I Got Nothin'

I don't have anything interesting to say today, I'm afraid.

I could tell you about how it was rainy this morning, so the girls and I spent most of the day at the mall with some friends and had a very nice time - but that is so boring. I tried to take some pictures with the camera phone while we were there because the girls were doing cute things in the play area, but the camera phone sucks. I can't wait to get my Canon back.

I could tell you about the chicken tikka masala that we had for dinner - super easy to make with this seasoning packet I found at the Wedge, and it tastes great too! But you don't really want to know what I had for dinner.

I could tell you about how Joe got his new i-pod today - an early birthday present. He's very happy about it, and that makes me happy.

I could talk about trying to decide what activities to sign Julie up for this fall - gymnastics? dance? swimming? This is on top of pre-school three days a week. There is only so much money for class fees, and only so many days in the week. I'm of several minds on this issue, but I'm sure you don't want to hear about that either.

I'm not going to talk about what's really on my mind - what's happening tomorrow. It's a good thing, but private and not the business of the whole wide world. Weird for me to say that since I am not all that private of a person, generally speaking. It would make a good story, but it's not really my story to tell.

I could whine a bit about how Sophie fussed and cried for a few hours this evening, totally out of character for her little self. I know it must be teeth, but even the Tylenol didn't seem to help. She finally wore herself out and I tucked her snugly in her crib, poor thing.

I still got a couple of squares knit on the blanket...but no yarn sorting done, and I feel badly that I'm not going to get the packages out this week after all. Sorry ladies! It is a top priority, I promise!

I'll try to come up with something better tomorrow. Now I have to go get some sleep before our appointment at the crack of dawn in the morning.

I'm like that...if there's something I want to talk about but can't, then I totally cannot think of anything else! Do you find it hard to come up with things to write about every day? I know I do...I can't imagine people are interested in my latest knitting crisis. On the other hand, I'm interested in theirs.

Anyway, that was a long-winded way to say that I'm interested in anything you write, and I just love to see pictures of the girls! Sorry to hear that Sophis is having a hard time with the teeth. It never stops being difficult to watch your children be in pain and not be able to make it stop.

Shelly, I found out a long time ago that life has a way of interfering with itself :) Don't worry about the packages. You'll get to them eventually. And I won't worry about my kitchen floor, cause I will get to it eventually, too.

Whatever it is, good thoughts are coming your way!

When you are interested in writing about it, I would like to hear about how you deal with scheduling Julie for the fall. There is a lot to consider, so many options, limited money and I would guess lots of pressure from somewhere to have an overscheduled child. I don't have kids, but for some reason find these sorts of things very interesting.
