Moving doesn't help with feelings you describe either. The stress of it all is eating at my kids. Having my husband gone during the weeks shows all my weaknesses as a parent. Thanks for giving a voice to how I'm feeling as well.
Thanks for the opportunity to meet Marcel. That was funny. The Gary Ceran story is beyond sad... amazing example of forgiveness.
I also didn't know about the cooking time for Creme Brulee... never tried making it before.
So did your house sell? Where are you going? No wonder I haven't had ants in awhile... been going to bed early.
ToOdLeS.
Haha - I love your logic circle that ends with not enough sleep = bugs. It does in my house too!

I was asking my husband why I've been so grouchy lately (minefield of a question, I know), and he said, maybe going to bed at 11 every night and getting up at 4 ? I hadn't even noticed my sleep deprivation, cuz I haven't had a good night's sleep in like a year. So I'm worthless, too. And moderately mean. Maybe what I need is creme brulee and a nap?
I invited some friends from upstate to come make salad :)
Literally ants are my Nemesis. I could go crazy (the kind you are committed for)trying to keep them out of my kitchen. I hear your pain.
I laughed so hard when Marcel said' From the tonenails of a man." I love how random it is.
I agree about weaknesses. I relate to you and Beeswax about the sleep deprivation issue. I realize that my attitude has been harsher lately, because I have to energy or motivation. I figure because life ebbs and flows, Peace will have it's turn soon... hopefully:)
I did not know about Marcel until today.....gues what I use as a bean bag chair...a raisin. HA!
I am sorry that life is sucky right now. Sleep and feel better.
I would come over and sweep out your ants if I were closer.
i love the video of the shell. how clever are alll the jokes! too funny.
i think i'm worthless too sometimes...tired. so tired.
but luckily- no ants yet.
i love your blog
ah. ants. we have them too. actually, they live here. we feed them crumbs.
i cried once when i realized i might be sleep deprived for the rest of my life. i hope i was wrong.
keep blogging though. you make all of us happy. that is a good adjective!
Oopsie! I knew about that time/temperature discrepancy with the Creme Brulee recipe, I just forgot until you mentioned it. Sorry. Glad you figured it out and hope it turned out yummy.
Omigoodness... your post was so useful to me today. I have a two month old, and a 2 year old... and a 5 and 7 year old... and I'm exhausted. We have fruit flies because I didn't get around to emptying the compost, and ants, and by toddler had dirty pj's today because the floor has not been swept. And I feel worthless because I can't seem to manage housecleaning and this new baby. It's really nice to read that it's actually lack of sleep causing bugs, not some fatal mothering flaw of mine. :)
I love you, weaknesses and all.
I was about to say I would like to trade weaknesses with you, but I am just starting to improve on mine, and that might be counterproductive.
I am glad you blogged, because Marcel was hilarious.
And, really, you can't be that bad, if you have learned to let the sweeping go a day or two or three and you are attempting creme brulee. (or however you spell that.)
When are we going to get together? We miss you guys. We love having true friends that love and accept us as is. Really, life doesn't get much sweeter than that.....hmmm...unless, those true friends, are learning to love and accept themselves even better than before...because they were pretty good even when they didn't know their weaknesses.
This is a very comprehensive list, thank you. Conan is awesome.
Callie, you rock. and why my dear, are you on Weight Watchers? Please tell me it's to "gain" and not to "loose".
And hey, if I make it to bed by 12 pm I'm feeling really good about myself...so I officially give you permission to cut yourself some slack.
miss ya!
I'm adopting (trying, and failing) the Weight Watchers frame of mind to teach myself not to eat so much sugar.
It doesn't work very well.
addiction is bad.
I found another moral to this list, or at least a tender mercy that came to me this morning: I am not the only one who is grumpy on fast Sunday. NO? Also, how am I supposed to teach 8 sunbeams at 3 in the afternoon on an empty stomach?
I am having sugar addiction problems as well. I broke up with sugar almost 3 weeks ago. I am an all or nothing person when it comes to stuff like that. It took me a long time to learn that. Please don't let my visiting teachers bring cookies!
I can't believe that just with a phone call i made to Dr.omohan, I got my ex
back to me within 48 hours interval. I had read some stuff about Dr.omohan
before i called him but i didn't know that all those stuff were so accurate
until i got my ex back, After getting my ex back i taught it wise to share
my testimony with every one on this website that Dr.omohan is a real and
powerful spell caster that rebuild any broken relationship or marriage with
love spell. Do feel free to Contact Dr.omohan via Call or What-App
