Not really. Today has kind of sucked.

I got a stain on my new maternity shirt. On the chest, dead center. I don’t know exactly when I got it. Sometime between putting it on and now. It appears to be some kind of food item. It is possible that I went through my entire day wearing it. It’s no wonder people don’t take me seriously.

I tried to take a photo of Julia in her Christmas dress for our holiday greeting cards. It did not go well. That’s all I’m going to say about it.

I have three large zits on my nose.

I am enormously pregnant. I’m only halfway to the goal and I’m beginning to feel afraid about how big I’m going to get.

After dinner, Julia informed me that she was going to make a party for her grandpa. A short time later, I learned that meant wrapping the dining room in toilet paper.

At one point today, she filled up eight glasses with water and lined them up on the floor of the kitchen. I found them with my feet. I’m not sure what she was doing, but I didn’t like it.

I haven’t been able to get her to wear pants since we returned home from ballet class.

Something, somewhere in our basement leaked. I am angry about it. I kicked some boxes around and said the f-word a few times. It didn’t fix the leak, but it made me feel a little better.

My house is wrecked. It looks like a bomb went off in here. There is debris everywhere and I am just too tired to pick it up.

As I was putting Julia to bed, she informed me that she likes grandma more than me.

Yeah, today bites.

    Soooo, I guess today wouldn’t be a good day to come over with the kids for coffee?:)
    Tomorrow will be better.
    Mondays do suck.
    ((((hugs))))

    Today does suck.

    I hope tomorrow is much better, sending hugs and virtual chocolate.

    Most of my days go like that. LOL. Hang in there…

    And the picture taking for greeting cards still isn’t going well. Maybe I’ll just send out generic cards this year. BTW, are you interested in a card exchange?

  4. heathersway on November 27, 2007 11:22 am

    Umm… This too shall pass? Yeah, I got nothing but cliches and a big hug sent your way.

    I’m sorry you had such a crappy day. Wish I had a maternity top to send you, but all mine were stained anyway. It’s expected.

    BTW, your haiku is up! :)

  6. susiej on November 27, 2007 6:50 pm

    It does suck. I’ll give you that — but I couldn’t stop laughing.

  7. Jen in MI on November 27, 2007 7:45 pm

    Huge hugs, Leslie! But remember that it’s Grandma’s job to be liked better than you. BTW… tagged you today - come on over! ;-)

  8. Joe on November 27, 2007 7:57 pm

    Maybe she is like that girl in Signs? With the water and all? That was LOL funny even though I can see it sucking to go through. F-Bombs are theraputic. ;)

    Sorry to hear I’m not the only one that has problems taking Christmas photos with the kids. Just wait until next year. Good luck.

    So, um, I’m re-thinking that thing I said before about how I should be invited to all your parties. Clearly I was unaware of the tp’d dining rooms.

    On the upside, days like these are good for blog fodder. About the stain thing, if you figure out how that happens I’d like to know because I have small thumb size stains on three of my shirts in the !exact same spot! Weird.

    Some days really bite. I know. Been there. Done that. Sent the postcard. Bought the T-shirt. And proceeded to get a large stain right over the logo on the front that cannot be removed other than by scissors. (sigh) Glad to know you still have your sense of humor Darlin’!
