Monday things, 4/13

1. For years, I've had lightweight shorts I've worn under dresses. Not all dresses, just the swing-style dresses that are above the knee. They're usually pj shorts and usually from The Gap. However, I threw one pair away years ago and then I LOST my pair that I had from last summer. I have no idea what happened to them and honest to goodness this is what happens when you're constantly packing and unpacking and sorting clothes. So anyway, I grabbed this set from Walmart for $12 and the shorts are perfect for wearing under loose shorter dresses. 

This set also doesn't look particularly pajama-y so I would 100% wear this tank over a swimsuit in the summer.

2. If you know me, I try to keep most of my complaining to Instagram stories and not on this permanent space because the internet doesn't forget. However, in the last several weeks: Sutton was sick, I was sick, Sutton fell and had to get a staple in her head, Scott was out of the country, Scott was sick, Scott was in the hospital for what we think is/was West Nile virus and still doesn't feel great and then he's traveling a lot lately, and then this past week I broke a tooth. 

We also have to move out of this house by the end of June. Where are we going? We have some plans but we're still not sure how it's all going to shake out. We are staying in Kansas for the foreseeable future so it's not like we're moving to a new location but we do have to move houses. 

So if you're wondering why "Friday things" randomly turns into "Monday things", this is why.

Ignore the fact that the paper is upside down (sigh). This is what Wells is doing for 2nd grade math right now. Writing out the problems, using real paper, lining things up, etc. Warms my heart. 

4. I've tried to stay out of a lot of these Landfill Core stores but I really needed a new rug because our front door rug is falling apart. I also wanted to see those (hideous) viral beaded bags in person. There were multiple people there taking pictures of them! 
But the kids had some Easter money to spend so they got to look around TJ Maxx...


They got eggs filled with slime. Also...heart-warming, I guess. 


5. Mix sweetened lime syrup into your diet coke.

Sutton has been saying 'oh biscuits' for over a year now.
