A Bit Bummed Today...

*sigh*

It feels like one of those days today.

Or I should say, it is a good day with some of those moments in them.

For example, one of the older boys decided to gouge all over the very nice and polished dining room table while I was in the bathroom after lunch. It looks awful now. Needless to say, he's in a bit of trouble!!!

Or then there is the fact that we thought we'd be getting our tax stimulus via direct deposit here in the very nearby future. Nope. If you used your refund to pay your tax preparer, it will come by a paper check. So we wait for July. Not that we needed it for our budget this month (it is all earmarked to making a deeper dent in paying off our debt), but I'm bummed that I won't totally pay off another two or three accounts this month. I shouldn't complain - I have one ready to be destroyed and half of another one. Still a bit bummed, though.

But other than that, it has been a pretty good day. We have a new two year-old, Z. He's a cutie, but a handful! He can climb over everything, refuses to eat (though he did eat lunch today without throwing a tantrum at the table), no is his favorite word, and constantly chatters, but he's a good kid. On the great side, he is potty-trained and goes to bed and nap without a single problem (and stays dry!). X is incredible jealous, so she's been a bit cranky today.

Well, this is looking like another blog-and-run - I'm off to go do carpool.

Adios!
