my right now: whew!

i just realized i've done a lot of stuff in the past few hours....

1. went to wal-mart

2. made dinner

3. researched the 60s with spencer

4. created a chain from 100 paper clips with colby

5. washed the dishes

6. took out the trash

7. washed a load of laundry

and now it's almost time for daily bible reading with the varmints and then time to put them to bed! then i can watch the first hollywood week episode of american idol!!!! as soon as that's over i'm going to bed so i can get a few hours of sleep before the snore monster attacks! i've spent the last 3 nights on the couch because of daryl's snoring!! i don't move to the couch until 2 or 3 a.m. when it really gets bad, but then i have trouble going back to sleep AND the couch is nowhere near as comfortable as my nice, warm bed! it's a good thing i love him and i'm such a nice person!

when i was waking colby up for school this morning, i was laying beside him (he had taken my place in my bed sometime after i moved out) and he said in his sweet little tired voice, "mom, can't we just skip school today?"

"what we would do all day?" i asked.

"just stay here in bed and snuggle," he mumbled.

trust me, it was a very tempting offer!

my picture of the day is of a t-shirt one of my students was wearing. it's funny because he wore the same shirt yesterday, and i commented on it and said i wanted to take a picture of it. he could not understand why i wanted one, so i tried to explain that i just like to take pictures of random things that make me smile. he said i could take a picture for $5 dollars! ha! no deal! so he kept bugging me all day about why i wanted a picture of his shirt! then he showed up this morning wearing it again!!!! one of the other kids started teasing him about wearing it for 2 days in a row so i asked him if he wore it again so i would take a picture of it, and he just smiled and said yes!!! it's not that great of a shirt, but i thought it deserved the photo of the day!
