I had a terrible rotten no good very bad day today. And that's all I'm going to say because I tend to waller in myself and bitch to whoever will listen. And quite honestly, I'm too exhausted to type the whole ordeal out. So instead, I thought I'd just list 10 things that failed to piss me off today. Or rather, my "Small Favors" list from God.
1. Hula Hoops. Cameron is in a "Hula Hoop Class" this week and she is loving it. No matter how grouchy you are, you can't watch a group of little girls getting some hip action on with thier hoops. Especially when the teacher plays Beach Boys for them to hoop to.
2. Cheap rubber flip flops. I love when you walk into Old Navy and they have all the colors of the rainbow displayed together. It just makes me smile.
3. Hugs from Tucker. It's like he just knows, and he decides to just stop his busy active life and come give Mommy a hug and a snuggle. No matter how brief, it just makes it all better.
4. Late hot summer nights. It was 10 pm and the kids were still out riding bikes. I remember it from when I was little and there's just something magical about getting to be out that late with your friends.
5. Diet Pepsi. I have given up a lot of things while preggo, but one thing I will not give up is my daily indulgence. A icy cold Diet Pepsi. Today's was especially refreshing.
6. Target Sales. Here's my best one yet. A pack of underwear for Cameron (9 pairs), a pair of shoes for Tucker, and a baby blanket for new kid in town. Grand total out of pocket? $1.20. Dang I'm good.
7. Rum Tum Diddy. It's an old Girl Scout recipe. It seriously consists of ground beef, diced tomatoes, corn, and a little cheese. Try it. In this case, if it's too good to be true, it definately is true! It's delicious. And we had it for dinner tonight. And Cameron ate four bowls. And Tucker poured his milk in his and ruined it, but that's another post.
And I can't even make it to ten. That's how bad this day was. But there's seven things that I can honestly say went right today and/or didn't piss me off.
Hope your day went better than mine.
how did you score that sale at Target/???
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of you the other day. We were in Albertsons and walked pass the beer and wine section. Cailey noticed the little wine bottles and said, "Look mom, little kids wine bottles!" hahahahaha. First of all, not to sure on how she knew it was wine and second of all why would she think it was for little kids???Still it was funny and thought of you ;)
ReplyDeleteYou are a great mother,wife, and sister. You do so much and do a great job at everything you do. Keep up the good work! We are all blessed to have you in our lives. Brodie is a lucky little boy to be coming into such a loving family. Everyone deserves some time to them selves, and you have especially earned it. Bring the kids by anytime so you can relax. I insist. Thank you for being such a great person. Love you
