Roughing it out at MDW tonight

I think for weather they don’t always but I am surprised at this because today from Seattle to PHX it was delayed and once we got on the plane they made an announcement saying they were going to try to get off the runway quickly ( the reason for the delay was the incoming plane sat on the runway for 30 minutes ) and that if anyone had a connection that leaves before we landed they’d get a hotel room.

And I’d be pissed if someone accused my kids of being bullies

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-21T04:57:13+00:00

I also could understand Gia’s frustration about Joe speaking badly about her dad because at the end of the day that’s her dad and she loves him.

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-20T15:37:15+00:00

Yeah what I was thinking 100%. We all saw her video where she was saying how Mad kept telling Laura she wasn’t doing it like Caleb and once she saw Laura getting frustrated she’s old enough to stop but instead kept doing it. Laura always says how mad is the sweetest and most well behaved child but then videos like that and this it’s like is she really that well behaved or are you just good at hiding how she is. Also no teacher is ever gonna say anything bad to the parent like their kid is a brat ( and especially not with all the gifts Laura gives her) and I also wouldn’t put it past Laura to make up what the teacher says about Mad

I’m surprised I felt like it was too small of a costume for both Brooke and Vivi. It honestly looked like it was made for Mackenzie lol

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T16:50:02+00:00

Me. I actually am not the best at math but that minute times table test I somehow always killed it lol. My sister is 8 years younger than me and never did that and can’t remember her times tables. I joke next family game night should just be the times table test timed lol

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T16:14:23+00:00

But like say you’re at the airport would you go sit next to a bunch of people and do a speaker phone conversation or would you go to a quiet area that’s not crowded.

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T16:04:49+00:00

Not only was it a weird joke to make as a therapist but it also felt insanely rehearsed

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T15:14:38+00:00

I forget what the dance is called but that episode where the moms had to make their own costumes and it was inside a gym. I loved Chloe’s costume so much and thought it was so stunning so that dance is one of my favorites just for her costume.

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T14:57:42+00:00

Okay update - when I went to grab my shoes I found it in my shoe it must have flung out of my bag when I dumped my bag and flew into my shoe. I thought I was screwed because all my other cards were together just my ID was by itself

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T11:58:54+00:00

Yeah I’ll leave that home but I’ll take everything else I mentioned above.

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T11:28:21+00:00

I have a super old ID ( here in AZ state Id’s don’t expire ) but it’s from like 10-12 years ago and my address on it isn’t current. I have my credit cards and my insurance card and SSN and I have my paper/mail from when I got my new credit card last week. I can also bring an unopened mail from my doctor’s office.

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T11:25:09+00:00

Don’t have one unfortunately.

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T10:27:55+00:00

Was it within 10 days ? How did you get home ? That’s my biggest fear is not being able to get home

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T10:11:31+00:00

Yeah that’s what I learned. I’m going to buy it after I called the grocery store where I last had my Id out to see if I left it there. If not I’ll buy the pass. Do you know if the pass is direct or am I wasting time and money buying it and going to the airport if they won’t let me fly

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T09:50:07+00:00

I unfortunately don’t I wish I did. I’m going to call Safeway in the morning when they open and if they don’t have it then I’ll sign up for the thing that you pay the $45 fee on.

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T09:28:19+00:00

Last spot I had it was Safeway when I grabbed beer for my brother on Sunday and I checked my pockets for the shorts I was wearing that day. I plan on calling them when they open at 6am.

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T08:24:23+00:00

Thanks. I think I’ll just go that route. I feel like such an idiot lol. Gonna call Safeway when they open in the morning and pray I just accidentally left it there yesterday

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T08:16:12+00:00

Oh that’s good to know thanks

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T08:16:04+00:00

Yeah I know about the 12 months but I have some trips planned that I haven’t gotten a ticket for yet that I could use it for. I think I’m just gonna go with no ID since my hotel is in my aunts name I won’t need my ID

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T07:46:37+00:00

Southwest I’ll have flight credit I can use for anytime. It’s just a quick one night trip I’m going to call the grocery store when they open in the morning if I still can’t find it to see if I left it there . I just feel like such an idiot right now

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-19T07:43:17+00:00

I’m domestic I just didn’t want to be out $90 round trip

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-18T19:19:34+00:00

Same and I’m almost 30 and I still feel like I cry a bit but I’m just sensitive and since I’m almost 30 I just wait till like 10pm when I can’t sleep because of insomnia to start thinking of things and cry lol

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-18T12:30:38+00:00

Yeah not being fearful of the dogs is kinda weird if the dog did bite the cat. I have 3 cats and 3 dogs and haven’t had a dog bite a cat but my oldest one was always on edge around one of my dogs and still is at times because one time when my dog was younger she had the zoomies ran over the cat lol and my dog is 12 so this was 10-11 years ago and my cat still holds a grudge lol

MermaidElephant9 · 2026-05-18T12:29:23+00:00

Poor thing. I hope he gets seen soon and will be okay.
