@FarrisGoldstein I remember feeling the exact same way once my mom passed. It was like I had been holding my breath for 3 years and suddenly could exhale. Awful and a relief at the same time

[Katie @ktmcsea]

@FarrisGoldstein I’m so sorry

*passing a giant antenna in a corn field*
@k5em : Look at that antenna. I think I’ve worked that guy. I recognize those double yagis.
Me: if I showed you a pic of your cousin would you recognize them?
@k5em : no.

I suffered a fart attack today. No I didn’t misspell that. My youngest son leapt on my bed in his underwear, bent over, spread his cheeks, and farted. Prognosis is poor. For him.

@CMcKayFL @k5em This is next year’s goals😂

Not sure if a plate full of charcuterie is on quite on theme for field day @k5em 🧐

@FarrisGoldstein Justin actually snort laughed when he read this

My oldest son has to do a fitness test for scouts and I offered him 50$ if he could do a sub 10 minute mile. The younger wanted in too. And @k5em wants to do it to prove he’s still young and can kick their asses.

100% I’m watching them all get sick on the side of a track tonight

Optimist: my eggs are smiling at me!
Pessimist: even the eggs mock me

@FarrisGoldstein That method works great with our puppy too

Who’s got two thumbs and is so extra that he 3D printed a personalized name tag keychain for every kid who participated in the Elementary Science Fair.

This guy. @k5em

Things I love about rec soccer:

1. Middle aged white men coaches mansplaining soccer to be as soon as we meet.
2. Recreation teams made up of kids that play club soccer playing my team of neighborhood kids with little experience.
3. American sports culture

@FarrisGoldstein The most disconcerting part about today was that the answer was “generalized tween boy smell”. 🤢

[Katie @ktmcsea]

Playing one of my least favorite parenting games called, “What’s that smell?”

It’s the game where even when you win, you lose.

The 8 yr old made us coffee this morning, start to finish. This parenting thing is finally starting to pay dividends. @k5em

Vet: After the spay, I recommend a surgery suit for her. Its like a doggy onesie and it can be used in lieu of a cone….
Me: (hand up to stop her, already on the Amazon app) Lady, there’s no need to keep selling once you’ve made the sale. You had me at doggy onesie.

In a first after many flights, my kid got sick on a plane. In the aisle. The @AlaskaAir 365 flight attendants were so sweet to him and made him feel like it was no big deal and got him ginger ale and a bag and some food if he wanted to try it. Alaskan customer service is 🤌🏻
