If you prefer running socks on the thinner side, you may want to consider these from Bombas.
These lightweight socks are meant for running or any other workout. They’re made from a moisture-wicking, cotton-poly blend with just enough cushioning for comfort. They also come in a range of sizes (which for my small feet means no more slippage) and colors. Also, for each sock purchased, Bombas will donate one to someone experiencing homelessness.
These socks are $49.50 for three pairs. They come in sizes S to L, and seven different packs ranging from colorful to plain white.
Psst: Note that if you can hold out for a few days, there are a lot of good deals on Bombas in the 2022 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!

Old Mom question.
My 8 year old wants “Roblox.” I’m not sure what this is. A game for the Nintendo Switch? An app for his Fire? Amazon had a bunch of digital gift cards with “Roblux” on them – is that what he means? Help this luddite out. Thanks.
For those of you with no local family to help out or who could travel to help out – who watched your younger child/children when you were in the hospital birthing subsequent kids?
Complaint into the void. My parents have been talking about how excited they are to have the kids to themselves since they were born. This summer, first year on a school year calendar, they agreed to watch them two separate weeks. Well, just had the first week and they said it went great except actually they’ll do only three days for the week in august. All camps are filled. I’m scrambling to figure out how to cover it and annoyed they committed and are backing out, even though I know it’s not fair to be upset at them.
