Gloomy

Today is an aweful, gray, and gloomy day. I apologize for my pessimism, I really do, but I just can't help it. I had to drive all the way down to Walmart this morning to buy eggs (because we've been out all weekend!) and muffin paper cups (what are those called anyway?). The roads were slushy and the parking lot was even slushier, I got that nasty gray slush all over the bottom of my jeans because they drag on the ground because I am so short. GRRR!

Even though it was 10:00 in the morning Wamart was still a zoo, and I detest crowds. I battled my way around the ginormous supercenter for 45 minutes to find what I needed, then stood in line for another 20 while stray children tried to climb in my cart, and when I finally got to the cash register....I realized...I never grabbed my wallet and put it in my purse!

Shopping attempt: foiled!

Then I drove all the way home grabbed my wallet, went to the Albertsons just up the street and payed 12 dollars more for the same items! The worst part of all of this is that it is raining, and the rain is melting all of the beautiful Christmas snow!
Oh Bother!

Later that day: I have mostly recovered from my earlier pitty party thanks to a papa murphey's Hawaiian pizza now in my fridge, warm fiber-one banana nut muffins, and the fact that the rain has turned to snow again. I apologize for earlier and I hope my gloominess didn't rain on anyone's parade!

Hey! I would say Papa Murphys pizza is a great way to brighten a day! And I hate going to walmart for that same reason! Grrr...I have to go tonight where it will probably be crazy because it is three days before christmas...oh well. We should get together soon!
