Only Tuesday

I woke up this morning not knowing what day it was, but really hoping that it wasn't just Tuesday! Scott didn't have to get up early and go to work, so it would have been a great morning to sleep in. Not counting today, there are 3 school days until a 3 day weekend!!! Instead of going to the gym yesterday Mom and I took Louie on a 2 mile walk in my neighborhood last night. It is amazing how fast you can walk 2 miles when it is cold outside! Speaking of Louie, the school nurse is coming in and talking to my kids about the "Don't bug me" campaign. The green bug is called Louie Achooee. It makes me think of Louie. So, my kids are doing a poster contest for that so I have it a little easier for the beginning of the week. It's a busy week though. I have to drive to Darnaby after school tomorrow for our UCTA meeting and then right after that we have our first community group of the season. Then, on Thursday we have the barre society thing. The elliptical didn't come in yesterday but the guy said he would make sure he brought it today before Scott leaves to go to work. That way I can do it tonight while I'm bored at home. By the way, the mixer started working. It's a good thing because I had sent Kitchen aid a nasty e-mail, and was going to continue to do so until they did something about it. You shouldn't pay that much for something and it not even work 2 years.
I've been thinking about Uncle Bill a lot lately. I keep having dreams where he is in them. Last night I dreamed he was dying again and Donna was there and we were all getting into it. The other day I was thinking about him and I knocked a bunch of stuff off of my bookshelf. I picked it all up, but I guess more fell later. So the next day I look over and on the floor is a picture of my dead kitten Leo and the last card that Uncle Bill gave me. Pretty strange. I think it is because it was this time last year that he started getting really bad. Lifes' twists and turns can be rough, but I know it can always be much worse. To make Tuesday better I am wearing my new sequined head band I got at White House Black Market. It had been incredibly expensive for a head band ( guess because it has sequins), but it was on sale and then I got an additional 35% off of that. so, I paid all of $6 for my headband. Except, it squeezes my head so I will wait to put it on until I start seeing kids!!
