Ugh, its been one of those mornings. Woke up with a sore throat, Jordyn's still feeling crappy. I just couldn't get out of bed, couldn't find my water bottle to wet my hair down, couldn't figure out what to wear. Its going to be in the 70's here today, but the office is freezing. I'll have to get my sweater out of the car at lunch. I guess I'll be running to the store for throat lozanges on lunch and I'm beginning to panic a bit about Christmas. I just feel so unorganized this year and feel like I haven't gotten anything bought. Jordyn went to practice last night, but I'm not sure about tonight, depends on how she feels. And hopefully her new cell phone comes today, the charging unit in her other one isn't working so we had to swap out phones, so I need to take it once it comes to the store to have them transfer all the data from one phone to the other.
Good Morning! I was really angry at my kids constant bickering over the past few days so I went on strike! I was working when they got home yesterday so I left them a note telling them that I was not doing anything nice for kids who can't find anything nice to say to me. (Dad was already home when they arrived, but he stuck to my note) Told em Dad and I were going out to eat because I needed a break from their behavior/attitudes and they could fix thier own dinners (choices limited to scrambles eggs, grilled cheese or ramen noodles). And that they couldn't make brownies as previously planned because treats were for those who deserved them. We got home around 8:30pm to find some very chastised kids. Had a very heart to heart talk with them and sent them to bed. This morning they were both on their very best behavior and I made them chocolate chip muffins for breakfast. I even got a thank you!
Today looks low-key, have some errands to run. We have another winter storm coming over the weekend, looking like lots of snow. Gonna stock up on movies and munchies so we can stay home and relax!
Wow, seems like lots of sickies this time of year. I hope everyone is better soon. I have Kristen drinking cough syrup like kool-aid. She'll get a 10 on her behaviour sticker today because she's too buzzed out to misbehave. LOL She started with the coughing and threw up a little last night. Dang that gag reflex. Haven't received a phone call yet so I assume she's surviving.

This morning I don't have a ton of stuff going on.
