Change of plans

First night of Hanukkah happened to take precedence over my need to analyze my funk. 

Failure to plan for Hanukkah took precedence over sticking with the 30 for 30.  Sweatshirt, jeans and a baseball cap ... woo hoo!

And, times like this take precedence over everything. 

 

The Destroyer is trying her hand at remixing as well.  Swimmy diaper as a hat.  I think it could catch on.

Getting ready to turn it all back around

There was nothing particularly inspiring about my outfit today.  Black slacks, red sweater, black boots.  No accessories ... so no pictures either.  Switched into jeans and a sweatshirt and just played with my girls.  Much more inspiring for me :)  Well, minus having to deny the Destroyer her TV time as punishment for misbehaving at school today.  Teacher meeting on Thursday.  Yeah, I have *that* child right now.  Sigh.

Just returned from last-minute Hanukkah shopping at Kohl's (still refrained from purchasing anything for myself even though the shoes were just CALLING me) ... but after much more than I had anticipated spending, the bulk of the family is covered.  Seeing as how tomorrow night is the first night, I'm just thankful my girls are too young to realize their Mom flaked.

Bryan and his family celebrate Christmas.  So, I've got time to redeem myself.  Well, at least wrap the damn gifts.

Tomorrow, I'm planning on posting a sequence of photos from the past 10 years and a little blog about what I think is part of the reason for my funk. A way of closing a chapter.  Turning a page.  Getting "me" back.  Maybe getting it out of my head and in writing will help me to better tackle the problem.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful week.  It's well past my bed-time.  Nighty-night.
