Have you ever...

Have you ever...

---stopped to fill up your car when you still had over 1/2 a tank of gas just because gas was cheap and you were afraid it would jump again (2.29 today!!!)

---felt the need to turn to the person behind you in the grocery check out line and explain to them the need for personal space!

---fought the urge to turn to a strange child in the grocery story and tell them to shut up!

---realized 1/2 way through your laundry cycling that you never put in the detergent

---wanted the day to last just a few hours longer so you can get more done

---wished for Wednesdays more than once a week (I have 2 hours of no kids on Wednesdays)

---had a wacky urge to do a cartwheel on wet grass - yeah, don't know where this came from

---wished for the right words to tell a friend that they need to dump their problems on someone else because you are already on overload -- without managing to offend them (nearly impossible)

---threw all your laundry into one load because it takes too much time/energy/and water to separate all the different colors.

---wanted to go to bed for the night at 6:00 pm

If you've ever done any of these things, then you are having a day like I am today.

    Yup to most of those. However, I've never forgotten the detergent for the laundary. However, recently, I forgot to take my cherry chapstick out of my pocket, and now all of Brian's favorite white polos have pink chapstick stains. Yeah, that didn't go over very well. ;)

    yikes - you and your chapsticks.

    Just tell Brian that pink is very fashion forward for a guy!

    If you wash it with a couple other colored chapsticks, he could have a multi-colored shirt. :)

    Becs: washing clothes in separate loads is the biggest hoax/conspiracy since... I dunno, the naming of Pluto as a planet. Unless you're washing a brand new, brightly colored piece of clothing, don't bother sorting. The detergent is kind of important tho...
