Because everyone in my home has an underlying condition and that became painfully obvious this year when we got our first respiratory virus in 5yr and I’ve spent months dealing with the fall out.
We mask for us and our community.

My kid is the best!
Getting ready for bed last night, she was complaining about 6 7 and how annoying it is that the kids in boys and girls club have such a big reaction to it

Happy “can you hold my doll, here is how you take care of it” day to all the moms whose kids got new doll yesterday.
I’ve already been instructed on how to care for a baby pig twice this morning

My kids decided they needed to get up before 4am this morning
It’s now after 8:30 and my youngest is singing “Santa Claus is Coming to Town” like it’s a horror song…

When you hang out in niche parts of the internet you think it’s so small.
But watching all the posts about Adam the Woo is a reminder of how things might be niche but that doesn’t mean no one cares

Missing my grandparents tonight
Spent the last two days cooking my grandmother mothers cookies
And the packer vs bears tonight that my grandpa would have had a lot of thoughts about

All the Christmas cookies exactly where they belong.
Growing up my grandma always kept the cookies on the stairs to the attic and my cousins and I would sneak them. I was looking to see where we would put these today and then it just made sense

Mine has to be What to Expect When You are Expecting.
I was pregnant with our oldest, we went with our best friends, expecting it to be a blah movie. We had the entire place to ourselves (apparently that wasn't a hit movie in a collage town). We laughed so hard, the movie was better then expected

Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?
Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.

It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

The Funko Christmas small box games are just a gem this time of year. The rules are easy enough to remember them with a brief glance, they take less than a half hour to play and are full of IP.

A true sentence I just said to my 9yr old
“You brush your teeth with your toothbrush, not your eyeball!”

The greatest way to annoy a teacher... sell the website they have used daily for many years mid school year with little notice, shut the old website down and don't port in the old website to the new website like the email said would happen...

We are about to get more snow so might as well save some coral!
If this one and Windmill Valley are two of your favorite games you played this year, what game would you suggest next?

My youngest uses the top of our basement stairs as a place to regulate, which is great, except she regularly does this with Legos, which get left on the stairs. Today my husband made her a table so she can use her tools… and hopefully we get less Legos to the feet
