It must be the day

I am definitely moping.

Today, I think everything sucks. Today, I am allowing myself to be in a bad mood and just go with the flow. Claire doesn't want to play with toys. She wants to watch her library movies. Label me a bad mother, but you can't convince an almost 3 year old to do something she doesn't want to do. Believe me. I've tried.

So here I am in a bad mood. Not really a bad mood - more like a mood. I have nothing to be down about, but everything seems to be on my nerves. Like Claire running upstairs because she hears someone walking around. Or my MIL eating lunch at 2:30 when I'll be making dinner at 6. Or the library being too busy. Ugh. This day just needs to end!

On a better note my husband's birthday is tomorrow. Claire and I are going to make him a cake. Don't tell him, but it's a Weight Watchers recipe that I'm trying. Shhhhh. It's chocolate raspberry which I know he likes so can I go wrong? I reallllllllly hope it doesn't turn out to be a big flop like a previous birthday cake did.

My birthday is 10 days away. My best-friend is treating me to a night out. Her husband gave her an awesome budget to spend on me, and we're thinking dinner and a movie with the rest of the girls. I feel so beyond blessed that she wants to do something for my birthday. Really, my cup runneth over. On my actual birthday my husband said he'd take me to Bonefish Grill which I have been dying to try. It's healthy and I can still count points (maybe, as I've heard their Sangria is to die for.)

Okay, need to get dinner started. My goal is to have it put together so all I have to do is put it in the oven at 5:30 and we can be eating by 6:00. Trying a new recipe. Results pending.

I hear you girl. That "bad day" for me was yesterday. It's not that anyone went to the hospital or my cat died... just a lot of really really annoying things in a row.

PS, you don't have to tell James its a WW recipe! He'll love it! That paella I made? Lex LOVED it. I really love that WW doesn't sacrifice taste, they just focus on portion control.

I hope you have an awesome birthday. You are really lucky to have a close friend who is going to do that for you! I spose I'd do that for any of my good friends if they lived in the same town. :/
