Wishing for Spring!!

I am having a really tough time lately. I can't seem to get out of my own way. At first, I thought maybe a mini mid-life crisis. Now I am thinking, it is more the winter blues. I don't know, could it be any of these things, all of these things, or more stuff that I just haven't thought of. Sometimes I feel like I just want to jump out of my skin.

I haven't been able to workout lately. Well, I guess that is actually a lie. I worked out 3 times and then tried the next couple of days with too many interruptions from the kids. Then it got to let me eat something for lunch first, wow I ate too much, let me just sit in the recliner and watch something on TV and then aw, Timmy is going to be awake soon so I can start now. Yes, all excuses!!! Then I get mad at myself. Another wasted afternoon! This is also a part of my rough time. I am just not motivated to do anything, I mean ANYTHING!! Oh wait, I am motivated to sit in the recliner and eat cookies.

On another note, Jake is recooperating very well!! Actually, I am thinking he needs the lump put back in. He has been a royal PITA lately!! I mean really, does he need to lick his paw at 3 AM!! Or stand in front of me and bark as soon as I sit down. The dog has more energy lately. Was the lump weighing him down? Whatever it is I am so happy that he is ok!!

Oh, and for everyone laughing at the dog food incident, I laughed too!! Come on, it was hysterical. Timmy was just staring at me like, "You're on your own Momma!"

Speaking of Timmy, I put him to bed tonight and came down stairs (to my recliner) and then hear soemthing. What was it...oh and make sure you read it fast! "come momma, come momma, come momma, come momma, come momma, come momma, come momma, come momma, come momma, come momma, come momma, come momma" Timmy needed me. I laughed all the way up the stairs. It was like a chant. I had told him that if he needs me, not to cry, but to say come momma and I would hear him and come. Well it worked and boy did it bring a smile to my face.

It is official, Timmy will be receiving OT. Hopefully, it will start next week. I have mixed feelings about it, but if it will help even a little, it is worth it.

Emma is doing great!! She is very excited about school. They are having the Olympics next Monday. I will be sure to take pictures. I am keeping my fingers crossed that she participates. She is usually a shrinking flower in front of crowds, but so are her parents.

Well I need to end this. American Idol is on and I can't miss the boys. And yes, since I am older than all of them, they are boys!

Have a great night everyone. Wish for Spring and beautiful weather. The kids and I really need to get outside and have fun!
