I'm in a random mood.

*Hubby went back to work as of Tuesday. The Gibbon and I have finally gotten back on schedule for the first time in 5 months. In the first hour alone, I had the dishes done, laundry in, and the kitchen & dining room floors swept and mopped. That's more that got done than in the 142 days hubby's been home, or at least it feels like it.

I've never been more excited to have a schedule in my life.

*I found this while cleaning:
*The crayfish is no longer. We came down one morning to see only a claw left behind. Two days later the catfish died. Maybe his last meal did him in?

*The Gibbon was hosting an imaginary bbq tonight, with cupcakes for dessert. He got 40, I got 40, and daddy got 2. Why? Because Daddy's getting fat. My fingers are crossed that our talk on why calling people fat isn't nice actually sunk in. Please, oh please, don't let him repeat that again!

*Oh, and we had one other loss in the house. Those exciting sprouts coming up just a few weeks ago...I forgot them. I'm sure taught the little one the importance of caring for other things. You don't care for them, they die. A sweet sentiment to teach my kid, right? I try.

We're taking much better care of our sunflowers though. Live and learn, right?

The Results Are In...

A big fat negative. It's what I expected, but not what I was hoping for. I really was thinking that this may finally be the month. So not only am I upset about the results, I'm also annoyed with hubby.

The store is five minutes away. Yet, the trip took him an hour and a half. He couldn't find tests at the first store, so he ran elsewhere, ran into people he knew, yada yada yada, and he forgot his cell at home. He pulled in the drive right as I had started putting GM in the car to go look for him. I honestly was freaking out thinking something had happened. All the while, GM's telling me not to worry, "think about other things, like balloons, mommy."

On a positive note, we took the little one for a hike today and had a blast. We walked the trails, played at the playgrounds, and got to see crayfish, squirrels, and frogs.
