Good Girl

Today started out a little crazy!

The Mister left way before I had to get up, and I overslept.

I didn't even hear the coffee pot right by my head brew or

beep loudly 5 times when it was done!

I had 20 minutes to get the boys ready for the bus

without coffee...not even my half decaf cup!

In that time I also had to stop a nose bleed and unclog a toilet.

 But we made it with 3 minutes to spare to watch out the window!
After the boys had gone, I found Alex's one important prescription
pill on the floor.  He had dropped it while taking his pills!
 I said a quick prayer that he would have a good day 
and no anger issues without it.

So I spent the morning baking cookies!

Cookies always make everything better, especially

homemade ones with real butter, vanilla bean paste

and Ghirardelli chocolate chips.

Everything felt better after a cookie (or three) and more coffee.

 I was pleasantly surprised to discover that my cookies had 

less calories than I was expecting!  And since I called

 them 'lunch' my Fitbit says I was still a good girl today! ha.

Recipe here.

Random Thoughts

1. My little miniature rose bush is hanging on, even though it's winter and it has to live inside in the dry air.  It even gave me a tiny, sweet bloom today.  The dust mites are trying to kill it, but so far I've been able to drown them in a kitchen sink shower each week.
2. I'm the only one in this house that can take their socks off, keeping them right side out.  I thought maybe you had to fold laundry to teach yourself the importance of this proactive ritual, but when the mister folded laundry for me when I was at the hospital with Spencer, he folded socks and left them wrong side out. ha.  He also put my socks in the boys closet and my jammies in their dresser! :)
3. Anybody have a Fitbit?  I've had mine 4 days now and love it.
4. I've had 6 couple cardinals at the feeder today!  I guess Mr. and Mrs. Cardinal were having a dinner party!
5. The boys actually went to their day program today.  They only went one day last week due to the negative wind chills.  We haven't had a full week of 'school' since before Christmas break!  The Farmer's Almanac predicted an extremely cold winter and I think we would have to admit that they were right!  Now some are predicting a baby boom this October. ha.

Thanks to all who participated in my RAK adventure the last two 

weeks!  Only two more weeks to go!

Spread some kindness this week and be prepared to

share and inspire the rest of us here on Friday!
