Let's whine.

1. We've moved on from a cold to an ear infection (thanks everyone for clarifying the differences between a cold and flu).

2. Two weeks ago I paid to have Julia go to school for an extra three days a week, which, at this point, means I've paid some crazy amount for the TWO extra days that she actually made it to school.

3. I have PMS, and I don't need to explain why that's a whine.

4. After yesterday's work meeting, I have A LOT of stuff to do. And this is a whine because of Number 1.

5. Grace's Kindergarten teacher sent a note home saying Grace needs to do a better job coloring in the lines. Is she serious? It took a lot of restraint to not write back, "this is effing riciculous". Yes, that's PMS talking. I wish I could show Mrs. S the hundreds of coloring pages we have laying around the house where the detail in Grace's coloring blows my mind. Grace doesn't color in the lines on her work sheets because it's boring. When she's bored she rushes through things. How do I know this? She's EXACTLY like her dad. He does the same thing.

Whine over. Drs. appointment next.

A note sent home about coloring? LOL! If it were me, I would probably get in trouble with the teacher by saying something snarky to her.

I hope your week gets better. Good luck at the doctor :).

Raging ear infection. Of course. Why this week!
