IT'S MY PARTY.....

I've had one of those days weeks. You know the kind. Nothing goes smoothly, or comes easily. First it started off with Outbacker camp being cancelled this week, which led to shuffling our schedules to accomodate that. Then, we were completely blown off by a babysitter (for today), so we had to scramble at 10pm last night to work something out. Thanks to my brother-in-law Ben for hanging with the kids today! I'm so tired of the stress of it all. Today has been a long day, dealing with pain-in-the-ass people all day long, who truly have nothing else to do than make a stink about stupid stuff. Mix in a whole bunch of other little stuff and I'm just ready to get away from everything and everyone. I have visions of a few days on a tropical beach somewhere by myself, margarita in hand, forgetting about the grown up world for just a short time. Yes, I've got alot to be thankful for, and I AM thankful, but, just once in awhile, Mom needs an escape. So, for tonight, I am having (what we like to call around here), a pity party for myself. Tomorrow will be a new day, with its own highs and lows, and I will embrace it, because I know this too is part of God's great plan for me. Tomorrow will be better, I'm sure.

Until then, its my party and I'll whine if I want to.
