The good news is, it's Friday.
It’s been one of those weeks.
The kind of week where everyone in the family has a cold and you’re all feeling a little bit cranky.
The kind where the cat throws up all over the kitchen.
And where you spill your coffee all over the counter. The one particular area of the counter where you dump all your crap everytime you come in the door. And your purse, your iPod, a copy of “The Voyage of the Dawn Treader” that you’ve had since you were 8, and a notebook containing all your handwritten notes for a bunch of articles that are due that very day, all get coffee on them.
The kind of week where you try to put lotion on your hands and instead you squirt it all over the front of your favorite shirt.
The kind where you step on the scale and are horrified by the number you see. When did *that* happen?
The kind where the kitchen sink clogs up.
And you have a major computer crash right before you are due to start a major work project.
The kind where your daughter wets the bed and you have to strip pee-soaked sheets off everything.
And the kind of week where you go into the garden to pick a tomato, and as you lean into the bushy plants you feel a spiderweb brush your head, and you run your fingers through your hair and pull it out, and then you go about your business and 20 minutes later you’re driving down the highway and you glance in the rearview mirror and there is a BIG FREAKING BROWN SPIDER sitting on top of your head.
Yes, that is the week I’ve had.

The spider part is my personal nightmare...and probably the way I will wreck my car someday.
Oh...but you know what will make this week BETTER???? A super pretty green coat.
I am so sorry, I hope it gets better.
Oh my word, I know everyone has those kinds of weeks but this sounds particularly difficult for some reason. Time to put the kids to bed and go to bed early yourself. I find that really helps for those kinds of weeks. It's similar to hitting a reset button.
Oh boy. That was *a week*. Hope this week is starting off better.
And the spider would freak.me.out.
I've had those weeks, all too many times. ♥
Hope this week is going better. :)
P.S. Ditto on the spider! Yikes!
