There have been days when I had to force myself to get out of bed. There have been days when I couldn't even make myself get out of bed and so I laid there all day looking at the ceiling or the wall. I just have this "blah" feeling. This feeling that I need to cry instead of smile. Call it a pity party, or depression, or whatever....it just stinks. I'm working at fixing that.
I went to the salon and had my hair done. Got a short cut with layers. Now I can't even get a ponytail out of what's left:) Great way to force me to fix it in the mornings. I got highlights too. Nothing really drastic, just different from the same old drabby/frumpy me that I'm used to seeing when I look in the mirror.
Delaney got a new puppy. This makes four that we have now (in case you lost count!) Our house is chock full of chihuahuas now. (I love that phrase-but can't take credit for it. Thank you, SkippyJon Jones) She calls her little pup Co-co, or Cocoa. Wait til she learns to spell and then I'll ask her which is the correct way. Until then, it's just Co-co pup. Reminds me of the cereal, Cocoa puffs. Great, now I'm hungry. For some reason, all of our four-legged, furry babies end up with food names. Sugar, honey, tater, cocoa....sounds like a weird recipe to me. Or maybe it's just suitable for the residents of McNabb Land.
Still haven't come up with any idea of what to review for CSN. I've noticed that alot of the blogs I read are doing reviews for them as well. I've been watching to see what they select, hoping to get ideas. No luck yet. The girls are having trouble agreeing on one item. They all want something different. I guess that means that I'll have to pick something that everyone can enjoy.
Paisley had a field trip to Chattanooga yesterday. We went to the Creative Discovery Museum. I always chaperone their trips. She had fun, and I got to watch 6 girls and 4 boys (the group we were in charge of) run around like little crazy people. It's a shame that I was the only parent that signed up to chaperone her class. A smaller group to be in charge of would have made it easier to spend time with Paisley. I dragged (drug?!) my sister along with me. Come to think of it, she goes on all of their field trips too (I love you sissy-poo!)
If you think of it, and feel led to do so, could you please say a little prayer for my dad? He's going thru a hard time right now. I'm worried about him, my mom, my brother. Just worried about everything, I guess. Your prayers would be appreciated:)
Hugs to you all. I'm sorry I haven't been commenting on your blogs lately. I do still read everything, I just feel so "blah" that I can't really think of anything good to say to anyone. I do still think of all of my blogging friends often though, and am so glad to have you all in my life.












Creative Discovery Museum is my granddaughters favorite kids museum - hands down. But 10 kids to watch had to have been tiring. I will be saying a prayer for your father, your mom, and your brother. Things just have to start getting better for you soon. I love the name of all 4 of your dogs - never concentrated on them being food related until now. LOL I'd love to have someone take a picture of your new haircut so we can all see the new you. Good luck starting to feel better and not feel down in the dumps all the time. Hugs to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see the pic of the haircut if you get a chance!
ReplyDelete4 dogs! Wow! I can't wait to get a dog. Once we fence in the new yard I am so getting one.
Hope you feel better soon!
Hoping you feel UP! soon and not so down. It's not good to be down ya know. And sometimes I feel the same way with the comment thing, like I have absolutely nothing to say worthwhile, so once in a while I'll skip out there too! I just figured you must have a lot on your plate lately.
ReplyDeleteKaleena...As I said in my e-mail to you, you know that you can write me any time....and that I'm thinking of you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI hope your smile returns soon....
Hugs to you from Jackie
Your title describes how I have felt lately.
ReplyDeleteThen too, when life around us gets so hectic it is hard to sit and blog. Or sometimes for me to know what I should blog about. How to word things and not sound like a total dork when I do so.
I've been in this slump since coming back from vacation and having so much to do around home and the office.
Thinking of you and your family hoping all is well.
Blessings,
Verna
Hope you are feeling better my friend. I have been missing you around blogland.
