Thumbs down Holy Burritos!!!

I knew it was going to be a rainy, dreary, dark, (did I mention dreary?) day.....

I decided to make bean burritos with bacon and broccolli with cheese dip as a heavy, coma inducing meal.... Well, it worked BUT...

Now the boys are wide awake.....see where I am going old timers....

My eyes wont stop tearing up, paint is peeling, my teens are fake gagging and dry heaving three rooms away (one is asking to go to a friends ).....

The humidity is just leaving it hanging in the air like a green/gray fog..... I can't open the 5 foot window because the rain is beating against it...

BAD, bad planning on my part..... Take my advice and save yourselves...there is no hope for me...

I am so sorry..... When has that ever been the deciding factor....

I will never understand how uprooting kids to save 20-50 bucks is worth it to some....

Maybe she meant "free"...

That is just it too..45 bucks. Well actually, this other daycare is clear across town..10 miles ONE way.. So she's going to be spending MUCH more in gas, then if she were to just pay the extra-she's county. Sheesh..some people and their logic! Or lack thereof!
Thanks for the support though! it's actually for the best. This moms been a real pain in my side since day one anyway. I'm sure I'll find other kids! (fingers crossed)

I have found that every negative thing in my life has usually lead way to something pretty wonderful in the end...

I bet the same will happen for you if you just let it....

Cat- how are you going to explain the lingering smell that you have adjusted to, and no longer smell, but others can! to your dcps??? hahahahahaha


Bizzy- so sorry to hear that, glad it was a mom you were ok with leaving.



Words of wisdom for today....

Negativity brings negativity. It's like a magnet. If you are negative, you will attract negative energies.


SMILE! it makes a difference. Even a fake smile on a rough morning, will brighten your day and others days.

I read this on Flylady but I loved it......If you continually give, you will continually have.
