What a YUCK day today.  Just yuck.  Yesterday, I had a girl's day out with my mom.  We do this about twice a year.  We go to lunch together and browse the stores, etc.  Since we had just gotten our tax refund, my husband gave me a certain amount of money that I could spend "just for fun."  That was a rare treat.  We went to a clothing store that sells everything for $5.  They are clothes that are from Sears, JCPenney's, etc., and out of season, so they are nice clothes.  The only catch is that they don't have a fitting room.  Out of the four items I purchased yesterday, only one thing fit.  So, I'll be making another trip back this week to exchange what didn't fit.  We also stopped at a scrapbooking store and spent an hour or so browsing around.  It was so fun.  I also got some stickers and paper to use. 

Oh... but I was writing about today, huh?  Monday.  Well, I'm getting to that.  After our shopping, we went to Cold Stone for some ice cream.  Well, I've been really good eating wise lately, and I can't remember the last time I had some *real* ice cream.  So,  yesterday I splurged and got their "Peanut Butter Cup Perfection" creation.  Oh yum.  It was so good. 

However, I think today I was crashing from the sugar high or something.  I woke up just feeling lousy and rotten and plain 'ol grumpy.  I sat and prayed longer than normal this morning, too, because I could just feel it in me that I wasn't up to being a mommy today.  And the weather didn't help either - it was cold, cloudy, and dreary all day.  By mid-afternoon I realized that more than likely it may be a reaction from the amount of chocolate ice cream I consumed yesterday!  It almost felt like withdrawals.  I don't have anything tempting in the house to eat, but I really wanted something... and not having access to it just made me even more grumpy.

School was a struggle and I just didn't have the energy today to deal with life.  Ever feel like that?
