A year ago…

Remember last year’s WORST APRIL FOOL’S JOKE ever…..  I so wish it had been an April Fool’s Joke!

I woke up so crabby today.  I wonder  if subconsciously this had something to do with it… or the fact of dreading to go to school and teach middle schoolers on April Fool’s Day!  😉  Either way, I need some “uncrabby” potion.

News on our homefront.  Punky has been wearing underwear!   🙂   He’s such a proud “big boy!”  He asked to go potty standing up the other night.  I said, “Sure, let me show you how….”  Hubby called out from the living room, “Oh, this ought to be interesting!”   🙂  I didn’t even think of the irony!   😉  But, Punky did it….. and was on cloud nine!

We’re heading home to IL at the end of the month for my nephew’s 3rd birthday.  🙂  I can’t wait!

It’s state testing time again at school.   Ugh.   Remember my feelings on that?

Man, I am crabby today!  See?!?!?

Punky painted my nails last night (using his orange bath tub crayon).  He told me “they the color of Cheez-Its, Mama!”  Made me laugh!   He helped me scrub that off before we drained the bath tub!  My fingers looked like they had been in a bag of Cheetos for 2 hours!

In an effort to bring a smile to this crabby face….I’ll leave you with some of my recent  favorite photos from my 365 Blog...  (If you haven’t been over there…..go take a look)

232323232fp53659nu3269-9258wsnrcg323-75547886While in Chicago, Punky, like his mommy did in her younger years, likes to wait for Grandpa Ed to come home from work.  So he waits near the corner of the cul-de-sac and waits for Grandpa’s car to come home.  Then Grandpa lets him “drive” to the house.

Have a great day…..I feel better already!  🙂

    I hope your crabbies have subsidded a bit and if not that is ok too..sometimes we owe it to ourselves to feel what we need to feel so that we can heal…if that makes any sense. I know I have definitely had my share of sad days and tears and always felt better if I allowed myself to feel sad and mournful in the moment …you know..actually feel it…then I got to actually feel happy when the moment passed too…

    OK I’m playing catch-up as ever. I saw that you were “Crabby as hell today” on twitter and assumed it was caused by the Clomid and decided that it was best left alone, I am so sorry to hear that it was a year since that awful news.

    Your pictures are wonderful hopefully they helped make you smile … they certainly made me smile.

    So I am sending lots of love over the ocean and sincere apologies for being a bad blog buddie and I hope we get some news to make you smile soon.

Let me know what you’re thinkin’!
