Surefire Signs that the Day is a Wash

  • Your pile of used kleenex is almost as high as the laundry pile
  • You reread the grocery list you just made and realize that most items are written down at least twice
  • You think your friend keeps saying two-thirty instead of tooth fairy and she can't understand why you keep correcting her and saying, "No, two-twenty NOT two-thirty."  (By the way, I completely deny that it was me who kept sneezing through the 2:20 showing of Tooth Fairy on Monday.)
  • You keep scolding the kids for dozing off during family home evening, then catch yourself snoring three minutes later.
  • You realize after eating 2/3 of a 1000 calorie chipotle burrito that it tastes no different than a bowl of plain rice to you.
  • You try to blog and end up writing a long, rambling post that makes no sense (don't look for it, it's already deleted and you'd know what I was talking about if you'd read it)
  • Your sister asks you to preview her blog post, which is a job you normally love, and you decline because it would require moving five feet to get your laptop.
  • You go to take your temperature and realize after noticing the thermometer tastes a lot like Old Spice deodorant that you've grabbed the wrong thermometer.
  • You find that while trying to write a humorous post making light of your germ du jour, that you've come off  sounding like the whiny toddler du jour.  (forgib me pwees)

Wednesday morning update:  I'm up before the crack of dawn to get Spencer off to his first day back to seminary since Snowmagddon hit and I already feel much, much better than I have the last couple of days.  I attribute the quick recovery to the fact that my family has taken very good care of me the last few days--cooking dinner, going grocery shopping (and not buying double of everything), and running errands for me.   Thank you to my awesome family!
