One of those weeks…

Some weeks are just “blah”, ya know?
This was one of them.  I try to remember those poor people who have no rice to eat and are starving in China because of the typhoon and not feel sorry for me.  But then I remember that we have each been given a lot in life and what is hard to others may not be difficult for me and vice versa.

So I try to give myself some grace in this “blah” week.  Hormones, hubbie being gone, being tired, not feeling good….who knows what it is – or maybe it’s all of them combined!

Yesterday evening we ate dinner at 3:30 at Applebees.  I was on my way home from the chiropractor, all the kids were hungry and I had no energy for cooking so I succumbed to the restaurant temptation and we feasted on cheese sticks, salad and water.  It was SO nice not to have to worry about dinner come 5pm when all mine are usuallly STARVING (or so they say).

We enjoyed the evening without anything to do and the kids all ate a bowl of cereal before bed.  I’m thinking my next Works for Me Wednesday might be just that….feed kids dinner at 3:30pm EVERY night!

Since we ate so early I took the camera outside and took pictures.  My daughter is about the only one who will sit still anymore for me.  The rest of the gang was here, there and everywhere.

So here’s baby girl….a straight out of the camera shot with a touch of saturation.  I didn’t have the energy to do any more tweaking so here she is…..sippy cup and all…

Here is a shot of my FAVORITE bush in the yard and yes, I know it’s name but I don’t have the energy to look up how to spell it…
So here’s the pink bush…


Hope you have a great Friday!
