We're Better Now

Thanks to all of you who chimed in to say you have had those kinds of days too. It is so frustrating to be in the midst of one and know that my own attitude is a big part of the problem, and still do nothing to change it.

Sunday was a much better day. I just decided to be a grownup. I wasn't going to let the little things bother me. I focused on what I needed to get done. I spoke calmly to my children, even when they were misbehaving. We listened to some good music while we all did our various things. I also cleaned my room, which made a huge difference. Getting rid of the clutter and coming in and seeing a peaceful, kid-free place was so nice. Life is good and I have no reason to act otherwise.

Today we went to Target, and there is little that can't be cured by that place. I bought Butterfly the cutest sleeper on the planet, and I will take a picture of it when I stop being lazy. This trip was extra great because I found a gift card in a bag from the hospital (see what I mean about clutter!) that we had not used. So it was free shopping at Target. Woohoo!
