“Nobody objects to a woman being a good writer or sculptor or geneticist if at the same time she manages to be a good wife, good mother, good looking, good tempered, well groomed and unaggressive” -Leslie McIntyre

One of those days

Today is one of those days. You know the kind; when it’s dark and gloomy when your alarm clock goes off. You can hear the rain pelting the window in rhythmic sound making opening your eyes that much harder.

Today is one of those days. You know the kind where you don’t really want anything for breakfast, but know you have to eat something so you just mix your favorite three or four cereals into a bowl and call it a meal.

Today is one of those days. The kind where seeing these smiling faces makes everything else seem so trivial and insignificant. The kind where you feel better deep down inside because these smiles are all for you.

Today is one of those days. The kind where you are so busy that you feel like you can’t catch your breath. The kind where you are sweaty and it’s not even hot outside. The kind where you feel like there is no end insight even though you know it will come in a matter of hours. Today is one of those days that eating your lunch 30 minutes later than actually making it doesn’t bother you a bit because you’re just happy to be sitting down. ;)

Today is one of those days. The kind where you’ll be spending the evening doing load after load of laundry and watching movies with wild girls until they pass out from pure exhaustion.

Today is one of those days. The kind where you really want to eat just this for dinner…

But to be a good influence on said wild girls you decide to have this for dinner BEFORE eating the other.

Today is one of those days. You know the kind…you want to curl up in bed, watch movies and fall asleep all snuggly and warm with your girls on both sides of you, but since today IS one of those days you know you have to get the other stuff done and pray that Friday will be the other one of those days – the kind where the snuggling in bed takes place. :)

The bed is a bundle of paradoxes:  we go to it with reluctance, yet we quit it with regret; we make up our minds every night to leave it early, but we make up our bodies every morning to keep it late.  ~Charles Caleb Colton

    Strawberry Rhubarb pie is totally a legit dinner. Fruits, Veggies (rhubarb is a veggie!), carbs…er, um….yeah. Could be worse!
