For You

Maybe you need a Monday, February 1st day brightener. I'm your girl. Some thoughts to make you feel better about your own life.

1. I am 4 years behind on my children's photo albums. Which means I have 12 pictures of Tims as a newborn and coming home from the hospital.

2. Our cat, Griffen hoarked on two different rugs this past weekend. He hasn't apologized. Pray for him. He is not a Christian cat, even though we have witnessed to him for 11 years now.

3. If you were to stop by right now you might be amazed to see what a weekend around here does to our home. Yikes.

4. I'm sure I will be fine on the 5 hours sleep I got last night. Just fine.

5. Timmers is sick.

6. I am feeling a tad under the weather myself. I just need to remind myself that Mothers can't be sick.

7. I have one more. I will be 45 in 9 months.


Feeling better?

HANG IN THERE!!!!

Sorry, anyway, my friend. Is there anything I can do? (This offer is limited to, but not including adopting Griffen.)

Carla said...

FYI
I can't stand the expression Hang In There. Which is why Erin uses it. Funny girl.

Clifford is barking on tv. I can always count on the big, red dog. Thanks for the offer. :) Doing as little as possible while making it look like I really do a lot.

I'm sorry you are not well. We have had alot of crud go through our house lately, too. The number two point you wrote about your cat Griffen made me LAUGH OUT LOUD! My cat has been known to "hoark" on carpet, stairs, and rugs too, but never the bare floor where it would be ever so easy to clean up. :) ~Jeanette

You deserve a prize for this quote. You had me in stitches! Too funny!

I'm sorry you've been sick...hope it doesn't last long!!

Carla,

I hope you are sleeping well tonight!

I wish I could think of something to brighten your day.

Hmmm....Eduardo Verastegui.

(How did I do?)

Carla said...

A nap always brightens my day.

Karla with a K said...

I love naps! Even 10 minutes.
Incidentally, I had only 5 hours sleep Sunday night as well. I was non-functioning by 7:30 pm (because I didn't get a nap.)
Feeling better today - 7 hours last night.

Are you feeling better? How about Tims?

Carla said...

Since Timmers has been talking non stop since he woke up I am assuming he feels better.

Me? Kinda on that edge. It could go either way.

Carla said...

Chris,
Thank you for that good advice. I try very hard not to hoark on the rugs.

Jeanette and Bethany,
Thanks. :)

Chris Arsenault said...

Carla - praying you get better - however, eating dirty snow?? Better cover the rugs.. heh

Verify word: liona

Carla said...

Thank you for the prayers!

We have mountains of snow. Maybe if I keep eating it, spring will come.

I always feel better knowing you're wayyy older than me. Thanks.

I'm sorry that I've used the phrase Hang In There. I didn't know it bugged you. But when I say it, I really mean it. Like, don't give up! Keep pressing on! That type of thing.

Just sayin. :(

Carla said...

I like Don't Give Up and Keep Pressing On!!
Now let's say it for fun, Kris!(If you have used it with me I doubt that it was dismissive as it usually is used)

Hang in there! :)
