i'm wearing my grumpy pants

because i want to.

over the break i've done a lot of cleaning, a lot of cooking, a lot of relaxing, and a lot of calling people to make plans. unfortunately, i haven't made plans with many people. all of the plans i had made fell through. so i'm wearing my grumpy pants.

the other day was a beautiful day to hang around the house and get some work done, but i had made plans to meet a friend in chapel hill, so i drove all the way to chapel hill... and she didn't show. she was very apologetic, but it kind of killed the day. i hung out with my mom for a while, and then came back to raleigh. andrew got off work, and we went to the horse complex to watch a show... until i got all depressed about how long it's been since i've ridden and how long it'll probably be till i can afford to ride again. so i'm wearing my grumpy pants.

i tried to make a really cool dinner. it went well except the piece de resistance, the parsnips. ::insert dramatic music here:: do i know how to make parsnips? no but i figured i could whip something up nonetheless, so i asked jessi how her dad makes them. he just seasons them and puts them in with a roast, so i did that, and they were inedible. so i'm wearing my grumpy pants.

then, i was supposed to go to sc to visit my new baby cousin, but he wasn't doing well, turns out he had a reaction to when they (ahem) snip-snippied his you-know-what, and he's fine now, which is awesome (thanks for the prayers). BUT that also cancelled my plans to go down for a visit. so i'm wearing my grumpy pants.

and then to top it all off, today was an amazing, wonderfully beautiful saturday, but instead of enjoying it with my husband like i should have, he was at work. SO I'M WEARING MY GRUMPY PANTS!

there was one good thing about the past few days... i got to spend lots of quality time with my lillie-bell. under my legs at caribou.
smiles!
