D DAY

.....And I am not talking about the invasion of Normandy! Today was another one of those days that I am officially calling DISASTER DAY! The day started off pretty good and then quickly went to hell in a hand basket. I did my usual workout, came home and got us both ready to go to Gloucester. We stopped by Bay Properties and visited mama for a bit and it was there that it all started. Abigail didn't want to leave, we got in the car and she wanted to listen to the same Christmas song (yes, we're already listening to Christmas music :)) over and over. So needless to say once we got to A Hop Skip and a Stitch I was ready to get out of the car. She was pretty good in there with the exception of touching every single thing in the store after me telling her no less than a thousand times to look and don't touch. We walked over to Hallmark and after a few cards and two balloons we left there with her in my arms kicking and screaming. She cried the entire drive home and went into hysterics when we passed Lowe's and didn't stop. I've never known a child that loves a hardware store the way she does. Honestly at this point I think it was just something else for her to cry about. We got home and she took a good nap but woke up with the same disposition as when she went to sleep. She was playing with playdoh and ended up throwing every bit of it on the floor. I put her in time out and she cried for a bit and then just sat there for a while. Once I let her out she was good for the rest of the night. I am totally exhausted.

On a side note we had our propane tank filled today for our gas logs so looking forward to a cold wintry night so that we can fire that baby up. I love our fireplace but have been daydreaming about one like this.

We have our chiminea all ready with firewood piled up next to it but how wonderful would it be to someday have something like this?

A girl can dream, right? G'night ;)
