Fa la la la la la la la...
In a better mood now, thanks!
I stepped away from the sewing machine last night and took a long bath (although I didn't have any bubbles) and read a book.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

Ahem...
Today went pretty well, the kids picked Waffle House for lunch (please tell me I'm not the only person who doesn't like the House of Waffles, blech). I did finish my list of errands and I think that contributes to about 75% of my good mood now.* Not that the errand running went as smoothly as I would have wished. I'd like to apologize to the nice cashier at Staples who cheerfully greeted us and then was probably a bit shocked when I turned around and walked back out after Zach and Kyle got into a kicking and fist fight ten feet into the store.** I then later made the mistake of letting Kyle pick out a dye/chemical filled candy*** at Target and he was a bit off the wall at the fabric store.
But we have school supplies and toilet paper and thread so life is all good.
* The other 25%? I may be a tad bi-polar.
** We didn't go back into Staples, instead we went home and the boys got a nice long hour time out in their room.
*** I've never had him tested and I'm just going on my personal observations but Kyle "acts up" more after eating anything high in food dyes and artificial flavors. Sometimes I forget this and then we all kinda pay for it.
Natural and low processed foods are our friends.
(So are baths and fluff novels that can be read in one setting.)
