Woot for Wednesday!
The weather here is supposed to be gorgeous, as opposed to yesterday which was freezing-- 45* I could really use a bright sunny and warm day to recharge.
You know how I have been feeling pretty down about myself and my life, but have trying really hard this week to work through it? Well, sometimes life kind of throws me loops. Two weeks ago it was the Babesia diagnosis, then it was a bunch of issues with my kids/hubby. Yesterday it was my idiot-ness and almost setting my MIL's kitchen on fire.
Short story of it is that I pushed a chair into the stove handle while I was mopping, turning the gas burner on. She has a wooden plank thing (cutting bd maybe?) that sits over the two burners so I didn't see the flame. I go upstairs to iron and then the smoke alarm goes off. I run downstairs and the kitchen is filled with smoke-- the plank was on fire. I put that all out, but the house smells like campfire (love that smell when I am camping but I don't think my IL's will appreciate it inside their home). And all of her fabric- all I can think of is that I have ruined all of her quilting fabric (she owns more than some small fabric stores-- no lie)
Anyway-- trying to make this short LOL-- I call Gary and then burst into tears. Never a good thing for me, I am so good at stuffing everything down that when a bit breaks loose and I start to cry, it really gets ugly- sooooooo much craps gets out. I am crying about what a loser I am, how I can't even mop the floor right, that his parents are going to hate me.
Stupid stuff. Sort of.
I get home and shower (OMG I smelled so bad driving home, I couldn't stand one more minute!) then email my MIL so when they get home and open the door they don't freak out that their house is on fire. She emails me back-- laughing that it is a Lucy Moment and not to worry she does stuff like that all of the time. And a thank you-- she had wanted to get rid of that plank and now she had a reason too. Whew!!! My MIL rocks, she really does.
So here is to a new day and better things happening all around *raises a glass*
Oh and yes- did my sit ups, and I know that its really just sit ups, but by the 4th set, I am breaking a sweat. That has to be a good sign?

I want the weather to be nice and to stay that way!!!!
I wish there was some magic wand that can erase all of the bad feeling that build up inside (wouldn't that be awesome???)
I want/need/wish I can find a new hair cut style and color so I am prepared when I go to my hair appt tomorrow!!!
