Migraines should be illegal

I have a migraine to beat all. Today is one of those days where I do wish I had a real job, because then I could go home sick and have someone else watch my kids for me. I am not a great mother when these hit--I just can't be. Days like this are all about non-stop Hello Kitty movies and letting them be as messy as they want. I'm sitting here in sunglasses so that my eyes don't explode.

I am definitely in a funk again. I don't know what my deal is... it's been sunny and everything. I think the stress of all of it is finally starting to really get to me. We are so damn broke. No jobs on the horizon. I've actually gotten a few leads from LinkedIn, from a Women Venture group. Nothing great yet, but it's another good resource. I honestly don't know what I will do. I have a pretty good idea that it's going to be (ugh) retail.

I got interviewed today by the Pioneer Press on my shopping habits for Black Friday. Kind of funny--I follow one of their writers on Facebook, made a comment, and she sent me a message asking if she could interview me. I'll let you know if/when it gets published.

My head is pounding. I have the new kitty on my lap, though, so it helps a little.

I suppose I should do something with this day. My only saving grace is that there is a roast in the crock pot--as long as there is meat cooking, Blake will forgive me for anything.

How can life be so damn wonderful and so damn hard all at the same effing time? WHY??

Why do I have so many questions? Why is the Hello Kitty DVD stuck again? Where are Cedar's pants (no, not potty trained yet--totally regressed)?
