If you put the kids to bed 20 minutes earlier tonight, tomorrow, and Saturday, you will be all set for daylight saving time on Sunday. It won't work, of course, but it feels good to have a plan
Kristi Noem got canned, and in totally unrelated news, I'm very excited for SNL this week

Today in @thepom.bsky.social I'm sharing a breakdown of a typical school day for me. I love getting a peek into other people's lives and I hope this feature will encourage you to send in one of yours! www.the-pom.com/p/day-in-the...
kill the imposter syndrome in you head because not only is there someone out there doing it worse than you, they're also using chat gpt to do it
Anyways.
No they're definitely people!
Looked this one up but sadly no!
Not this one but thanks for looking!
And no, I promise it is not any of the "little girl + pig + + mud + picture book" Google search results. π I tried that already!
being dirty? And then the mother discovers the joys of mud, I THINK. There may also have been a mud pit beside the house for actual pigs. The illustrations, iirc, were kind of an exaggerated Quentin Blake style. I think the little girl's name began with an E, not Ermengarde but something like that.
My sister and I are trying to remember the name of a picture book we read as kids. It's about a little girl who loves to play in the mud although her mother always wants her to be clean. One day she gets SO dirty that the mother thinks she turned into a pig. But then she realizes she's happier...
Same! I don't agree with my local church on everything and I have a lot of issues with the denomination as a whole, but I really would love to see some reform (har har) from within. I'm just not strong enough to argue with theobros about it.
To be fair the PCA kinda IS a mess at any given time which is why I don't get involved and let @ozymomdias.bsky.social argue with the beard bros
You know how Eleanor Roosevelt said that great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, and small minds discuss people? Well, me and my girls contain all the multitudes.
People notice!!

Honestly I need all of you dudes in the social media-verse to know that yes, women DO talk about you, and yes we do share info on who treats people with respect and who has creep vibes.
I was coming here to say this. Razor precision and appropriate boundaries.
My 5yo is currently loving this one too! 2yo still prefers Super Why
Ain't that the daily ever-lovin' truth
5yo ate one bite of soup (chicken + broth) and straight up refused the biscuit. 2yo ate a single noodle and all the butter off the biscuit, then crumbled the rest.

I'm gonna let you guys guess how much of this toothsome dinner my kids ate
A boiling pot of soup on a glass stove top
I made an appropriate amount of from-scratch chicken noodle soup for our family of 4! We will not be eating it for weeks! π₯³ (Biscuits are in the oven)
