Every year I say I don't want to register for any summer programs and every year I do. ugh. I AM strongly considering a Money management and investing course for both of my boys.
With the few years left, I have a heavy emphasis on mental health and financial literacy.

Don’t want to eat out. Don’t want to cook. I’m going to cobble together some enfrijoladas.

Taking the kids to the city after a sleepover and volunteering might not have been the best choice. But we all got our first Waymo ride and that was fun.

one's going with friends and the other to a sleepover. Now it's time for my Christmas gift. Free time to do whatever the EFF I want!

A fun side effect of volunteering is meeting other private school parents and getting the scoop on the HS’s we are applying to. It’s a nice ice breaker to a couple of hours of running around together.

For some reason the first thing that comes to mind about Christmas with my in-laws is the year they opened presents without us.

I nurture my kids relationship with them for my kids. But I really don’t like those people. Wtf was that.

Things that scare me but shouldn't, but do:
Winged eyeliner
Eyelash strips
flipping bubble eggs
backing into my garage when people are watching.

13 and I really are the epitome of Mama Didn't Raise No Fool. 16 on the other hand, likes to learn his lessons the hard way. He gets that from his daddy who doesn't care to learn any lessons lol.

I keep telling my kids Waymo! Is the new slug bug 👊🏼

Trying to get the energy to get ready to deliver this Cane's to 13's class party. I hope they all have the best time! But I look super fodonga and don't want to show up to school that way, today.

Just taught 16 how to pump my gas. He has his permit and is now officially the gas pumper.

I called this woman out today for not picking up her dog poop outside of school. She called me crazy and a Karen. I calmly said call me whatever you want, but you still need to pick up your dog poop.

Any coincidence what today’s Wordle is? #nospoilers

Just when you think *maybe* the world isn't out to get you, you break a large glass jar of homemade coffee creamer 10 minutes before your most important meeting of the week. I am at a loss for words right now.......🔪

I think it would be alot worse if my manager were smart and mean. Dumb and rude? I can handle that but I do pray for patience.

Lately I've been leaving my phone in the car when I go to mass. This week I made the kids too. They promptly turned off Bluetooth so no one would break into my car for their very old model iPhones 😆

All so we can be lazier and have our work done for us. It’s the end of times fr fr

I had my arm resting on a very fragrant weighted lavender neck wrap. It knocked me out from 7-11. I was so pissed but sometimes these things happen at my age ig

What is the thought process around controlling your kids? I understand keeping them safe. But telling 13 he can't wear sweats to the dance and 16 that he can't put a big ass Christmas tree in his room? WHO CARES.
December 4, 2025 at 6:17 PM
16 cleared EIGHT MF'N tacos last night. 13 is going to be pissed that his brother ate his food but he wanted to eat his leftover udon so 🤷‍♀️
I hate cooking but love that my boys enjoy my food. It's the only motivation I have to cook. Also, I cannot mentally stomach eating out or processed food much.

Waiting for a weighted vest to hit Marshall's or the thrift store. Cmon now mama doesn't pay retail!
December 4, 2025 at 3:49 PM
I swear I cancelled Spotify Premium due to ICE ads but they still gave me a Wrapped 🫣

After I cancelled, 16 joined a family account with his friends. They all pay $4 a month 🤣

I object but I can't make him quit and I get it. It's so good it really is a sacrifice.

Throwing away the desserts last night was so easy. I don't want to see another brownie, cookie, or piece cake until Christmas. I made myself a nice sweet potato hash with eggs this morning. Keeping it gluten free with minimal dairy as well.

Just trashed it all right now. We're eating clean M-F to lose the Turkey weight and prepare for the Christmas weight 🫣

It’s been a few days since Thanksgiving. It's just about time to deal with those refrigerated leftovers.

I kept busy today to trying to get my mind off yesterday. It didn’t work but I finished 13’s applications, listed a bunch of resell items, and decorated for Christmas. I had my elves crafting while I put up lights and garland.
