Last night, during bedtime, my kid told me I had to stay in his bed until Christmas, so I will be on bed rest until after the holiday.

I don’t know what this coffee I drove off with is, but considering it’s super sweet, I am thinking the person who ended up with my plain Jane order is going to be bummed.

My little is unable to walk or stand unassisted and has been in pt for a couple of months. Today, he used a yoga ball to pull to a stand and then rolled it away and stood for ten second. Then he did it again, and again. You’ve got this, little love. #momlife #toddlermom

@jchenwriter Congratulations!

@MarindaOnline Haven’t found it yet, but then I only recently learned I’ve been applying eye product to the wrong part of my face. You don’t put it on the dark circles; you put it on the bone

@theedifyingword Yes! Love getting a text that’s like “thanks for the box of colored pencils?”

@MarindaOnline Her specialty is audio so 🤷‍♀️

Burning the midnight oil because someone (me) mixed up her deadlines. At least I am ahead on one of my deliverables? #editor #editing #runmacrorun #zzz

When you need to work after the kids go to bed and the toddler wakes up as you lay him down…

@Pink Keep fighting the book bans! I keep seeing a billboard that says “Ban childhood poverty, not books” and I couldn’t agree more.

Just blocked someone sharing racist garbage. Don’t want to spread a message of hate but do want to say I am glad to live in a diverse community and wish bigoted assholes would shut their traps.

[Katherine (she/her) @adaylatekate]

@MarindaOnline Still here.

My littlest is starting OT and speech therapy today, in addition to the pt he is already doing. Seems like a lot for 18 months, but I keep hearing how important early intervention is. I need a handbook. #momlife

@ScaryMommy posted a mom’s comment about how the time change is a nightmare of bad sleep for her kids. The comments suggesting she just “not make a big deal about it” and “teach her kids to be flexible” kill me. WTH do you think we’re trying to do here? #momlife #nothelpful

The timer feature on my Fitbit has been huge for managing time on tasks. Did not expect to use it that way.

[Katherine (she/her) @adaylatekate]

I need all the hacks for how to look fresh and together after a wild night out…because my kids are under 5 and I’m in my late thirties. #momlife #tiredeyes

@AuthorJFuller Incredible costume. He would slay at a con. @lexithefirstcos @archerinventive Got any encouragement for a kid whose love of anime and rad costume got him bullied at school?

Just started negotiating with my company for a childcare stipend. Have conflicting feelings about this: 1)Who do I think I am, and 2)Why didn’t I ask for this earlier? #momlife #childcare #womenintheworkforce
