just a day.

it's snowed.
again.
so I shoveled.
again.
but this time, I'm just MAD. Mad mad mad.
I fell.
twice.

AND I was already grumpy because I gave up 'sweet' for Lent.
not sugar, 'sweet' (which includes sugar, but is just not limited to that)
grumpy and MAD.

AND Sophie is sick.
that horrible, wheezy, dry, hard to breath type of sick.
so I didn't sleep last night...well, unless you count sleeping on the floor by a coughing 3 yr old, sleeping.
and I can point to the little girl in the nursery last Wed. night who sounded exactly like that....I remember cringing and thinking to myself..."well, here it comes!"....
gggrrr....nothing sets me off more than that.

except falling on ice, twice, within 1 min.
or except going without sweets.

My head is pounding, my body aches, it's bad....

(the last time I went off sugar it was for just sugar and it did not include sugar in my coffee......so this time is just very different. which is good, because it's for a much bigger reason)

so...wanna come over and hang out!? I'm a barrel of laughs right now.

So...grumpy, lumpy, dumpy, frumpy, pumpy, bumpy, chicken mumpy (rhyming always makes me smile :)

And - right there with you on the 'sweet.' Although, I am off all things sweet for gestational diabetes - so past the Lent window (gave up some internet time wasters for Lent)

It's the weekend - doesn't that always make things better? And you will start to feel awesome in a few days with all of that sugar sweet yuckiness out of your system.

Plus, I think you're awesome anyway (even if you're a little grumpy :)

--Tina (Hope Sophie is better quickly and it doesn't get passed on to anyone else)

Ya know I'd still hang with you even when you're grumpy and mad. Besides, if I had been there you would have had someone to laugh at you as you were falling. Friends don't let friends fall without laughing at them. :)
