Wow, woman - talk about trials & tribulations! Welcome to the Joys of Homeownership club - we endured TWO floods in our basement, one of which was actual crap from a sewer backup!! More than 5 years later, we still haven’t replaced the carpet yet…it’s my strategy to keep my 22 yo son from moving his GF in down there!
Loved the comedy clips - you’re crushing it even when you space out…and while under invisible stress from all the things! Like a hole in your sock that no one knows about.
What I really love about your momming style is that you tenderly acknowledge what happened to Jewoo and then intentionally repair the rift. Not everyone gets that from their parent(s), as it means you have to admit to losing your 💩 and instead you get gaslit and that hurt lingers. He will remember the respect over the rage. Trust me on this!!
Oh my goodness, Brit, what a month! Love your funny and genuine take on it all. Not the same, but I also thought I had March all figured out only to have three weeks of sickness hit our house and unexpected work crop up. The universe loves to mess with our orderly plans!
I absolutely LOVE how you find the story, and eventual humor, in every single one of these incidents. Not an easy feat! Oh! My daughter and I have the same tiny hearts on our wrists, too, except ours are a tattoo we did together when she left home for college.

This is soooooo nice!! I feel SO encouraged reading all of this. It makes me so happy to hear that you watched the stand-up, too.
Two floods!! And actual crap?!?! Noooo. You were cracking me up about your son’s gf!!
And loved the image of the hole in the sock. You’re good!!

Three weeks?!?! My goodness. Hopefully you’re all back at it!! (And thank you for your kind words!)
