It has been one of those days already, you know those days.
Mama was out late last night and wakes up to...no coffee.
Text my brother and tell him if he wants me to take his child to school he must have
a couple of scoops of coffee for me when I get there.
On the way to the car Wyatt steps in dog poop.
We get to my brother's to pick up my niece for school and...she steps in cat poop.
Seriously?
Get back in Jeep to take kids to school and....Jeep won't start.
Lord have mercy.
At this point all I can do is laugh.
The Jeep is from 1987, this is what I deal with sometimes.
Things can only look UP from here, right?




A few other things of note this week:

Spent two hours at the library with Charlotte; playing and picking out books
Had several rainy, cloudy, foggy days
Hung big paper snowflakes in the living room
Found an awesome Little Golden Book
Decided it's not too early to bust out the Valentine decorations
Had coffee by myself at the coffee shop, pure bliss
Took pictures in my favorite cemetery
Had a super-fun, much-needed, girl's night out






So that's a little bit of my week.
My house needs a good cleaning and laundry needs done and we have a craft
planned that Char has been wanting to do, so today is actually a pretty good day to
be stuck at home after all.
Gotta look at the bright side, right?

Any of you Boy Scout moms?
Tomorrow is the Pinewood Derby (our first) and Wyatt is so excited, not quite sure
what to expect but we are looking forward to it.
hApPy friDaY, y'all!
Hope it's a good one.

  6. What a tough morning! I want to know where that yellow "Have a Happy Day!" cup came from? We had that exact cup at our house when I was a kid! In recent months as we've gone through and sold many of my folks things (my dad has Alzheimer's and my mom has parkinson's - they had to move from their home) I have come across many a gem from my childhood. Didn't see this cup though!
