Ever Had One of Those Days???

Eeeesh! I think that if tomorrow is going to be like today was that I will just stay in bed! Now I know that today is Valentine's Day and we'll talk about that later. The day actually started last night with a very painful trip to Target. You see, today was picture day at Kayla's school and she needed a new outfit because obviously her every day clothes are not good enough for picture day! Well, I did a stupid thing and bought her a white sweater. Yep, I bought my 8 year old who has many "accidents" a white sweater to wear to school. Hello, do I need my head examined. Aside from the fact that I bought her a white sweater I also spent a small fortune on this outfit. Well, then I just went completely out of control. After I had consented to buying said outfit I then proceeded to lay down the law about what would happen if she carelessly spilled half of her lunch down the front of her - it has been known to happen. So, after she leaves for school today, I start feeling like pond scum. I mean, I am the parent, why didn't I insist on the much darker orange sweater? Sure enough she comes walking up the walk from school with her bottom lip dragging in the dust and I'm thinking, "uh-oh, here we go". Sure enough she comes in with brown and red PAINT from art class on her new white sweater and she is devastated. She wore a smock and still got paint on it. Well, I had to apologize for putting so much pressure on it. I mean, I am a grown adult and I couldn't paint without getting something on it! So, I solved that issue. Now onto the next -- Tyler had a horrible poopy day and lost all of his toys AGAIN! So, when he finally went, he got to choose one toy - guess what he picked? A fireman hat. Um, do you know how many things you can do with a fireman hat before you are bored stiff??? Not many. So about 30 seconds after he picked the hat, he is bored. So he has been in my armpit crack all day. For some reason he thinks that the louder he talks the more attention he will get. So today has been a very LOUD day!
Ahh, but in the midst of it, we have Valentine's Day! Craig never ceases to make it a special day and today was no exception. We actually celebrated with a date night this past Friday. Tonight I got the new Lori Wick book and we went to dinner with the kids. Okay, enough of my theatrics - I'm going to read my book. Hope everyone had a good day with their sweetie!
