Monday

It's really Tuesday...but I'm still up so I'm posting about Monday. It's definately been you're typical Monday. We woke up to a booming thunderstorm here this morning.....then pretty much a lot of rain and dreariness for much of the day, although, I do try to see the glass as half full, so on the upside, it wasn't cold!! Still not Spring-like temps, but I can deal with it. Now, tomorrow...I hear it's supposed to be about 70 degrees! Yes! But not to bring any negativity to the post (as I know it will) it isn't gonna be a great summer with all of the bugs that are surviving this winter! I really really hate it, but we DO need a good deep freeze or we'll need mosquito nets this summer. Well, maybe nothing as drastic as that, but we WILL need major amounts of bug spray.

We got a late start on our schooling due my laziness today...LOL. Actually, I wasn't being lazy, I just feel that way when I'm still in my jammies at noon, even though I've been using the past couple of hours constructively.....paying bills that is. I COULD have been lazy though...my house was all nice and clean because it was cleaned over the weekend for Makayla's birthday. Everything but MY own bedroom (I know, it's OUR bedroom, but it's all flowery and stuff because I painted it in Spring colors so I'd always have a 'happy' place to go to). Yep, I'm one of those SADD sufferers that can barely see the light (SPRING) at the end of the tunnel (WINTER) and I get bogged down no matter how many times I tell myself "nope, not this winter, I'm gonna get busy, and stay active so the winter doldrums don't set in on ME". It hasn't even been a bad winter and it still set in. Anyhow, I consider my house warm and cozy (I call my style of decorating 'clean country') but my bedroom is Springy and Airy and Light with it's Yellow and Spring green walls, Donna Dewberry border, and the mural I handpainted in the Donna Dewberry style (it's a scene of a blue sky, flowers bordering a white picket fence, and a big tree with a tree swing, and birdhouses). Just a place where I can go and it's Spring ALL YEAR LONG!! At any rate, I needed to dust the room, and vacuum some, so I did that at 10 o'clock last night. :o)
