A whine and a challenge

Usually I wake up empowered on Monday mornings.

Ready to tackle the messes made over the weekend...
organize my week...
catch up on blogs...

This morning, however, I was totally caught off guard by my period.
(Sorry, male readers.)

So I'm staying in my jammies.

And drinking coffee.

And maybe, I'll fold some clothes later.

But for now, I'm tired.

Some months it just hits me harder than others, and I feel like I've been hit by a Mack truck.

Back to bed sounds like a great option.

And I've got some great European chocolate...

Thank goodness I don't have to be anywhere today.


I just had a silly idea.
Tell me your best joke today.

I'll start:

What did the duck say when he went into the drugstore?

"Give me some chapstick and put it on my bill."

Okay, friends.
Make me laugh.

    What is this, National Start Your Period Day?

    Here is a joke my son told me at dinner tonight.

    Why should you never take your clothes off in front of Pokemon?

    Because they might Pikachu!

    UGH!

    Here (sad to say) is the best joke I know.

    Why do cherry trees smell?

    Because George Washington cut one!

    I have been around my kids for too long.

    Karla - both of your jokes made me laugh out loud.

    Apparently I've been around my kids too long, too!

    Okay, this joke so involves hand gestures, though.
    A horse walks into a bar and the bartender says, "Why the long face?"
    Get it? The horse has a long face. Cracks me up EVERY time. Hope you're feeling better since this was written.

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want. So today, in light of mid-winter doldrums, I want you to answer the following three questions. To escape mid-winter doldrums, I like to: My favorite winter memory is: I know Spring is coming when: Okay, friends. Now it's your turn. Go to it.

The floodgates have opened.

So, I was doing pretty well managing my emotions. I kept telling people that I had processed a lot of my grieving over Tejan's departure back in January - when we were so close to saying goodbye... and so that must be why I wasn't feeling overly emotional about it this time around. I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well. I didn't tear up - or need tissue for any fluids defiantly leaking from my facial orifices... until I made the a...
