My new baby is going to have, like, a squirt bottle and a bowl and maybe one boat and they will probably be happier with that anyway.

My tweens still have bath toys although they almost always take showers. I asked about discarding them some time ago but was shouted down.

The only thing we contributed to this hoard was the colorful cups. Everything else is gifts from grandparents.

Godspeed.

I have bought zero bath toys.

We have many bath toys.

This math seems to happen a lot in my home when it comes to kids stuff.

I have this vision of someone tallying up all the things I’ve done wrong, and asking me “what haven’t you done?” and I can say, “I never bought a child something with batteries that made noise”

Bless. I assure you, that counts for a LOT.

Shockingly the ride-in ice cream truck my mother bought for my child somehow never got batteries put in. So strange.

Executive functioning is so, so low. Major barrier against doing anything. I’ve been here before. So I’m gonna get some motivation. Please cheer on if you have time.

I’m unfucking the house as I’m going to be gone for 5 weeks. First step, pack all the shit in the car.

today so far i have rage cleaned my kitchen cabinets which go to the 8’ ceiling and were pretty greasy near the top. now i’m starting on windows.

i have been alternating between listening to a very good book on boundaries and “break my soul” on repeat. all of this is unfucking me and my tidy but dirty house.

(i find listening to “break my soul” for like an hour minimum is a mental health requirement for me now. i can feel life force building back up in me with every repeat.)

Did you remember to pack the cooler bag? I looked for that farther down the list but didn’t see it. Now I am worried for your foodstuffs.

These are the shadowy one’s favorite track pants and the fabric is in great shape, just poor choice of seaming thread by the company making them.

stretchy zig zag stitches take me a very long time. (eta: How to Do a Zigzag Stitch by Hand (with Pictures) - wikiHow very helpful)
