plastic kiddie chairs (6), folding chairs for teens/older kids (6), wheeled desk chairs (5). I think we should have it all covered at this point. Of course, the chairs I ordered where delivered today, a day early, when I'm not actually home. Our neighborhood is pretty quiet so they should be okay as long as the delivery guy didn't leave them right at the road so someone thinks they are going out with the trash. They're plastic so even rain shouldn't matter. The kids and I are heading home tomorrow. Probably early since I need to pick up the dog from my mother. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Dh makes an ice cream pie that is super yummy. Chocolate graham cracker crust. Let your chosen flavor of ice cream sit in the fridge to soften then blend in pudding mix. Put in fridge to set (not necessary with vanilla for some reason, it's already firm). Put Magic Shell or chocolate syrup on top. No ice cream trucks come to our neighborhood. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
