Most of the time I look forward to Monday. I don’t know why I’m not this week, but there it is, I’m not looking forward to it.
We had a nice anniversary though. Sure, we couldn’t go anywhere or do anything, but we did play with the kids and really, isn’t that the best reason to remind you of what an anniversary is about? Your wedding’s birthday – and look what our getting married has accomplished! These 2 awesome babies who are the light of our life. 
We worked on a project together – not sure what – if anything – will come of it but it was nice to have a joint effort thing going on there.
And I was so distracted by other stuff that I forgot to get my football picks up in time – which is a real bummer because I would have done well in the early games. Thankfully my beloved Patriots beat the Dolphins so that was happiness.
Beyond that … nothing. My kids were pretty low-key this weekend, meaning no funny stuff. Darc made me laugh a few times with some wise-acre crack he made at the TV but I can’t recall what exactly it was he said that made me chuckle.
Oh yeah – the weather was beautiful this weekend – a rarity here in Chicagoland in November. We got up to 70° on Saturday, so that was awesome. And since I’ve been reduced to talking about the stupid weather, I’m stopping now!
Have a great one!
PS – Of course, after I post this, my daughter does something I think is amazingly sweet for a 4 y/o. KnytLite was bemoaning his lack of chocolate milk – he’d already gone through his quota of the day. MiniNess heard him and said, “I still have some left Knytie, you can have mine!” This child is just too sweet, thoughtful, and generous to have come from me! Share chocolate milk? Never! And yet she does so – gladly. Lessons from babies, no?

So that’s 11, right? Or is it 12?
What is the material for that year? Thermofoil laminate? Plaster? That stuff mousepads are made of?
Anyhoo, happy anniversary!
It’s 11, and great memory you have! I’m not sure what the material is – might be the mousepad stuff but I’d have to look it up.
Thanks hon.

Sounds like a perfect way to celebrate to me! Isn’t it cool when the kids shoot us reminders? Here’s hoping that today turns into a Monday you would rather keep.
Thanks sweetie.
The kids are awesome and I’m reminded daily of that!
I hope it turns into a keeper too.

I’m with Jaymie on this one Ness. Your weekend sounded good to me; and what that little one said is just too sweet! It seems adults could take some lessons in kindness from the hearts of the children; as it’s written, ‘out of the mouth of babes and suckllings, thou hast perfected praise’…
Hoping your week is great!
Out of the mouths of babes, indeed! That’s the thought that was going through my mind too.
You have a great week too, but I’m sure I’ll be seeing you around!

What a little sweetheart, sharing with her big bubba. Monday is always a relief for me, because everybody’s back in school and work and I have a quiet house…for a few hours, anyway. Hope yours turns out to be a good’un.
Usually I kind of look forward to Monday, getting back in a groove sort of thing, but this week, it just isn’t there. Might have something to do with that sink-full of dirty dishes. Maybe.

Football. Sigh. The Texans made me weep. We almost beat the Colts. Next time.
Sure would have been nice to see them taken off that undefeated pedestal, but I guess the Texans just figured they’d let us have that job.
Next time for sure the Texans will kick some Colts butt!
Love you baby sis! *hugs*

Chocolate fixes just about anything! Especially in liquid form. Warmed up with cinnamon.
You know Sara dear, that sounds like the perfect idea! I’m going to go make a cup.
Thanks!

There was a place that used to serve cinnamon milk too. Just put milk in a mug and sprinkle on cinnamon and microwave. I add honey after it’s hot. Great for bedtime. Oh, and do you have a Trader Joe’s near you. OMG they just put cherry cide on the shelves and had it heated when you came in the store. Unbelievable.
No, no Trader Joe’s – we used to live kind of near one, but then we moved and now it’s several miles away. I do love cherry though!
Cinnamon milk sounds intriguing. I’m not a huge cinnamon fan – I like it, don’t get me wrong, just more of a chocolate person – but adding honey to that sounds like a liquid cinnamon roll. Yum!

That is so me today. I could not get my juice going and still as I write this comment feel like blahhhhhhh… tomorrow is a better day!
Maybe it’s something weather related? I dunno, but I feel that “meh” too. Ho-hum, blah, zzzzzzz.
Yeah, weather sounds good.

Oh my goodness, what a sweetie! I never share my chocolate milk. Never.
Happy belated Anniversary, though! Yay!
Aw, thank you sweetie! *hugs* to you – I hope your birthday was great!
And chocolate milk was meant to be savored, not shared.

I hate sharing chocolate milk.
Me too! I’m more of a “get your own glass” kind of girl when it comes to chocolate milk, lol.
