How’s your Thursday going so far? I have high hopes for today because my Wednesday started like this:
In addition to waking up grouchy, I had a ton of unfinished work due for my screenwriting class. I intended to finish it before noon, but that plan was a wash after we spent three hours in the doctor’s office to make sure Jackson didn’t have a broken foot. According to the boys, they were “strength training” in the basement Tuesday night when Jack threw a kick that missed the punching bag (and his brother) and hit a pole instead. The poor guy limped around all morning, so we decided to get it checked out. It turns out that his foot is not broken but is actually quite bruised.
The day went on to unravel when we got home and no one wanted to do his or her school work. We ate chocolate cake to make ourselves feel better.
That was Wednesday morning.
Then Wednesday afternoon arrived and things turned around. Happy Hour with church friends, a surprise dinner with Amy, and an A on my first short story made it all better. Plus, the forecasted snow never arrived and the sun is shining. It’s still cold, but I swear to goodness Spring is about have its way with Old Man Winter and I have ringside seats.
Are you gearing up for Mad Men like I am?
