Yesterday I had a meltdown. I'm not 100% sure why. I was telling my mom a story and I started to cry...and cry...and cry. It was aweful. I don't know if it was because it was almost Monday and I hate Mondays. Or maybe I was just due a really good emotional fallout. Martha brought me cotton candy from the fair and I recovered. All I want to do today is curl up on the couch and watch my favorite Christmas movie.

I've had a hankerin' for a Christmas movie too...come watch one with me!
Well Rachael,
I hate to make you feel worse...but I actually had a pretty good Monday! Went to court today for a speeding ticket I had gotten over a month ago. I talked to the DA and she reduced my ticket from a 58 in a 45 to a 54 in a 45.
Originally, I was planning on using a Prayer for Judgment, but the judge asked me if "there was any reason I needed to use the Prayer for Judgment"? For a split second, I felt like a complete idiot because I didn't know how to answer that question. I had prepared for all of them except that one....
Well, believe it or not, a lawyer in the court room came to my rescue. He explained to me that since I was less then 10 over the speed limit, I did not need to use a Prayer for Judgment...so I paid 10 bucks for my speeding ticket plus the court fine...and I got legal advice for free....Imagine that!!!!
My Monday was kind of stinky, too, Rach. I had the morning off to do administrative stuff for work, which was fine.
It took me 10 extra minutes to get to work because of the torrential downpour of rain (I guess I shouldn't complain too much about the rain). Then, when I got to school, I learned that the cat had attacked one of our kids. Then, a little boy decided he would pee in his pants every 15 minutes or so, and when he ran out of pee, he took cups of water and dumped them on the floor.
Yes, he really did.
I'm going to go home and curl up with my cats at home, who don't attack when it's raining or if I left them alone all weekend. They also don't pee on the floor.
Maybe this will make you feel better...I spent 7 hours driving back from Georgia yesterday and then got up at 4:30 this morning to drive down to Wilmington to work. There are permanent hand prints in the steering wheel of my car.
I had a terrible day today - I think something was going around because the guy at the ice cream place where I went to find comfort said that he had a bad day, too. I even got hives (which I know you don't think of as a big event) but it was rather upsetting.
All of this reminds me of a song....... Well I had a bad day la la la la ;)
So THIS is the place to come to when I need to complain...
Well, my toilet broke last week because Brandon flushed toy food and little people down it. I vacuumed three times in one day because the boys think goldfish and popcorn are something to hit with a hammer. They think brand new containers of skincare and makeup belong smeared on the mirrors and countertops. I had to throw everything out. Connor thinks groceries need to be covered in dish soap so the boxes can become fully saturated and the needy people we bought them for can then eat soapy tasting cereal and oatmeal. DO YOU KNOW how long it takes to get dish soap off the floor because you cannot put the floor in the sink to rinse it? Do you, huh? There is a water spot on my kitchen ceiling because the boys cannot keep water in the upstairs tub. There is not a wall in my house that has not been touched by magic marker or crayon thanks to the twins. I know I'll forget all this one day...AUGHHHH!
OK...that's it. I'm not having kids.
Lottie is a good little child...mainly because I can put her outside when she's bad. Kitties are the best!
I think a group of people need to come visit me to get away from all the terribleness up there!
I keep tellin' ya to put the boys on ebaY but nooooooooooooooooo. Keep listening to your heart instead of your head (women!).
I figure you got about 2 more years at this rate before you keel over and die. Of course when I find you keeled over I'll need to do that Romeo and Juliet thing 'cause there ain't no way I'm wrangling 4 kids and 2 cats on my own!
"THAT's your favorite Christmas movie?!" That was a quote from Patience, actually. We recommend: The Bishop's Wife, White Christmas, The Lemon Drop Kid, the Muppet's Christmas Carol, or (one of my personal favorites) The Homecoming (my favorite line, "I don't feel like a piss-ant").
Well, I think my Tuesday evening made up for your bad Sunday... is that okay? =D If we had only known, we would have brought you Taco Bell.
Awww.Taco bell! Yes, shamefully it's my favorite Christmas movie.
My favorite is Holiday Inn. Look it up it is wonderful.
