Manic Monday



It's just another manic Monday oh oh, wish it were Sunday, yeah yeah, cause that's my fun day.......Now that the lyrics of my favorite Bangles tune is in your head, this is what's going on around here.

It is actually not a manic Monday. I have the day off of work for Martin Luther King Jr.'s Birthday and my children do not! I am missing them though or at least I will after a while...lol

I think Katherine the Great has quit as my tech support.  I say “I need help with my blog”, she rolls her eyes and then magically disappears.  I had to fill her car up with gas last time to bribe her.  So I guess I’m on my own…..sniff sniff

 A few posts back, I did a Currently post that I saw on another blog.  Since I cannot figure it out on my own (cutting, pasting, saving, text boxes, etc.)  I am making up my own.  So here goes….

 Listening to:  Nothing!!! I am the only one home!!

 Loving:  That I have the day off and may get something accomplished…may being the significant word in this sentence.

 Thinking:  It might be time to take the Christmas tree down. However, it has been up longer than this a few times.

Wanting:  To take a nap this afternoon.  I love naps!! My Dad was a napper and I think it is genetic, smile.

Needing:   To be better at making my kids do chores.  Truly, I understand Cinderella’s stepmother at this point.  Maybe she wasn’t mean; maybe she was just in her 40s and tired.  However she would have gotten way more accomplished if she hadn’t played favorites.  Three girls doing the chores would have accomplished more than one, and those girls needed something better to do.

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

It's OK

Time for some grumbling, snarkiness, and maybe a little bad attitude... So who came up with flowered scented dish soap?  Someone who drinks perfume?  This is just so gross. Really. Why must the good foods be fattening?  Why is Coca Cola bad for your weight, health, teeth,etc. but so good for your mood?  I would say that it is just me but the fact it is a billion dollar industry would contradict that, just sayin. Why did God not give me the love of cooking to match my love of eating home cooked foods?   Where do all my socks go? Really, my house is not that big. Is it really necessary to get hot sweats at night?  Wouldn't society be better if the menopausal women at least were well rested?  I think I need a snickers, I am definitely in Diva mode today!!

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...
