Uuuugh.
Good morning. Having almost dried out, it's raining with enthusiasm.
doggo woke me at 4:30am by barfing, gave up trying to go back to sleep at 5:30, now at work
this should be fun..not. I have to attend a 2 hour meeting at county EMS from 10-12 today in addition to doing the short bus thing. The joys of wearing two hats. My boss needs to get off his ass and hire a new Ops Mgr or start paying me a lot more if he wants me to stick around.

Finished building up my Smuggler yesterday and took it out for my first ride in the woods this year. Had a bit too much air in my suspension, but this thing is amazing. My last bike was V1 Bronson which has a rather short TT. On paper the numbers are very different, but the SBG geometry feels very neutral. It feels like a mini monster truck, but it corners like it is on rails and it crawls thru the slow techy gnar with very little effort. It will be a great bike for riding in the Maine woods.
Now work and another ride on it tonight. Party.

Still feel sleepy. Kids were a pain last night: Mariko had an epic tantrum ostensibly about her wanting me to fill her water bottle (she’s perfectly capable of doing this herself so I told her that she must do it) and Yuna came out 3 times after bedtime to squeeze out two drops of pee. At least they were down and settled by 7:45. Exhausting.
Been busy trying to get everything organized, extra stuff sold, and stuff packed up for the impending move. Real estate agent is coming over tomorrow to discuss timing and stuff. Shit's gonna get real real fast.
Took a day off to recognize the uterus eviction day and am spending it with a likely-going-nowhere job interview in the city, terrible traffic experience included. Perhaps I will get me a bruins jersey on my way home? 
The playoffs are not the same without the Habs, that's for sure.
I am screwing up this whole paid severance period totally. Just signed up my second consulting job.

Tired. Hannah is back to daycare today. CO teacher strike is today (which I totally support), so we had to find somewhere to drop Haley. Thankfully we were able to get Haley into the kindie class at Hannah's school for the day, otherwise I would have missed another day this week. Nothing like taking off most of a week for no actual fun.
Wifey and I were talking about the option of me leaving work and watching the kids until Hannah is a toddler (~2 years) - basically until my securities licenses are close to expiring. My effective income after the cost of daycare is ~$26k net ($32k gross) less. That would give me time to get my CFP finished and get her through the baby phase. We ran the numbers last night and while she would need to get a pretty substantial raise, it's not out of possible range though. She has saved the company a massive amount of money (very high six figures with another $500k+ on the table) and the sales are up since she took control of marketing. It might actually be feasible and with my job/skillset, I can step back into career with no issues. We have friends who have asked to do a baby watch swap (2 days-2 kids, 2 days-no kids, 1 day-1 kid) as well, so that makes that feasible as well.
And... I just got a call that Layla was walking around the neighborhood.Garage door was open and the house door didn't fully close. Neighbor threw her back in and closed both doors. Apparently she tried to lick him to death.

Rode to work, riding to the ride, riding the ride, then riding home. My back already hurts.
Yes.

Pro tip: go ride your bike.
I'm certain this has been mentioned before on this forum, but I am available for #funemployment consultation.
that sounds decidedly anti-monocle.
i've never seen an unemployed monocle. or a stay at home monocle, if you will.
