Aargh.

It's been a day of aggravations. Grant was up at 5 am. Again. For what seems like the 100th time in a row. Hubs reminded me as he was leaving that he was going out with his work buddies tonight (which means he's home after the kids are in bed). There was no parking at Granny's place so we had to park in the ditch. Literally. Emma left her listening ears at home when we went to have lunch with Granny. Grant flung more food than he ate all.day.long. Emma's loud voice during naptime woke Grant up after 40 minutes. I had to put the smack down on Emma not listening to me so we didn't go to the library today. I have a cut on my thumb that is right where it gets used all the time and it hurts. The soap bottle opened in the bag on the way home from Target and got everywhere. I found ants in the nursery. And all down the hallway. Grant is getting a cold and has been stirring and crying out hourly since he went to bed. I haven't wrapped a single Christmas gift.

The kids were in bed by 7pm. That is indicative of a day where working outside the home seems dreamy.

You know I already called you to see how you were after such a hard day, but I also wanted to let you know here that I am off till 1/3 if you want to get together for a playdate. =) Or maybe a mommy coffee date.

Cayenne pepper across where the ants come in will stop them, especially if it's relatively fresh (not been in your cupboard for 8 years). And if you're lucky the kids will taste some and therefore learn not to eat everything they see on the ground.
