I definitely looked it up. Unfortunately, they can refuse to fill a script on “religious grounds”, but they have to either allow another pharmacist at the store to fill it or arrange for another pharmacy to fill it. At that point it was 4:00 AM and after spending 8 hours in the hospital we weren’t waiting on the next pharmacist to show up. We were able to get it filled pretty quickly at a pharmacy down the road.
Son picked up a spare during the first frame of the day and celebrated like he just beat Ernie McCracken. Only thing missing was a "who do you think you are? I am!"
Covid was a blessing from a sickness perspective. (We have been fortunate enough to not be directly impacted.) I’m happy to be back out there, but goddamn fuck the rest of the shit that comes from mingling with the general population. We are on cold/virus #2 in as many months. While I’ve been lucky (read: strong man immune system) enough to not catch them, my family has been brought to their knees with this shit. I think it’s day 8 this round with someone in the house having a fever, the cacophony of coughing is enough to drive a sane man berserk, and the general malaise really wears me down. Another 16 months of no sickness is sounding really good at this point.
Daughter is feeling ill from jet lag and allergies so I’m spending the rest of the Fourth curled up with a sleeping two year old. Pretty excellent tbh.
4 yo used scissors to carve up the entire surface of our dining room table (that my grandfather made 50 years ago). Who wants my kids?
Think of this as a wonderful opportunity to cross-post in the woodworking and homeowner’s thread in a month when you have painstakingly resurfaced/refinished the table. Also, pics?
This is basically what our kitchen table looks like. 3 kids have done a number on it. I’ve just been full fuck it mode with it. We’ll get another table when the kids are older.
I was expecting worse. Not ideal but I would plan on letting it ride for a couple years and then sand and refinish it. That would save you heartache if it happens again. Your grandpa built a beautiful table. Built it well too which is good because it looks like it could handle several refinishes if need be.
This won’t help but the week we got a new custom made high top table for our basement I had 2 friends over for MNF. I went upstairs to get the pizza and asked them to watch my 2-year old. When I came back he was hammering a coaster in to the table top while they argued about fantasy football. He landed some gouges and scratches. I can relate.
Kid/daughter #2 is in the oven. Late Jan/early Feb delivery date. Kid was measuring five days ahead at the ten week checkup
Here’s kid #1 having her first DQ dipped cone. She dropped it on the ground about a minute after the photo. Daycare reopens next week. Watching a kid all day is exhausting, the daycare folks better be well paid. She also has a pretty sweet mullet because the hair on top just grows so slowly.
No. He’s smart as whip. Just can’t sit still or concentrate on what he’s doing. If it’s a quick hard problem he’ll knock it out. Just not something that requires prolong focus.
Levi is just ridiculous, I don’t know how we got so lucky. He finally got cranky the last 30 minutes of a 9.5 hour road trip and my wife had to jump in the back seat with him. We only had 45 minutes of stops with him out of the car seat and he only napped for 1.5 hours. This kid just continues to confound me, in a good way.
Oh I know it is coming, just don’t know when. My nightmare is he saves it all for his teens. You know like, I didn’t become a dad until 43 and he gets me right back on track to being a grandpa at 57 or some bullshit like that.
My boy loves Bluey right now and is really starting to talk a bunch. These things coinciding has resulted in him walking around the house just non stop saying G’day in an Australian accent like he’s Steve Irwin.
I hate to rain on your parade, but my kids are great travelers too. We did 7 hours in the car today. No electronics, no fussing, just playing/reading/drawing in the backseat the entire time. They proceeded to spray sunscreen on each other (and all the furniture) in the dining room within an hour of being home because they still wanted to be at the beach. What I’m saying is, based on my experience, kids that travel well will also grease your shit up with coconut flavored spf 50.
My youngest turns 1 today. Time flew compared with the first. Guess we’re going to shoot for a third.
my 4.5 year old is now terrified of thunder and lightning. so much so that he is reluctant to go outside if it's even a little cloudy. and if there is thunder or lightning he will have nearly a panic attack. It started a school when he found out that a classmate's cousin died being struck by lightning. We have tried talking to him about how safe he is and how unlikely it is that he gets struck, but there is now a mental block there. It only popped up last week but it's quite upsetting to see him like this. It doesn't help that has been storming every day for weeks now.
How do I keep my child in his room? Is taking us 30-45 minutes a night of picking him up and putting him back. He is 2.5.
you really want to party put them on the knob backwards and you cant really reach the lock in the middle
