Over the mysteries of female life there is drawn a veil best left undisturbed.

Having one of those weeks where nothing I do seems to satisfy me. My house isn't clean enough, my work isn't good enough, my cooking isn't tasty enough, my clothes don't fit right. I just have those BLAH blues this week. Could have something to do with the time of the month :P

But this definitely made me laugh last night. If you were standing outside my bedroom door, this is what you would have heard:

me: laughing at some cute thing she said
sarah: "Can you actually stop the laughing now?"
me: laughing harder "Ok, baby"
(off in the distance someone in the house passes gas - SOOOOO not me - guess that leaves you trey :P )
sarah: "Can you actually stop the farting please?"
me: "bwahahahaha...that was daddy, sarah!"
(silence for a couple minutes. I turn my head and exhale.)
sarah: Can you stop breathing through your nose? It's driving me crazy!
me: laughing (I wanted to say "excuse me for breathing" but I know she would have picked that one up and used it against me at some future date. This kid is quick....can't give her more ammunition than I'm ready to handle, lol.


While Sarah was in school today, I cleaned and vacuumed my scraproom. It's still a hot mess with boxes all piled in one corner, but until I get enough money saved up to buy another piece of furniture, that is where it is going to stay. I hate it but I've got no choice other than to deal with it. What I'm really looking for is a storage bench that will look pretty closed with some pillows, but at the same time house the chaos. I found a great one at Pier 1, but of course they discontinued it. Just my luck. ETA:: Pier 1 found one for me!!! And at half off! Things like this don't happen to me so someone up there must have known I needed a smile this week...thanks ;)

The Label Tulip reveal was last night and it was an awesome one! I love what the other TG's did with this kit. Such a great mix of talent at that site. Here's what my feeble mind came up with during the mighty waves of hormones and bloating that plagued me this weekend. TMI much??










I'm gonna go change the laundry out and fold about a hundred tiny pairs of white socks. I swear it's a form of chinese water torture, isn't it!
