Sort of. I'm feeling very overwhelmed by the whole daily blogging of the daily picture thing. I'm still going to take the pictures, but I think I'll only blog once or twice a week.  I don't know. Maybe that'll change after I take a couple days off from this. I just know I need to change something so that I don't burn out like I did last year. 

I don't wanna blog today. You can't make me.

Come back tomorrow.

Please.

On occasion, Plan B turns out to be better than Plan A. Today, we'd planned to drive out to a mall in Milwaukee in order to shop at some stores that aren't in our town. In the end though, I decided that it'd be less expensive to order online and avoid spending money on gas and eating out. The boys were a little disappointed, but handled it pretty well. We did go out to the grocery store this afternoon, and I let the boys do one of their favorite things; pick something from the bakery case at Sentry. I wish I'd been able to photograph that! Sentry's bakery case is filled with the most amazing, most colorful, most fantastical confections. It's as much eye candy as it is belly candy.

I would carry around little placards with messages like the one above. How great would it be to just put up a sign that said "BUSY" with a nice little hour glass on it, or one that said, "Not Responding" when we can't or won't answer a question. What if we all had our own personal error messages like the dreaded 404 or when we're about to flip our lid, we could throw up a blue screen of death. I know we don't want the world to be taken over by computers and robots, but in this instance, I think we should take our cue from them.

Sometimes, I'm an idiot. Last night I was an idiot. I finally released some of the pent up anger and frustration I've been holding back regarding our current employment situation. Unfortunately, I released it onto the arm of our couch. And I missed the soft cushioned part of the arm. But I made a direct hit on the wooden framing with the side of my hand. Right against the bone. And it hurts. A lot. It's feeling a little better today, but it's still achy. I suspect that I may have broken a bone in there, but I'm going to suck it up and work through the pain until I know our COBRA insurance is in place.
