Don’t you hate it when you find something on the internet and then you lose it? And you have no clue how you got there in the first place.
Tomorrow is Monday. I’m not sure if I’m ready for it.
Do you play Tetris? Or do you have more important things to do? Last night I couldn’t get to sleep so I played it on my phone. And I beat it! 151 lines. Simple pleasures.
What’s for dinner?
This afternoon I was trying to remember what I spent most of my free time on during the last week. Nothing came to mind. Did I do nothing productive or can I just not remember? I feel like the past week has been a total blur.
We hit 100 degrees on Friday. Ugh.
I’m so tired of so much.
Beau is napping on the living room floor right now. He was talking in his sleep which was so funny. Something about swings. Now he’s snoring (thanks cold) which is not so funny.
Being a parent is frustrating. And rewarding, but frustrating all the same.
You know what amazes (and disturbs) me? Grown women wearing clothing with cartoon characters on them. I just don’t get it.
We went to a house yesterday that had a big rusty orange rug in the living room. Now I’m thinking rusty orange is great. Rusty orange and light blue.I try to be sympathetic. But sometimes it’s so hard.
I miss green. Green grass. Green hills. Green fields.
It’s funny how people turn out. How people blossom or wither.

I'm terrible about losing things I find on the internet. As a result, I either accept it and move on or I bookmark everything so that I have a trail.
Funny how we have to steel ourselves for Monday.
Rusty orange and light blue sounds lovely! I just flipped through a Martha Stewart that was about color. I'd love to have more color in my life and on my walls, but I get tired of it so quickly.
Have a lovely week.

Oh gosh. I think the same thing about people, the blossom or wither thought. And it doesn't take too long to see which way the flower is going to go. It starts happening by 30. It makes me sad because I feel like I've lost some childhood friends to turning old and shriveled up before their time. No fun at all anymore. withered is a great way of putting it.

I don't know what's for dinner actually… what are you having? I don't get the cartoon character thing either. My ex mom in law used to do it. Weird. Rusty orange and light blue sounds REALLY nice. I like that combo. Southwestish for sure. I gave you some green on our daily blog. Did you see it? 🙂
I've noticed a lot of people in my life that had great blooming potential just wither away… no ambition… (and the pot smoking probably didn't help either!! LOL)

Frustration with children never goes away. My 23 year old was home this weekend. Love to see him, and love to see him go. Sometimes, he brings too much maleness into the house, and I don't know how to take it anymore, so I try to focus on all of his positive traits and ignore the ones I don't like so much. Too late to change him. No do-overs with motherhood.
True about people blooming or withering.
I hope I am a bloomer, but sometimes I think I am withering. Fighting against it all the time, but trying to create new things for myself.
I love your posts! You are very insightful in an amusing way.
Lisa says
Totally agree with Brenda–the frustration never goes away. In fact, it may get worse because they're not going to crawl up into your lap later and tell you they're sorry. On the other hand, I almost started sobbing when my middle one graduated the other day.

LOL, I have a Tinkerbell t-shirt and I love it. But my daughter doesn't like me to wear it out of the house…sometimes I do though. :o)
