Physically and emotionally.
To top it off, I already knew I was going to have to work even more tonight and had secretly dreamt of walking in the door, kids angelically waiting and the night just unfolding like a perfectly kept blanket.
Instead I got lip-service from the girl and a request for more money to be spent on something trivial from the boy. Not off to a good start.
We (thank you, God) somehow managed to rebound quite nicely, had a good dinner, cleaned the kitchen and I informed them I had to work...mom is sorry. It's how bills get paid, blah, blah, blah...they've heard this before.
So here I am on my bed...laptop on my, well, lap...working through a list of 2,200 properties for work and in walks Shelby with a sly grin on her face and hands me a little envelope.
God...JUST IN CASE I was too busy to thank you for all the good in my life today and kept complaining about the petty stuff I kept being hit with...please consider this a huge thank you for my healthy, thoughtful kids.
