Is anyone else not crazy about Halloween? I just don't find tombstones/skeletons/zombies that amusing anymore. It makes me shudder that when my oldest daughter was little I dressed her up as a baby angel for her first Halloween. What was I thinking? I can't even look at those photos anymore. And most the skeletons and skull decorations are not full size, so I keep thinking they are exactly child size.
Anyway, just having a kind of weirded out week so thought I'd throw my ramblings out there to see if anyone else is having similar thoughts.
Hope this week is gentle for you-

Kick Me When I'm Down
Have you ever had a bad week and then something comes along and kicks you in the head?
That has been my week!
Care to join me for a pity party??
I unknowingly violated a trademarked name so I have take the Sandwritten site down. That super stinks.
A leak in my kitchen ceiling... drip, drip, drip. I know it is these crummy plastic pipes. We really need to repipe the whole house but I haven't had an extra $3000 lying around (and I'll tell you true- if I did have an extra $3000 I'd be buying tickets for the family to go to Hawaii! Repiping my house is not even close to top of my priority list)
A kid with pnemonia- again. 3 times since February. And waking up in the middle of the night with a few worrisome hours wondering if I should take another one to the emergency room. Actually, just mom worry in general. Worry that I'm not doing enough or the right things for my kids.
Money. 'nuff said
I'm going to try the 'I get to..'
I get to have a roof over my head (it is totally leaking, but it is there)
I get to treasure my minutes with my kids- I try not to look to tomorrow but really enjoy today.
I'm not sure about the 'I get to..' for the sandwritten thing. I'm still working on that one.
((hugs))
peace-

World's most insensitive commercials
Does anyone else hate the new VW commercials with Brooke Shields accusing people of getting pregnant just so they have an excuse to buy a VW? I have so many friends that either can not get pregnant or have lost their baby and are missing them. This commercial has got to be one of the most insensitive commercials I have seen and I cringe when one comes on.
A close second is the 'Have a happy period' advertising slogan currently being used by Always brand maxi pads by Proctor & Gamble. Idiots.
