Golly gee, I’m tired.
I shoveled snow today for the first time in, oh I don’t know, my LIFE.
Kidding, kidding. It’s just been quite awhile. See, I have a hubby who usually does all that kind of stuff…and there w as
no way I was allowing him to attempt shoveling, though I’m sure if I hadn’t done it, he would have eventually. But he really needs to rest his arm, and we both know it.
So, enter Meanie Mel, who will be enforcing doctor’s orders for the next week. Trust me, I can be one stubborn, hotheaded woman if I have to be. (Ask Tobin next Friday if he’s sick of me yet.
Better yet, ask him tomorrow.
;))
So I decided that tonight I’ll have a step closer to a coffee date with you all and drink Diet Coke while I chat. If we’re being honest, there’s been far too much of it flowing through my veins lately, and I know a certain reader of my blog who has given up pop for the year.
So I won’t rub it in too much that I’m drinking SODA. Mmmmm….
Ok, enough. Really. 
It was a really good day. I love Thursdays. Wonderful Bible study. Good chat with friends.
Lunch out and time at the mall play place…and for once it wasn’ t overcrowded wi
th kids. Home for Mae’s nap and time to get a few things done.
And you may have heard that we are finally getting some snow in this part of the country. Thankfully God decided to send us a real snowstorm…because I find 1-2 inches just. plain. annoying. Enough to slick up the roads and bring out the less-than-bright in so many drivers, but not enough to actually play in or build a snow sculpture of the Eiffel Tower or whatever.
Yeah, can you tell what’s on my mind?
I spent a fair amount of time tonight attempting to find hotels for our trip. I am thoroughly annoyed with the fact that our excursion to one of my top three dream locations EVER is complicating plans. Let’s just say it’s hard to book a hotel in Tangiers when we’re not exactly sure we’ll be able to go on the days we want. So I’m debating whether to book…and trust that it’ll work out. Or to book just our first night somewhere and hope that there will be open rooms for the rest of the nights.
This is the part of trip planning that I don’t enjoy. And yet, I’m really trying to focus on the fun.
We get to take a pretty cool trip for our 10th! And, it’s alone time for us…which we really need. It’ll all work out, even if we have no hotel room and
have to sleep on the beach. 😉 More money to spend on purses in Morocco that way.
I read a fabulous blog post here that just made me smile. I love her writing style…and this particular topic hit close to home. Please click over and read…I promise you it’s worth your time.
And I love that she wrote about laundry because, well, I can relate.
Says Mel, 20 minutes after starting the first of four loads for the night.
So I had kind of an aha!
moment in the waiting room yesterday.
At the time it seemed so pressing to share it with you all, but today, I actually feel the need to process a little more. So you’ll have to wait another day or two.
Hope your Thursday was wonderful…mine was. Completely.
G’nite!
