Today is Monday....Some Lessons Are Hard

So today I am sitting at the kitchen table posting on my blog while enjoying a venti peppermint mocha and banana chocolate chip coffee cake. I have one very stuffy nose and sore throat and seem to be starting on the upside of this, I am sure cold. The rain is falling and the dogs are settled in on the sofas. I have a job interview today at 10:00 a.m. I also am expecting the pest control man to come by any time now for the 8:00 a.m. appointment. I have also had very little sleep overnight due to my very stuffy nose. I'll spare the details. My son has also endured a sleepless night. His complaints are of a stomach ache and not being able to sleep. He and I watched the news and cartoons from about 2:30 a.m. on. He finally dozed off about 6:00 a.m. Sadly it was short loved because he had to go to school. I would love to let him stay home and rest his weary eyes but alas that is not how the world goes and better he learn now than to grow up an irresponsible adult. There is mild suspicion that he may have encountered a Monster energy drink yesterday. I do not know this as fact. He grumbled and generally let me know being at home on this rainy day would be best. I agreed and told him I understood. I have my own responsibilities today- including 3 appointments -that must be met today. And oh how I would rather just curl up and rest today..... Welome to Life My Precious Son.
