Today is officially my grump day.
  1. I have a million things to do and not enough time to do them all! It's so close to Christmas and yet it doesn't 'feel' Christmasy enough. That frustrates me. I look forward to this all year 'round and this year just seems to be falling short of all the hype it usually brings.
  2. My pet peeve is dirty/sticky floors. I hate walking around barefoot and feeling crumbs crunch under my feet as I walk through the kitchen. It makes me feel sick. haha and angry. Ironically, I also hate to sweep. So what do you get when you have an entire home with no carpet and a mischievous 1 year old? crunchy sticky feet, that's what. This morning Noah threw his sippy cup FULL of juice off his highchair where it spilled everywhere. Twice. The second time it splashed all over the wall. I thought I was going to lose it. I calmly walked away from the screaming child and cried in my bedroom for a good 5 minutes. There's nothing better than a good cry
  3. I'm a fatty. No, seriously. I was looking through pictures of Noah's birthday. WHOA. If anyone has any idea's for photo shopping a whale out of a picture, I'm all ears.
  4. Laundry: the bane of my existence. 'Nuff said.
  5. I love snow and all, but what's with the minus retarded temperatures?? I feel like I'm stuck inside. It's starting to drive me crazy. We went grocery shopping on Saturday and I was just way too hard with Noah. I felt so bad for the little guy. I am seriously excited to move and I hope Ed gets accepted somewhere very, very warm.

Speaking of Noah, the poor little guy has such a hard time growing his pearly whites. He is in the middle of pushing out his two front ones. He's a crying, drooling, whining mess. But on the up side, he also cuddles. Which is something he STRONGLY protests on a regular day. Sometimes having a sick little babe is a good thing :) I think I have the perfect remedy for my grumpiness. A snowed in day snuggling with my little man!

Peace

sorry to hear you're having a bad day! We all definitely have those!

Oh, and I have the solution to your crummy floors. a dog. no seriously - you can even borrow ours :) But only if you take the incessantly obnoxious air toy. Sorry they come in a pair.

Here's to a better tomorrow, friend :)

I second the idea of a dog. We have a miniature schnauzer and eventhough she only weighs 13 pounds she's full grown! So it's perfect because she doesn't shed, and any crumbs/or anything that EVER fall on the floor she's got it cleaned in no time!
Hope you're doing better, and hope it gets a little warmer out...all that cold air is slowly coming down here...it's super cold out today!
-take care,
Claudia
