Our winter has been fairly mild this year. Not nearly the amount of snow we usually get and the super cold days we only got about 2 of those. I feel like this means if we didn't get Winter during Winter then it will be a cold year again. I want my Spring and Summer warm and hot dammit!
Let's see if my prediction holds true. But I will definitely be happy if it doesn't 😄

Our teachers are still on strike and driving me crazy. They have a PD day on Friday (were on strike last Friday), and striking again on Monday and Thursday. Also refusing to write up report cards. They are no where near settling as the premier of our Province does not back down and has maintained that we need to keep the budget down for a couple of years. At this point they might end up fully striking and my kid will go into Grade 1 so behind.

I mistakenly thought prophylactic antibiotics would be considered preventative medicine by the insurance company. That's a $500 mistake. 😫

Bc for dental it’s supposed to be covered M has been on them since birth for UTI prevention. It will go to our deductible, but it's a little over $40/month. With the other plan it would have been $5.

I don’t think I updated yesterday, but I felt pretty sick last week. I even went to urgent care to rule out strep. My rapid was negative, but I got a call yesterday (7 days after appt) telling me my culture was positive and I needed to be on antibiotics. I felt bad that I have exposed so many people. I’m taking the kids in tomorrow for swabs. I don’t think they have symptoms, but I really couldn’t be sure with the baby. I’m too worried about complications of not treating it. It’s overboard, but since all 3 have had strep in their classes it will at least help me sleep easier.

So I have the same thoughts for the delay and those exposed. But rest a little easier that the strains that don't respond to the rapid test are generally milder strains that often don't get treated.

It's official, our 4k program is going to 4 days a week next year. M is going to be a beast while he adjusts. He also has been regressing on potty training. When he gets constipated he refuses to use the potty at all and is holding it (or maybe holding it is causing constipation, idk). Then we start all over in training. There has got to be a better way, but I haven't figured it out. FX he figures it out before school starts.

Who has read the Call of the Wild? Is it appropriate to take my dog obsessed 5yo to the movie? The movie is rated PG but previews look scary. Does the dog die at the end and is it in a horrible way?

I got bored of the news and have been watching too much hgtv on the treadmill instead, for the last couple weeks. I now have big plans of redoing the powder room, blowing out the master bathroom, putting in a mud room at the lake house with an outdoor shower, updating the entryway and giving the dining room & living room more of a cottage/farmhouse feel 😈🤦🏻♀️. I need a renovation addict support group . And DH wants to finish the attic with a bonus room and bathroom and thinks it’s going to cost less than $20k 🤣😂🤣

I've only watched parts of 2 different episodes, but she seems to put wallpaper and tile on everything. She had custom wallpaper made with the couple's love notes written on it and put it up in the kitchen 🥴 I can see maybe putting that in the master bedroom, but definitely not the kitchen.

I don’t like her stuff. She put spoons all over a room once on the walls and I’ve never forgiven her for that.

Last night Ds1 had to have his eyelid glued. Ds2 cut him with a scissor. Dd was sitting there scrapbooking when it happened and didn’t do anything even when Ds1 was crying. Ds2 came to get me but I was already on my way.
Fast forward after we came home ds2 didn’t seem to understand he did anything wrong Bc he said he did it by accident. Then we told him he was losing tv and chicken nuggets and he lost his mind and came after me with his fists. He was put straight to bed.
Today he came after me again Bc he couldn’t have nuggets and he also climbed on the counter and got the scissors and was tormenting Ds1 saying he was going to cut his eye again.
He is my super good kid but since he started preschool he started raising his fists.
I don’t know what else to do with him? Suggestions?

Oh my goodness luvboston - that's scary. And sorry your ds2 is in a tough phase. Dont know what to suggest though. What was your dd's consequence for ignoring/ not getting you or doing anything else useful when your ds1 was hurt and crying?
