Andy is watching football which means I cannot perform my recent nightly ritual of watching "Murder She Wrote" on the Hallmark channel. I don't care what he says, I LOVE that show. It is a very peaceful, nonviolent way to enjoy murder :)
Today I drank soda. Then, I finished Gabe's bowl of mac n' cheese and had peanut butter M&M's. I refuse to turn on the light, so that first & sign took me 8 tries to find. The second one only took 4.
Claire made me laugh and broke my heart at the same time today. She said, "Mom, when you yelled at us in the car, some of the love for you inside me went away." Yeah. I apologized. To be fair to myself, I was yelling over them to stop yelling at each other (which obviously makes TONS of sense), but it clearly hurt my baby. So after I said I'm sorry, I told her that when she yells at me, none of my love for her goes away. She said, "Mine just came back!" How easily she forgives. No more yelling, Mom.
I managed a partial shopping trip to WalMart. We didn't even have cereal in the house. I have yet to get the big food items at Randalls, so we don't have milk, meat, bread, or produce. I don't eat much (see above), and neither does Andy, so I've gone a WHILE since shopping for food. I could probably go a little longer if I didn't have to pack a lunch for Char.
Well, my show is on tomorrow, so I have something to look forward to. It's like having friends over w/o it feeling like the dreaded "social event." Yeah, I'm weird about that right now. I mean weirder than normal. All the other moms at Claire's dance class visit with each other. I spend my time tailing around after Charlotte and Gabe so I don't have to say anything more than the bare minimum. Charlotte is a social butterfly, though, so she keeps making friends with kids and then I have to make friends with the moms. I don't want to cramp her style, but she sure is cramping mine!
Oh, I'm filthy and dirty, but I DID dye my hair and take a shower - I can't remember when. It sucks that a shower only lasts a day or two.

I bet your hair looks great. Did you stick with red again? I am gross too. Claire is such a smartie. I love it when our kids drop pearls of wisdom on us like that.
I think showers should just happen as you sleep so that when you wake up you are cleaned, hair done, makeup on and all you have to do is get out of bed and get dressed. Of course, if all of the other stuff can happen while in bed then something oughta be able to dress you! I also never shop. I have actually looked into those delivery services but got too scared about how much I might wind up paying for food or that what they delivered wouldn't be what I would pick out myself quality wise. Today i am debating about skipping out on a preschool field trip just because I don't feel like getting the girls ready to go outside. Its awful! It'd be so fun for Naomi, but I don't know that I'm up to the effort. Yesterday I could have done it, but today seems to be more of an avoid day.
Nat - the hair is still red!
Care - We used to order our groceries online before we had kids. It was GREAT! They picked the best produce, it was already bagged up, and they delivered or Andy picked up on the way home from work. LOVED IT!
Wasn't NCIS flippin' awesome last week? I don't have TV, so I have to watch it on the internet a day late, so don't tell me what happens!
I'm relived to find I'm not the only one who doesn't want to chat with the other moms. Seriously! Remember that wonderful group of friends I had? Oh yea, they all turned out to be so freaking fake that I can't deal with them.
How cute is Claire?? Seirously. She's smart as a whip.
Also, while I don't do "Murder She Wrote' I used to do Matlock and I still watch "The Golden Girls" every chance I get. LOVE LOVE LOVEs me some senior TV!
Holy freaking breaking news

Am I the last to know this?!?!
You know, I'm still waiting for the technology from the Jetsons cartoon to be developed - you know, where you slip out of bed and immediately step on to a moving walkway that puts you through the shower and closet? The other one I like is the phone mask...
The love in my heart for you just gets bigger!!!
Miss you!!!
Love,
Myrtle Pancake
