The week has definitely gotten better. The boys have been...well, not perfect angels...but still much better behaved that one might have guessed. I am VERY impressed. And now, I'm probably jinxed. Oh well, it has been a lot of fun. Today is rainy and we haven't been able to get out and play. We need the rain though, if for nothing else, than to get all the icky pollen off of every surface. Everything has a yellow haze on it and my eyes are itching like crazy!

Poor kids are sneezing and snuffling too. Thank God for Zyrtec! Even the dog has been sneezing. Fun, fun. Let's hope the rain settles things a bit.

Spring Break...or Adventures in Temper Management...

Okay, Day 2 of the Spring Break begins and I'm already annoyed. The boys were up at the crack o' dawn this morning, barracking to play with the toys they got last night. I rolled over, opened one sleepy eye and saw the time: 5:32 a.m. I said "NO" and tried to go back to sleep. Ha! Fat chance. From then on out, every 2 minutes it was "Mommy, are you awake yet?" "Mommy, can we get up now?" "Mommy, I'm hungry." and on and on until I finally had to give up and get up. I'll rise, but dammit, I won't shine. Not at that hour of the morning, and especially not on Spring Break. Let's hope the week gets better.
