I just can't think of titles anymore. I'm too tired. Why am I tired? You know, I really am not sure why I am tired. I have felt like this for a week now.

Maybe it's because I think I am getting carpal (sp?) tunnel in my left hand also now, so my arms are falling asleep while I am sleeping so I toss and turn each night. Time for a wrist guard for the other arm.

Maybe it's because I didn't fill my thyroid medicine for four days (first time ever I did that) and now my system is all whacked, which makes me tired, and also rashy. Now I walk around yawning and scratching my tummy/hip/thigh. Fun fun fun

Maybe it's because I have been trying to keep Koben from peeing on the floor all day while he is wandering around in his Thomas the train underpants. (no, he is not close to being potty trained yet.) I am grateful we no longer have carpet.

Maybe it's because I haven't excercised in 6 days. That makes me tired.

Maybe it's because I never have two days off in a row, and sometimes you really just need two days to recupe.

Maybe I am just depressed. Nah, I don't feel depressed, just a littel ho hum.

Maybe it's because I just haven't had an alone day in awhile. As a mother, am I truly entitled to one? I really just crave them. I have days where I wish I could call in sick, send the kids to school/daycare and sit on the couch watching bad, boring television and drinking cocoa. Or watching a cabinet full of chick flicks. I have a serious Steel Magnolias/Fried Green Tomatoes/ Man in the Moon/ Ya-Ya Sisterhood need that needs to be met.

Either which way, I think I will survive.

That is, if Koben kindly picks up all the legos in the living room. Otherwise mommy goes ballistic.

Here are Chloe's vocab words for this week. she has to take her make up test tomorrow since she had a dentist appt. Friday and missed the test. I got an email from the teacher saying 8 out of 18 kids got the spelling part right, and 5 out of the 18 got the vocab part right. I had her take another test here at home, and she got the vocab correct, but missed one spelling word. She could go to school and miss several. I remember doing that when I was little. You know you totally have it, but when it comes time to take the test, you have issues.

I have to be honest. I missed importune. To beg urgently. I had it confused with Inoportune. Gee, does this mean I won't pass the fourth grade?
I liked fourth grade ok. I had Mr. Schalock. He was a great sport. I told everyone he was my dad. =) Of course, Bryan had him to, so he knew all about us Schlack kids. Of course, he knew me quite well, since my punishment for constantly talking in class while I was in Second grade, was being sent to Mr. Schalock's class to sit quietly and get teased by the nine year olds. So, of course when I entered his class, he already knew I was trouble. I had dorky, short permed hair when I was nine, and since there was a boy named Moe in my class, and a girl named Laree that he called Larry, you can guess which "stooge" I was.

Good times, good times.

Beats "jonah the whale" any day.
Ugh, I hated Elementary school.
