Good Things Friday (47)
January 10, 2020
1. Though PiC warped the lid of our Pyrex terribly in the microwave, they honored the warranty and sent us a new lid promptly.
2. I’m really happy that my hands can handle Pyrex now – this time last year, it was not possible. This means our use of plastic wrap has gone down at least 50%, possibly more!
3. We traded drop-off and cooking shifts mid-week. Though it shortened my work day, I liked going to pick up JB and coming home to dinner being served. I don’t mind cooking 90% of the time, it’s what works for us normally, but a break from that job is really nice too!
4. We FINALLY got our replacement waterproof dog beds in! Seamus and Sera both like it very much.
5. We’ve finally committed to meeting with our contractor to see what kind of work we can get done this year. I’m narrowing down my Must Haves and hoping that we can break up our landscaping work into about three stages so that we can at least create one safe space for Seamus to enjoy before he’s too much older. He’s slowing down a lot, and having a safe yard space to roll around in would be so nice for him.
6. Good news: all the major events I was still waiting on dates for this year have been scheduled so now I can get to work on logistics. Bad news: Unfortunately the timing of both are terrible! We will make them work, but gosh they are such bad timing and are going to make for a tough summer.
Glad to hear that Pyrex provided a new lid. It’s necessary to have the lid especially for their glassware.
Oh wow, landscape work!! Hopefully you can provide a update on it as the year goes on and maybe some pictures. Hope it goes well!!
We have a couple of trips that may happen this year. First we are planning to head to the Sierras for TwC’s birthday in March so he can do some sledding and enjoy the snow. We are for certain that we are going.
Our second trip this year that might happen is to NYC in the summer to attend a relative’s wedding. We are still up in the air about it because of we don’t know if our boys can handle a six hour plane ride twice. Their may be lots of crying during the flight so that is something we will discuss as it gets closer to summer.
If you do decide to go to NYC in the summer, I hope the flight goes smoothly!
