Wordless Wednesday

In case you have noticed, my posts have been more like picture pages lately instead of bloggy stuff. You know why?  Lately I have been doing so many things that my thoughts don't even want to come out. That's right, they are hiding....from the chaos around me, hiding from my 12 year old son who feels like summer vacation should be fully embracing him and he doesn't have to lift a finger around the house, from a weekly commitment I made, hiding from me stretching myself too thin, mainly...so then I just end up amusing people with pictures. Yeah, that's what it is.
I know many people that blog and do this Wordless Wednesday, well let me tell you something, dammit, my Wednesday was far from wordless. I wonder what a damn Wordless Wednesday would be like. I know, it's just a term where you post a photo and no words about it, but it just got me thinking, I guess.

Let me tell you about MY Wednesday. It started off at 6:30am. Why so early? My husband likes to give our little beauty a kiss before he leaves. It must be a loud kiss because I hear it on the monitor, then it wakes her up within 10 minutes and I hear her making tiny grunting sounds. But, you know what? It's not that "the alarm is going off and I need to be on my way to the office" sound, no, it is the most adorable little grunt and I just can't wait to burst in with my silly "HULLO?!" voice. I love that. She hears the door creaking open and looks up at it, then hears my "hullo" and face plants into the mattress with joy. That has to be one of the top 10 Mommy moments.HANDS DOWN.
Anyway, back to my point, I also had to get my 12 year old up at 8am,[JOY.not.] so he could come with me to the hair salon and keep an eye on Madeline. So, who has/had a 12 year old? Raise your hand. Anyone? [And Please tell me it's not just mine..PLEASE?]. It's not fun....especially on summer break. Yeah, on summer break, they act like YOU [and summer] owe them something. "What? I have to get up at an ungodly hour like 8am?". THAT right there just sends me through the roof. I REALLY wish I could be one of those understanding Moms......but I can't. GET the heck UP, SON....or it's not going to be pretty.
Yeah, so, got Josh up. Fed Madeline cereal for the first time. She loved it.

Then, it was off to get my hair highlighted. I get there and sit right down [with my stroller next to me], ready for that bleach to be slapped on my head, send Josh for some breakfast to Dunkin.
Nope.
They were out of the Volume 40 needed for my hair and needed to run to the store. Fine. I sat there and occupied the sweet little babe while Josh got breakfast. Well, I don't know what happened to Josh, maybe he was just happy to get away, but he took forever getting breakfast and by the time he came back I was ready to go under the dryer...and he joined me....

.....while Madeline was sleeping. [He is a cutie though, besides his newly found attitude]
Then I had to take my husbands glasses back because he ruined the coating on them within 2 weeks. I had to give my whole "I used to be an optician" speech and finally they are going to replace them, no charge.
We probably went to 15 stores after that. Madeline sang [which sounds like screaming to people that don't know her] for a majority of the stores....even our "teenage fetish", Platos Closet. I don't care what any one says...I LOVE that shop. Oh yes, I barged right up in there with my stroller like 'get the heck out of my way, teens'.hehe. And I scored an adorable little dress.
I came home and made dinner. Then, provided transportation to Josh's daily practice. Dropped him off. Came home. Spent some husband time, then drank some wine. And here I am.
There's no way I could have made a Wordless Wednesday out of that...and you know what? I LOVE IT!!!
