Failure to Communicate

 

Haha, we are missing the phone there let's try that again:

Much better, it's hard to read a mistyped text if you don't have a phone. 

This did not actually happen but I could totally see it happening because our children often need baths and also often need their nails trimmed (or rather filed because I don't like sharp little nails cutting me or them).

M: He needs a bath in manure?!?
L: That was supposed to be "bath and manicure."
O: *vibing in my arms*

Bath Salts

This is referencing that event back in 2012 when a Florida man was attacking people and somehow he was affected by bath salts to do so. I never looked too much into it because it sounded gross and for the same reason, I'm not linking any articles on that event. You can look it up if you so choose. Well actually I just looked it up a little more and Today I Learned 'bath salts' is a term for a street drug which resembles Epsom salts. The bath salts we got are the top ones from this list - they aim to recreate a visit to the hot springs and they do make a relaxing experience. We have been to hot springs once (in Canada) and it was a nice time. We bought water shoes for the adventure but haven't used them since.

M: I bought some fancy bath salts but the packaging is all in Japanese - do I put in a whole packet?
L: We don't live in Florida so it should be fine?
