Evens Are Not Always Better



My creativity button is shot for now (has been for a while, really), so letting off a little steam and random thoughts are what's in store for this entry. Right, so, we're well into the new year now. 2010 has been kicking my butt on the stress level, though. Man! I have had some crazy news that has just blown me away, and stressful moments with my son crying before school. Things like that have been going on a lot since the middle of January. Luckily things have calmed a bit recently, though. Let me just pause here to knock on wood. Ok, back to blabbing. On a positive note, I did make contact with my brother after a 11 year or so hiatus. Wow! Yeah, I contacted him around New Year's actually, he called me, we talked, now we're Facebook buddies. Oh, the times, the times. It's funny how nowadays we judge how liked we are by how many Facebook friends we have. I know, I know, that's not how it is for everyone. It is a great way to keep in touch, but with all of the viruses and jerks stealing identities, it's making me miss the old days of talking on the phone or writing a letter. Even email is starting to go by the wayside. You either send a text, which I can't do (I don't have unlimited text and my hubby would kill me if I ran up the bill just to tell my sister what I'm watching on tv), or just post a comment on Facebook. My son has Spring Break now, so I've got to get to planning what we're going to do. I can't believe they're predicting snow for Sunday. I'm hoping that it will at least just be a dusting and not major coverage. Right now, my nose is stuffed up, my lips are a little raw, and my hubby is annoyed with me for not getting it on with him. It is really difficult to get in the mood, however, when your mouth has been hanging open all day. I did do a little nose spray earlier in the day which helped, but I don't like doing it too much. I don't want to completely singe my nostrils. Ah well, I suppose that's enough ranting for now.
