Trying so hard not to lose hope but first round of IUI didn’t stick so we’re gearing up for the second round of three before we move on to IVF.

Piss all the way off, autocorrect.
Yes, I’m searching the library app for “Bunnicula” 🧛‍♂️🐰 not books about “Binoculars.” 😤

I did it!!

Almost done sewing my L’oeuf bag (pattern by Sew Liberated.) But I broke two needles in the same spot and can’t find my backup supply. 😭

Not Barnes and Noble emailing me to tell me that my cheapo membership is now on auto-renew—which has never been the case before… Oh but also I should apparently opt into the $40 premium membership… yeah no.

We’re done here.

Kiddo read me a whole Robert Munsch book before she went to bed tonight. She self-corrected all of her mistakes. She was fluent and she was expressive, making voices and affects for the characters in the story.

I am so excited that she is asking to read aloud to us now too. 🥹

I will never understand people who feel the need to pack heat to go to the Fresh Thyme. Like it’s a hipster grocery store, you get that right?

A salad is not a Salad without chickpeas, Kalamata olives and a whole pepperoncini. Change my mind.

About to make this bag:

Let the steady stream of curse words and seam ripping begin.

I feel like whomever they select as jurors in the Trump Criminal trial should have a security detail assigned to themselves and their families. Hyperbolic? Perhaps. But also perhaps not.

I have a 15 minute “Mystery Reader” time slot for Kiddo’s kindergarten class today. So naturally it’s taking me multiple hours over three days of staring at her bookshelf to pick just the right book.

I devoured all of Paper Girls in under 24 hours. Like Stranger Things but better and all girls. 9.5/10, would absolutely recommend.

I rearranged my child’s bedroom while she was at school today and I’m praying the novelty of the new room layout will be enough to conceal the fact that I purged lots of little scraps of paper she was saving from crafts that have been languishing on and around her book shelves and dresser.

Woke up at 7:43 in immediate panic. Both hubs and I forgot to set alarm for school (usually wake kiddo at 6:45.) School drop off 8:00-8:15. 🫣 miraculously we were able to get her up, dressed, fed, toileted, teeth brushed in about 20 minutes and made it to the school before the last bus had arrived. 😅 Thank goodness we live so close to the school.

I’m not saying I believe in miracles… but I’m also not saying I don’t.
