Okay...

 Well, um, hi. Everything is terrible.

First off, Esther has a temperature of 103 and it's our first day of school. Can we all laugh together? So I don't start crying? Reuben is sick too, but not as a bad. Becky feels better after her herb bath.

School? Yeah, didn't happen. 

Screen time? Yeah. Uh. Let's not talk about it. Esther is two and only wants me to hold her unless she's listening to Elsa and Anna sing. Or Bluey. She loves Bluey. I think we watched at least 12 episodes today.

I did notice that I made an error in math in my budget post so I fixed that and I deleted the title of my last blog because no, there will not be a part two to our last week of summer vacation, because that was full of arguing with my husband and crying and being so anxious I couldn't move...but we won't talk about that.

Everything is fine in that department now. I think. Communication is hard and this is 13 years of marriage in a economy that's beyond dumpster fire and I have three children (who are wonderful) who desire food at a bare minimum of three times a day. Why is everything so expensive? 

I'm going to make cookies now and who cares if we are all getting sick, this is a cookie kind of day. 

It's a good thing I have Jesus.
