Yes, this is my mood at the current moment.  I woke up today with plans to upload a recipe and pics for a fantastic homemade pizza dough however like usual, my day decided to go in a completely different direction.  So here I am, behind a closed door, shaking my head, muttering "fuck this".  I can tell you that like most days, despite my intention to have a positive attitude and shiny smile, within minutes of my eyes opening, I can feel the sarcasm stirring and the snarkiness begging to be unleashed. And this is before I've even stepped into the shower and shortly after I began gently and then loudly rousing my kids to get breakfast.  Coffee? Ha! That shit doesn't happen until I sit down at my desk 2 hours later.  Get up earlier you suggest? Are you freaking nuts is my response.

The children finally finish half their breakfasts of pop-tarts and donuts (don't judge, you know how mornings can be and just how important it is to have them eat SOMETHING before school), I wipe the crumbs onto the floor for the cat and dog to fight over, and then taking a queue from the animals, my son and daughter go at it.  Like full on screaming, nose-to-nose war.  Take a peek at the participants..cute, aren't they..don't let their looks fool you, they both have some REALLY good tricks up their sleeves.  And most surprisingly, my money is on her.  She's no joke.

Hunter, age 6






Hunter v. Grayson
battle number ????
I've lost count.
                                                                 
                             

So this fight was because...drum roll please...."GRAYSON THOUGHT ABOUT LOOKING AT ME". No joke. Then Grayson accused Hunter of hiding his Valentine's Day cards for his class party. It was all I could do to get out the door.

For reasons I can't go into now but hopefully will be able to at a later date, all I can say about my job is that most days are horrendous and there are a plethora of things that need to be fixed. Am I thankful to have a job? Yes.  A job that requires daily medications to include antacids and beta blockers? Well....So when a coworker informed me that she would be taking off and leaving me to fill in for her on top of the two full times jobs I do here as well, I may have given her the short answer, but most definately, the little voice in my head was repeating the long answer. Like a mantra.

Count your blessings folks!
