Allison’s class just finished reading The Spider Chronicles with their teacher and this evening they all made plans to meet at the dollar show to see it on the big screen. Allison was so worried she wouldn’t be able to make it because it started at 5:15 and most days I am home from work just about that time but lucky for her her dad was home in time to take her. I hope they are having a good time. It’s been a while since she has been out some where with just her dad. It makes me smile at the thought of them standing in line for popcorn and Allison introducing him to all of her little girl friends.

My beautiful daughter Allison, she’s growing up so fast.

I woke and decided to try and shake off the bad day I had yesterday. It’s a beautiful morning and a new day and I am determined to make it a good one.

This has been a real shit day ! It started with the alarm going off an hour late because we forgot to set it last night and it hasn’t gotten any better. To make this day last even longer I have to take Allison to a Brownie meeting this evening from 6:30 to 7:30 and I have no way of getting out of it. Not when my daughter is this weeks troop speaker and has plans to talk all about her trip to Europe. I guess it would make me a pretty bad mom if I made her miss that because I am having a bad day. How bad of a mom would I be if I showed up at Brownies smelling of booze? Would that be any better?
Nah, I guess I can suck it up and race home and get my self together, splash some water on my face and throw some jeans on before her meeting. She only has one more meeting after tonight and then the troop is done for the year.

What is wrong with people today? Has everyone loss their mind ?

Myself included.

I really want to get my daughter Bethany some thing special for her first Mother’s Day. She is also just about to move in to her first house so I have been trying to come up with something that will not only be a nice gift but maybe some thing she can use. Over the weekend she gave me her very long wish list of things she needs and wants for the house. On it is a throw or blanket for the back of their couch. So, I am thinking instead of just any plain blanket or throw I should order her one of those really cute photo throws for Mother’s Day. We all know I have enough beautiful photos of Rebecca to chose from. In fact I think buying personalized photo throws as a gift is such a great idea that I am thinking of buying my mother one as well. Since I have been giving my husband hints that I would love a photo throw featuring both of my girls for at least three years now, I just might go ahead and order one for myself while I am at it.
