Wednesday is my busiest day of the week. Today was even busier as I had a 9:30am PTA meeting (with end-of-the-school-year elections for next school year) and added in the fun of my having to remember to not park in our garage as we were having our driveway resealed. Don’t laugh, it’s hard to remember my name on Wednesdays!
DH is out of town… so it was all up to me to wake up, sneeze a few squillion times (a very appropriate Vicky-ism) thanks to the outrageous grass pollen counts around here, get the girls off to school, make Mike and Kathie’s dogs go bonkers because I rang their doorbell (oops!), head to the PTA meeting at school which lasted forever, do a boatload of “paperwork” (it was all electronic, but still just as tedious), head back to school to do my weekly stint in Maggie’s computer lab, do that kiss and ride pick up thing with the girls in order to get to Lindsey’s ballet class in time (the bus is too late to make it), stop at the grocery store because the aforementioned paperwork took too long… fix dinner, and then help with homework, spelling and reading.
Through the whole day, I have had this blistering headache at my temples. I took ibuprofen for it twice today and it refused to go away. About half an hour ago, I took the headband I was wearing out of my hair and whaddya know, the headache is all gone. *rolls her eyes* Can you say dingbat? I KNEW you could!
On a different note, I was enabled last week. Could it have been something small? Heck no! I don’t ever get enabled with something small… it’s 429 x 429!
It’s from Nouveau Encore and called “Tribute to the Old Masters.” I will be stitching it on 36 count “Misty Rain” Vintage linen from Lakeside Linens (wohoo, I remembered the word, Kathie! *bounces*) with Belle Soie “Elegant Eggplant” silk which is a gorgeous purply-blue sent to me by the same adorable imp who enabled this whole chart purchase in the first place. {{{Fudgey}}}
I have now tucked my little darlings in for the night and am off to go take a looooong bubble bath. And no, I’m not putting my hair up with one of those blasted hair bands! *giggles*
