Gerry and I both have been sick with colds the past few days. Yesterday I was so sick I was back home in bed by 11:00am and slept until almost 2:00pm. I got up and soaked in a hot bath for a while. That seemed to really do me some good. I think I am finally feeling better today. Of course I am higher than a kite on cold meds right now but I really think I am better. I guess we’ll see when I come back down.

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.

My daughter Bethany is really in to watching The Hills. After less then ten minutes of being in the room while she is watching it I have to say it has to be the most stupid show I have ever seen. 

I have been really cutting back on my food portions and trying to eat a lot healthier. I am also increasing my amount of exercise and I am already seeing results. I have been feeling pretty good about it. Until this afternoon. I feel like I am starving. To make it even worse my boss and a few of the guys are in the office right now eating McDonald’s. One even has a sundae. I am so jealous!

I was up way too late watching TV shows off of my DVR last night. I think I fell asleep some where around 2:00am. Then my sweet little granddaughter Rebecca woke me up at 6:00am ! It’s so not like her to wake up that early. She is a real sleeper and usually sleeps in at least till 8 or 9:00am. That is why SHE is back to sleep already and I am sitting here with Allison sipping my Diet Coke and pushing myself in to the shower. I have to drive Rebecca home by noon and then this afternoon Allison and I have plans with my sister and nephew to check out a Webkinz Extravaganza party at our local Hallmark shop. I swear these Webkinz are like crack! Allison is so excited she is beside her self with anticipation.
