So close, Kid, the correct answer is your hat. Your hat is stupid.

When we went to London, our credit card wasn’t working, until someone was like “oh, we have to get the OLD machine to scan this.”

While providing tech support for my FIL:

FIL: What's that screen?

ME: The terminal. You should never use it.

FIL: Never?

ME: So you know how I'm allowed to watch you open the electrical panel and swap out breakers, but I'm not allowed to ever open up it myself?

FIL: Ah! I understand, thank you.

HE WOULDN’T TAKE IT OFF PHIL

Ten year old decided to be a praying mantis this year for Halloween, and I found this absolutely horrifying mask for him.

A large child who is dressed like a praying mantis, hiding behind my couch.

Me time, Johnny tore down a blanket fort and said “Henry, we’re rebranding” and what have I done to these children?

Sometimes he needs a thing, and I ask him if that’s by COB or EOD and also requests that I get the fuck out of here with that. He just doesn’t understand synergy, but we’re gonna circle back on it by COB.

I was dicking around on TikTok and when my husband walked in, I told him I was working, because I have to social media for work. He implied I was dicking around, and I said “I’m crushing KPIs in here” and he told me to “get the fuck out of his house with that.”

It’s bonkers. I play in a community orchestra! They do not pay me! I get nothing from this arrangement *except* joy and fulfillment.

“We’ll get to the bottom of this!” You have a diagnosed problem, you idiot.

I have some really specific amnesia wherein I forgot that I have autoimmune problems. Not like, “oh I’m just so symptom-free I hardly noticed,” it’s more like “why am I so dizzy, what’s happening?” You got your autonomic nervous system on temu, babe, that’s what’s happening.

Well, a bike trailer for Hank, he was itty bitty still. I used it to bike him to school a few years later.

Scaroline @carolinemoore.bsky.social · 4d

In 2020, the best purchase we made as far as increasing our quality of life was bikes for the whole family. This year, it is comfy chairs and tiki torches so that we can porch sit in the evenings.

I pass this every week driving to orchestra practice, and it usually has a Volkswagen Beetle on it. But for the last month or so, it’s been a boat.

A silo, I think, with a boat on top of it.

What a stupid asshole.

Scaroline @carolinemoore.bsky.social · 5d

Four. At least for small children, our kid ate four bananas at my mom’s house and got so constipated we had to take him to the hospital.

Scaroline @carolinemoore.bsky.social · 6d

Yup. But they’re also not allowed to complain to me if another kid slides into them, that is the life you chose little friend.

I started my day showing my 5 year old how to shoot a bow at a Cub Scout event, so Imma crash real hard any second now, it’s been a long one.

I did a serious marketing pivot in 2020 when basically anyone who was getting married was having a small wedding, and I’ve kinda been doing that ever since.

I used to do like 20-30 of these a year, but now I mostly do what a 30 Rock character called “non-denominational goof around weddings.” Much smaller guest list, usually smaller or no wedding party, doesn’t adhere to any standard timeline of events, but also usually less dance floor shenanigans.

Also I got to meet a penguin named Wyatt, all weddings should have penguins.

It’s been a bit since I’ve photographed a traditional wedding, but man watching folks go ham on the dance floor to Party Rock has not lost its charm.
