Just goes to show ya. On a lighter note I wore my pink boots to school today since it was raining and pouring and really I felt like snoring thru the morning. But schlepped the children and myself to school, promptly at our appointed hours.<\/p>\n<p>And class was cancelled. I&#8217;ve been feeling peaked myself so I did not at all begrudge Mrs. L. \u00a0her untimely (and incredibly convenient) illness. I was then able to continue to &#8220;memorize&#8221; my 2 minute talk in Dr. C&#8217;s class. Which I swear to you was a 2 minute talk till I forgotted like 38 seconds of it. Seriously. The boys and I typed it up and recorded me on the web cam, and somewhat also recorded them on the webcam. I wish I knew where it saved those videos, because they&#8217;re probably pretty cute. The O&#8217;boyzies would hand me stuff to use. &#8220;Here mom, you should hold up the ball of yarn, here, the crochet hook&#8221; and I had I swear to you, one minute fifty beautiful seconds of it. Which I seem to have blacked out for, I heard myself babbling about how fabulous a fad Amigurumi was in Japan, and not including anything about how I make my own patterns for the little stuffed animals because I know all the stitches, whatever. I&#8217;m excited to see what grade I got. If I missed a point for going under a minute fifty, maybe I got a point for never ever saying Uuummm&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The rain this morning surprised me. I dragged my butt out the door and the little boys frolicked about and cavorted round the driveway in the rain till I got the garage door open. Little bit slippery in the rain. I didn&#8217;t think it was that bad till I walked out in it. So I of course decided to don complete rain gear. Galoshes and a rain jacket. Which guaranteed I&#8217;d be sweltering all day but hey, who doesn&#8217;t feel cheery in pink boots. Oh and lots of caffeinated goodness. And\u00a0ibuprofin. Yeah I was\u00a0in a great\u00a0mood today. Don&#8217;t\u00a0forget\u00a0pain and misery are optional.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wrote a post this afternoon on the last little droplet of battery acid&#8230; and it promptly closed the whole world down the second I thought I had clicked &#8220;save&#8221; or whatever.
