Re: open letter wednesday
Dear Self,
The laundry situation is at code orange right now. ORANGE. Every bit of dirty and clean laundry needs to be dealt with AND put away today. No excuses. Get it together. The house needs to be as spotless as is possible w/ two little beasts running around. And an emergency bag needs to be dealt with today so that you're not running around like a crazy person come Fri. morning.

Dear Em,

Dear Charlotte,
Your sweetness is amazing. But can you please try not to be such a daredevil? You make me nervous with all your climbing and running and generally devil may care attitude. I need to know that you'll be safe and sound when I'm not right on your butt to make sure that's the case. I worry about you when someone else is in charge. So please, be a little more careful. Ok??

Dear Carbon Monoxide dectors:
Going off at 1:50 this morning was NOT COOL! I do not appreciate waking up at that hour if it's not because of JJ.
Seriously annoyed,
me
Dear DH:
Sorry I made you call the Fire Dept in the middle of the night. I know it sucked. I'm exhausted too this morning. At least we're still alive today!
Love you!
Dear JJ
You Rock! I'm so sorry I had to wake you up last night when we evacuated the house
But you took it like a champ, as usual. Thanks for being such a great kid, always making us laugh. Can't wait for swim lessons later 
Love, Mama
UM..... details?
Dear Dumbass Woman in SK that does not know how to drive,
Thank you for getting into an accident with my DH yesterday while he was on his motorcycle and then leaving the scene.. you farking dumbasss. Luckily, he and the witness were able to get your plate #. I'll assume the police have already showed up at your door, so I hope you have a wonderful day
OMG, I hope your DH is alright....my husband rides a bike too!! Watch for bikes people!!!
Yes, he is ok, I meant to edit and add the update. He has some bruised ribs and a sprained ankle, and is very sore today. He was really lucky that he was wearing his gear - helmet, armored jacket, armored pants and motorcycle boots. He doesn't mess around, he had a nasty accident when he first started riding and learned his lesson.
The bike is ok I guess, mainly just cosmetic for the most part. He has crash bars on the bike for this reason... the protect all of the important stuff.
Dear life,
Please stop fvcking with me. I'm done.
