An honest post....with a little humor ;)

I have NOT been a blessing to be around lately.  I don't know what it is, but I've just turned into a total grinch...and I don't even care. (and this is what I looked like after eating the whole box of truffles)   
 Everybody and everything is getting on my nerves and it shows.  Just ask Rich ;)  

Obviously the blizzard hasn't helped much, I'm SO not a winter person.    Last year at this time we had the Ukraine trip to look forward to and the anticipation of meeting Artiom....

I don't know.  I have always battled the blues, but it's particularily hard to shake lately.  I need something to look forward to.  I need to MOVE SOUTH :)

Seriously, I need to clean up my attitude whether I like it or not.  It's affecting the whole family.  I mean really, look at what it's done to little Toma.....!!!

  1. I feel awful about the truffles. I must admit, you looked much better before. If I had any idea, I would have never given them.

    I think I felt a bit like you today...pretty sure my kids did too, to some degree. Ironically, it was Joy Sunday in Advent. I was grouchy because of disobedient kids, Science Fair projects, a mess, Christmas cards need to get out, I'm not nearly finished with Christmas shopping, no tree up yet, sick kids and did I mention disobedient kids!!!

    If I thought the truffles would make you feel any better I would send another box.

  2. It's not much better here in Georgia; it's going to be 13 degrees tonight here! I hate winter too!

    Hey, I could use a box of truffles Gretchen! I just ate a bunch of Oreos and they didn't do the trick at all!

  5. It's beautiful and sunny here in NC and yes a bit chilly but it's sunny nonetheless. I could show you how to embrace winter. Heck, I'm only 2min. by car to the closest Starbucks and it would be my treat everytime we went. :) So, perhaps you and I could find a nice apartment because I'm certainly not going to ruin our new Utopia with children and husbands and pets. Let me know when I should start searching the ads. ha ha ha

  6. Hi Jodi,

    We live in Roswell, GA, about 20 minutes north of Atlanta. Great area, very kid friendly!
