So, I am sad now! Dropped Sicilia off at preschool. All the other youngins are screaming, crying, throwing fits...not wanting their mommas to leave. MINE...tells me...I play Daddy! Go! While pushing me out the door!

That's really good actually. Give it a few weeks and it gets easier for you. Sicilia is fine. Dan not so much.
Seems like everytime I try to golf we get rain or something else happens this month. Been 2 weeks since I've been out. Hoped to play tonight.... nope 70% chance of rain this afternoon. I just want to play some golf before winter hits!

Since I work nights, it has been me and her together all day since she was born. I have been away from her only 4 times in almost 3 years. But, now I do have time to play 9+ holes every Tues/Thur!

I don't have to burn it or find new space. One of the wife's expensive candles handled the situation.
That's one of the damnedest things I've encountered in nearly 30 years of law practice.

No, but I have gone to a golf course 70 miles from home riding with my buddy, only to discover I brought two left golf shoes. I tried to buy a pair in the pro shop, but I am a 13W and that ain't usually an easy purchase. I played in my tennis shoes and actually only slipped on one swing all day 36 holes.

I am a cubmaster for a cub scout pack that is chartered by a Catholic Parish. Just got an order to cease all activity until all leaders can go through catholic youth protection training. We are a week into our program with multiple paid members. Why couldnt this have been taken care of over the summer? Or at least some advance notice given to get it done BEFORE we start the program...
Then I go to a work meeting and get told we are doing a horrible job for one of our customers. This customer keeps pushing their work load back every week with no explanation, so with our backlog of work to do, we move them to the back burner. The account rep only stated they were unhappy and we needed to get our level of service up. Through further questioning, I was able to glean that we needed to be inspecting their vehicle 2 weeks in advance of their intended sale date instead of 1 week like we do for everyone else...
I am so done with people who cant communicate effectively and end up setting me up for failure!!!!!!

Fridays have started to match mondays from a work standpoint and workload. Started with calls at 8 am and literally only put the phone down to change calls every hour until 4 pm. Brain is fried
My brother in law was hit by a drunk driver this morning about 5AM. He owns a Little Debbie distributorship and was pulling his 30ft trailer. The driver hit the trailer on a 2 lane highway going the opposite direction. Everyone was fine. The funny part of the story was a lady was following the drunk driver home...making sure he got home safe. She pulled over during the accident. The cops gave her a breathalyzer test too and she failed and was handcuffed and put in the patrol car. That's the definition of two birds, one stone!
Kiddo stung by a wasp on his middle finger today. Nice color change on his arm, and a trip to emergency just as a precaution.
Never heard this boy cry so loud, and so long as he did today. Its a wonder he has any voice at all right now.

That is no fun.
That’s both terrible and an amazing story all in one. Glad everyone is fine.
And sense everyone is fine - let’s talk zebra cakes and my need to eat one now.

All sorts of sore and a swollen finger. Color change has gone down. Watching him, but hopefully the worst is behind us.
Stupid apples falling off the apple tree in the yard, wasps are on all of them....

poor little man.
I leave for Italy tomorrow. Spent the morning running last minute errands and got caught in a traffic jam. Arrived at the dry cleaners at 12:10, they close at 12. Had to rethink some of my clothing options for the trip.
Get into the house and my cat is limping. Check her out and leg and hip seem to be fine, but she cries when I touch her paw. Call the vet, of course they're closed too. I think she either caught her nail and ripped it out or she stepped on something that bruised her paw. She was licking her paw earlier but has stopped, so if there was something there she got it out, She's doing better now, House sitter will watch her and if she's still limping on Monday call the Vet and take her in if they recommend it.
Running around packing and the house seems to be too hot. Check the thermostat and it's reading 81. Call the cooling company, they come out, compressor needs replacing. Of course they don't have the part. Arrange with house sitter to coordinate repair.
