I have had a rotten day.  First Kennedy has been a little touchy today crying at the drop of the hat and even throwing herself on the floor from time to time.  Kennedy is cutting more molars which is making her diapers a little nasty.  I waited all morning on a plummer who charged me $50 to tell me he couldn’t tell me what was wrong without cutting my ceiling open which would cost me $250 on top of the cost to fix whatever the problem may be.  Then Kennedy spilt a whole cup of milk all over the floor.  Brand new strawberry milk.  Very sticky (although Potter was a happy poodle as I dashed for the mop.)  An Thursday is back to work day.  I am so sad and weepy just thinking about it.  So I decided that being the optomist that I am I am going to write 34 things I have to be happy about (34 hours until I am back at work.)
