And here's why:
He-who-can-swim-by-himself wanted to go outside at oh-dark-and-cold-thirty this morning. My request to "wait until it warms up a wee bit" went over like a lead balloon. It was so freakin cold out there that I put on snow pants, despite the clearly evident lack of snow. "For snowshoeing and skiing!" the tag on my pants enthusiastically tells me, "Oh no," I sheepishly tell the pants, "We're just going outside. And, umm, it's cold. No, no. There's no snow."

I had to start next week's grocery list today,despite the fact that we just went shopping yesterday. Dude, who did such a bang-up job on the grocery list yesterday? Alas, me.

A cheery email from the library informs me the much-anticipated and long-awaited book that I haven't even opened is due back in two days and is not renewable because it has been requested by another patron. Leave me alone, mystery patron. Stop stalking my request list.

Chilled to the bone (despite the snow pants) I break out the duo at naptime to make butternut squash soup and bread. Sadly, when I break out the butternut squash - it is slimy, gross and bespeckled with mold. Chicken soup, anyone?

I just finished giving the boys a bath, and while we were getting cleaned up, I kept smelling this yucky odor. I assumed it was dinner/milk remnant on some one's shirt, but once I was all alone I noticed it was still lingering. Cautiously, I sniffed my own shirt - bingo. Someone was obviously teething on my shoulder with a stinky baby mouth.

Just another day in mommy land.
I must have the same patron trying to get my books. I took out "The Help" recently and I know I won't get it done by the due date. That patron may have to wait!
