I'm thankful for hot tea.

I'm thankful for the digital frame on my desk at work flashing pictures of my sweet kiddos.

I'm thankful DS1's school had a 2 hour delay and he didn't actually miss the bus which would have caused me to have to drive him to school!

I'm thankful my DH is awesome at catching mice :puke:

I'm thankful for Sonya starting these daily threads.

I'm thankful for the occasional grown up lunch out with co-workers.

I hope Sara's dog didn't crap all over her house this morning!

I would not do well with that.  At all.

I'm thankful for my DVR. Seriously, 2 hours of Biggest Loser? There's only about 30 minutes worth watching.

that dog crap got me thinking.

nice, huh?

we have a doberman.  She stays in the garage.  We let her in once in awhile to hang out but not really that often - she's an outside dog.

Last week DS1 had a 2 hour delay.

When we all got home at the end of the day John took Kate back to the bathroom b/w her room and our room.  Put a bandaide on her or something.

20 minutes later I take the same route he took earlier to change her diaper.  I get down the hall, into her room, flip the light on, change her diaper, turn to leave.

In that hallway DH and Kate had walked 20 minutes earlier and the one I just walked seconds earlier are 3 HUGE dog turds.

First my thought is what the heck are those???

Second my thought is why did my husband not say anything about them 20 minutes earlier?  You could.not.miss.them.

Yet we both did.  We missed them figuratively and literally.  How did we not step in them???  It was a miracle - the were stretched across the width of the hall - just begging to be stepped in.

Apparently Mr. 2 hour delay let the dog in without letting her outside first.  She NEVER goes back down that hall or into Kate's room.  Never.  She must have really had to go.

It was disgusting!

I am thankful today is Thursday because that means I am one day closer to my big night out with hubby. Can you tell I am excited :) We have never been alone without kids overnight. I think this is long overdue. Wait, that is a lie. Allie did sleep at her Nana's once before Mia was born.

I am thankful for my Keurig :) I never knew true love till I met it,lol. I love my expresso k-cup.

I am thankful for the sun today that has decided to grace us with her presence. It was so beautiful this morning driving into work. I work on Lake St. Clair and it was a bright orange/red sunrise.

I am thankful for Mia's cheesy smile that greeted me this morning.

Yesterday was the biggest clusterf**k of a day I've had in a looooong time.

1. My Advanced A & P class (which I thought started yesterday), actually started last Friday. Whoops.

2. My first meeting with my teacher (after apologizing for 5 min for missing class, and thanking him for not dropping me), involved me having to ask for massive accomodations. I am also taking a nursing asst. course, which has clinicals that last all day for 2 weeks. Those weeks, we take tests, and I would have to reschedule them. He was pissed. I met with him and another teacher to work something out, but noone was happy. They even had me go check with registration to see how much money I would lose if I dropped the CNA class (I would only get back 40%, which is not much).

3. The CNA teacher made me feel like an irresponsible piece of crap because I hadn't made accomodations for clinicals when I asked if I could do them the following week.

4. Went to the dr to have my TB test read (which is required to participate in above mentioned clinicals in 2 weeks). The nurse, who was visibily scared to talk to me, explained that my TB test was invalid, but that she would gladly retest me in 4 weeks. Turns out the H1N1 vaccine (also required for the clinical) that I received that day nulls a TB test for 4 weeks. Of course it does.

5. Back to school, talked to prof #1 (A & P), so now I am officially the demanding flake. Fabulous. Dropped the CNA class, and am in the process of appealing to get my money back.

AAARGH!!

I'm so greatful that today is my Friday. Gonna love being off tomorrow.

Man is it cold today. Well its not that cold 5 degrees but it must feel like -20 out.

Morning!

Today I start taking Kaylin's egg and wheat allergy more seriously. Her tummy is getting bad again. Starting tomorrow, it's out of her diet. Wish me luck as this is no easy task. I'm going to Whole Foods this afternoon so they can help me get started. I know I need to do this for my baby girl, but oh it will be so hard to have to say no to so many things everyone else is eating.

I am thankful for my dyson because my home would take forever to clean without it.

The kids get crumbs everywhere in my kitchen.
