One of "THOSE" days

Today was one of "THOSE" days.  You know, the kind of days were everything just kind of seems to...well, suck.  Nothing major happened, and it was a gorgeous day outside.  But something just never really clicked.  I started this morning off at Les Schwab getting some nail pulled out of my tire, that in and of itself isn't a big deal, but I didn't get to play with Madison for as long as I wanted to this morning.  Then there is this pesky thing called work.  PTHHH it is not my favorite place to be right now.  Oh sure, work is never really a fabulous place to be, but lately it feels like my work place is SUCKING THE LIFE OUT OF ME.  And I am blessed to have a job. I KNOW I KNOW, but that doesn't mean I have to LOVE it.  There is just a lot of negativity there right now, that is just pulling me down.  Then to top off the day, Tyler called me at work to inform me that the amazing crock-pot meal that I prepared this morning, didn't get cooked, because I DIDN'T TURN THE DANG THING ON.  I almost cried when he told me that, would it have been an over reaction....mmm probably, but it was just the cherry on top.

On my drive home I tried to shake off the negative vibes that had been following me around all day.  I was looking forward to a kiss from Tyler, and some play time with Madison.  My bad mood, was not going to ruin it.  By the time I walked in the door I was mostly ok, still a little grouchy, but oh man, as soon as I saw Madison, all the days worries were gone.  She looked at me and giggled and smiled and said "Ma Ma"  and I melted.  I got a kiss from Tyler and loves from Madison.

After we ate some pizza, the day was still warm enough to go play outside in the dirt with no jacket.  So by golly that's what we did.  Well, Madison played in the dirt, I watched.  Madison is growing up so fast.  I told Tyler, I miss having a snuggly baby around, but this age is pretty cool.  She is finally talking (a little bit) and exploring EVERYTHING!  And learning so much everyday.  After she got good and dirty we came inside, had a bath, a treat (a couple pieces of pineapple) read some books, sang some songs, and crashed.

And now that's what I'm going to do...crash.

Good Night!  Oh and I know this whole "write everyday" thing isn't going so well, but I'm trying...kinda.  ;)

Thoughts

OK, so this whole writing every day thing is a lot harder then I thought it would be.  I didn't post on Saturday, because it was such a full day I don't think I even got on the computer (except at work).  Sunday, was well Sunday and a girl has to have a day off right?  Monday I started to write something, but then Madison decided we needed to play, and what kind of mom would I be if I refused my ADORABLE little girl.  Yesterday was another busy day, I worked and then went to Young Women's, I was a half hour late, but still I went.  And that brings us to today.  Here I am playing catch up.

I need to think about what I want this blog to be.  Do I want to chronicle my every day life?  I think that might get kinda boring.  Or do I want to write more about my thoughts and feelings, with a little bit of goings on?  I think I will do more thoughts, feelings and milestones, as well as anything else that tickles my fancy.  I need to learn how to water mark my pictures so that I can post them without fear of someone stealing them.

Thought for today?  Not many.  I was off today and I try to have fun on my days off and not worry about work, or much else for that matter.  I did apply for some jobs in the Hearing Aid Dispensing field (which for those who are wondering, is what I want to be when I "grow up")  Madison was kinda grumpy today.  She loves to be outside, but dang it I don't like to be when it's snowing, which it was today.  She did have a chance later in the afternoon.  This morning she found a big ol' puddle to jump in and soak her shoes and socks.  But hey, you are only a kid once, so I let her jump and get wet...until it started to snow, then it was time to go find something warm to wear.

Feelings for today?  Mmmm, I am feeling loved by my husband and family.  I spent most of the day with my twinner, which is always awesome.  And went out to dinner with Tyler and the kiddo when my other plans fell through.  Madison did pretty well with both dinning out experiences. I used to get so anxious when we would go out.  She doesn't or rather didn't do well with public dinning.  It's one of those things that she just needed some practice.  Not that we eat out a lot, but as she is getting older she is starting to understand what to do and how to behave.  That makes eating out a better experience for EVERYONE involved.

I also need to work on length and how to end the blogs, but I suppose I can figure that out as I go along as well.  So for now, goodnight!
