Bought birthday gift for the party tomorrow and some more pin backs for Girl Scouts. Noah managed to get in trouble at school for talking when he shouldn’t every day this week. Sarah has a mope on because she can’t find someone to sleep over tonight. Amy is jolly.

Doug has gone back to bed. He must be having trouble with his project. The one he’s been working on for 3 weeks for $200. I’m off to find a birthday gift for an 8-y-o boy. If it’s going to be cold here anyway, why can’t we have some of the snow everyone else is […]

Actually got to take a bath and wash my hair today. There is a definite corrolation between bathing and my moods. I would like to say that the dead skin cells cause me some sort of chemical imbalance that makes me depressed or cranky but the truth is that I just feel better emotionally after […]

Lit my candle last night anyway. The bed was warm and my dreams were vivid, so I didn’t want to get up this morning. Really wanted a hot chocolate from the coffee shop this morning (made with real milk, yum) but Doug FORGOT to take his cell phone with him. I haven’t had one in […]

Kids’ clothes and bags ready for the morning. Dishes aren’t done because I need to do this stupid excel sheet and finish gluing Sarah’s display first. It would take Doug 15 minutes to do this because he’s an expert at excel but I first tried saying out loud all the things I need to do […]

Home and much happier with some new paper for my planner. I had run out and it was filling with scraps of paper that I scribbled different lists. Sarah’s project is nearly done. I told her I’d type her chart but I stink at excel so it should take me forever. Noah got in trouble […]

Had a scout drop by to get her cookie paperwork. All 6 girls should be selling now, but we’ll see. I expect 2 of them to decide it’s too hard. Doug stopped for groceries on his way home then went to his computer when he walked in the door. When he walked in I was […]

Just Amy and I home today and all is peaceful. A bit too calm though because it’s really tempting to just go back to when she goes down for her nap. Couldn’t find a snack so I raided the chocolate chips. Sorry, we can’t have cookies because mom ate the ingredients. E-mail seems to be […]
