What a day!! It was cold and rainy (but at least it wasn't snow!) all day. We even had a thunderstorm...in February...go figure. I was stuck inside all day with two crabby guys except for when I got to leave the house to do two of my favorite activities...go to Dr.'s and grocery shopping. Yeah. However...on the up-side...I did work the library into my first trip and the book store into my second.
I must confess...I have a problem. I am addicted to reading!! There my dirty little (or not so little) secret is out. Even worse than that I guess is that in my entire life I have never gotten rid of more than 10 books...total...ever!!! I also keep a data base of all the books I own...at home and work. Altogether there are over 2000. I am a junkie.
I am getting better about using the library, but sometimes they don't have what I need and I have to get it at the bookstore. I am also not a bargain shopper and I am into instant gratification...most of the time. Today I went to the library and was looking for Kiss the Girls by James Patterson. I had just finished Along Came a Spider and wanted to read the next book (I had read London Bridges awhile back and I have this "thing" where I have to read a series in the correct order). Can you believe that they had just about every other book in the series except that one??!! So I checked the other libraries in the county to see about a loan...nope. I couldn't believe it. That left me with one option...bookstore. Thankfully they had it. Honestly, if they wouldn't have had it I probably would've had an anxiety attack. Ok. Probably not...but I would have been upset.
Ok...so anyway. I eventually had to go home to the two crabby loves of my life. My darling hubby has been a complete bear all week (we are both on vacation this week). He is normally a wonderful hubby and father and keeps me and our son "balanced." So, when hubby is off...we are all off. Anyway, our son has been into EVERYTHING lately (he is two) and it's been driving hubby nuts. Me too...but not as much. The last straw came today when "son" bit "hubby." This is the first time that "son" has bitten anyone. It was actually kinda funny (yes, I know it's not nice and it's wrong to think that)...he bit my husband's butt. I couldn't help it. Once I had made sure my hubby was o.k. (no skin was broken) and put the little guy in time out...I went to the bedroom and laughed!!! He got bit on the butt!!!!
I hope tomorrow is better. We are taking "son" to see "Elmo's Coloring Book." Yippee. Just the way I want to spend the day...with a bunch of wee ones crammed together (I'm am SO not crazy about crowds). Well, hopefully "son" will like it and hubby won't be cranky. I'm sure I will be my usual happy, cheerful self (right). Wish me luck.
Oh!! Lights just flickered!! Surprised I'm still online...better go.
Until next time...
