Project 52: Week 9

This week's theme is black and white.

More snow. It just won't stop, people. It's pretty much all that happens here anymore. The first shot is a photo I took on our way to work yesterday (no, I wasn't driving). The other is from when we picked up Cam early from school the other day. Mom-of-the-year over here forgot his gloves, so J let him use his. If you also notice, he's really mad because we interrupted him watching Duck Tales at school. Life is hard at 5 years old. :)

Project 52: Week 8

Last week's theme is outtake.

Last week was not a good week for me. I came down with a nasty stomach bug at the end of the week that threw me all sorts of off for days. I don't recover like I used to from illness.

Here is an outtake from when I was attempting to take of the kids in the snow the other weekend. Our other cat Zebra happened to be on the deck and I snapped this of him.

This snow just won't go away around here. I am officially DONE with it. It is interfering with my life in all sorts of ways (Scentsy deliveries, plans with friends, etc.) I'm tired of canceling and rearranging stuff! Here's to spring coming soon!

Snow Day

Yesterday, Cam's school had a snow day. I had heard that he would be having school so I picked him up yesterday evening after work. I couldn't get a hold of his dad or grandma, so I had to stay home with him. It was probably for the best though, I think we both needed a day of rest.

We did puzzles.

 

We were silly.

We watched shows and movies (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and several Veggie Tales shows).

We even got a little crafty and I made this Cardinal for him. (Earlier in the week, M made a duck but Cam decided he wanted a Cardinal when he saw her bird.)

It was a good day. I always enjoy spending time with him, but also I really did need to work. It's such a struggle being a working mom. I was ahead on my bills and due to the snow now I probably won't be. I also feel guilty when I have to call in. I just have to step back and be thankful for the time we got together today and that maybe we both just needed it. We don't get many days together like this anymore.
