I am sad today...

I sneaked into Boo Boo La La' room this morning to wake her up and ask her what the Tooth Fairy brought her.

She pulled out the bag from under her pillow and said,

"I saw someone BIG come into my room and then go back to bed. I am going to tell all my friends that the Tooth Fairy is MOM."

"Honey, I don't know what you are talking about.  I was sleeping.  The Tooth Fairy came."

"Then it was DADDY."

"No, you must be mistaken."

Stomps up out of bed and throws the ziplock at me..."YOU ARE A LIAR! I don't want your money. You keep it - YOU pulled out the tooth anyway."

The morning was shot.

I tried to redirect, but I kept getting "The Glare".

I like it better when I get The Smile.

Maybe she will have a better day at school.

It is "CHEESEY Macaroni & Cheese" day.

Best Intentions Monday

Today I am setting my intentions for the week!  Enjoy and feel free to tell me how idiotic I sound!  ;P

When I get home if Boo Boo La La asks me to watch cartoons with her - I will not make any excuses, but sit down with her - I have not seen her since Friday morning as I am in San Diego. 

I will not complain about other people - I am GRATEFUL to have such wonderful friends, family and co-workers around me. 

I will go work out Thursday morning - I have had such good workouts here in San Diego!  ;)

I will be up for saying YES to more things.  Only NO to that wish is truly foolish.

I will not say - "Unless I win the Powerball!"

Have a great week Peeps!

I try and try and try and try some more to be positive,(you saw the pictures from the walk - I took my baby to a nice concert at Orchestra Hall - I tell people nice things!) but I just keep having the negative creep up on me. Anything can trigger me feeling bad and wanting to cry - something someone says on the phone(even if they don't mean anything by what they said), the awful "Buy This Big Giant Christmas Gift" commercials, the news, an email...

I want to go back to bed and stay there for about a week. I do not want to drive anywhere, talk to anyone on the phone, argue with my friends, spouse, child or others, watch news, read bad things on the internet, or work out.

What I want is some rest, some cuddles, a back rub or two and some nice glasses of wine. Maybe an omlette with tomatoes, cheese and turkey.
