Today in bullets. Because I suck.

Things I have done today.
- blown my nose a million and one times.
- lamented the itchy, scratchy, painful skin under my nose.
- let my kids watch way too much TV while I lay on the couch waiting for some energy to miraculously appear out of nowhere.
- lamented the fact that the Charlotte's Web movie that we checked out was not the original movie, but the remake.
- lost over an hour of my day watching Charlotte's Web.
- blown my nose another million and one times.
- met a couple deadlines. Yay!
- cooked my husband and children a home cooked meal.
- realized that my baby will be 2 tomorrow.
- rushed both girls to Target at the end of the day to buy some presents for a certain almost 2-year-old.
- Panicked about how to make her birthday special despite a complete and utter lack of planning on my part.
- marveled at how lucky I am that my girls get along so well and love playing with each other so much.

Things I have note done today.
- bought lotion soft tissues for my poor irritated nose.
- met the rest of my deadlines. Boo!
- any laundry whatsoever.
- wrapped my daughter's presents.
- spent more than 3 minutes talking to my husband.
- replied to a bunch of important and time sensitive emails.
- spent nearly enough time cuddling and loving on my daughters.

Thing I will not be doing today.
- going to bed nice and early so that I can recover from this cold and make my baby's birthday super special.

Happy birthday to your baby girl!
Hope you're feeling better and that you all have a fabulous day!

Wow. You suck. JUST KIDDING! :)

Hey - at least you served a homecooked meal! I let my mother in law make our dinner.

I took her to The Ugly Truth yesterday. OMG TOTALLY inappropriate movie to being a mother in law to, in case you were wondering.

My baby girl (the older one, who is 11) gets braces today. I'm freaking out. I remember her growing her first tooth!

Feel better. You can't actually suck if you have so many friends. :)

Don't be so hard on yourself, you don't suck, you blow.

Happy birthday to your girl! And you don't suck :) That sounds like every single day of mine.

It sounds familiar to me too - don't beat yourself up over it. I hope you feel better soon, and I hope your baby girl has a happy birthday!
