Today was not as good of a day. I still sound like a frog so I stayed home from work to try and regroup and get more projects done as the kids went to school. However that plan was significantly shortened when we overslept and the daycare lady was sick so she wanted lorelei picked up early. Even still, i did some more cleaning and made one half of the cake due for work on thursday. Unfortunately part of my day included wanting to mow the lawn instead of having to rake. All the new grass has been growing in nicely and i wanted to mow one last time to pick up the leaves and get ready for winter. And of course, all good things must come to an end, and after half an hour of trying to get the "gosh darn" thing started i gave up and had a complete meltdown!!! I couldnt handle the sense of failure. And its got nothing to do with me having to mow the lawn because i basically did it all summer long, and each time had trouble starting it, so it was to be expected, but it never did start....and now i don't have an alternate muscle to help me. I had planned on Chris being here to help me mow, but that didn't happen either...so now I'm left with two choices, asking for help (not my favorite activity) or paying bobby next door to do it for me. Not something i want to fork over just because i failed....
THe rest of the afternoon just got more trying...i can't speak loudly and i got two phone calls back to back and while i was on the phone it got progressively more and more louder in the background (naturally) so by the time bedtime rolled around...i was completely spent!! Hence the post being late. The one bright spot is that i'm now officially NOT pregnant.... not that i had expected to be, but its just one nice thing that i can count on over the next 12 months. :)
