Monday, Monday.....so good to me.....

Ahhh....Monday......a fresh start to the week.....a new beginning......shiny new horizons to explore and the potential to......


ugh....who am I kidding? Sometimes, Mondays are SO hard to be cheery about....ya know?

Don't get me wrong....today was actually a pretty good day. I mean...I did have a little bit of a "situation" if you will....that involved me turning on a light (gosh, what was I thinking?) and all of a sudden, I hear a LOUD POP, and see sparks and a small flame burst overhead.....followed by a smattering of shards of broken bulb.....ahhhh.......Monday.......nothing like open flames and shattered glass to get your day started......OH, and did I mention that it subsequently blew a fuse and therefore.....no power?

Yep....

hmmph.....

Monday....................umm..yeah...I'm just gonna go back to sleep.....

After searching for my breaker box for about an hour with a flashlight (two stumped toes later...stop chuckling......), I realized that I had hung my beautiful green iron mirror over it, in order to "hide" such a hideous eyesore.......guess it would have been helpful to remember that little tidbit......

So, remember how I'm ALL about losing weight before my trip?? OH WAIT! I haven't even told you about all of that yet.......well, long story short (I'll tell the long version tomorrow) I am going to Cabo in May and want to lose about 20 pounds before then.....so, that gives me about 6 weeks to shed those pounds!!!

Well, after the hoopla today......let's just say that Ricardo from the pizza place down the street will be knocking on my door in about 10 minutes......

Happy Monday.... :P

**UPDATE: My cable also went out right after I posted this.....I was on the phone with the cable company for about 30 minutes...but, they finally got it working again....What a day...what a day..**

I had one of those days too, fighting off a cold my husband brought home from work last weekend, and after spending an hour on the phone w/ my new bff in tech support in India b/c my e-mail account's not letting me log in, finally decided to give rebooting everything a shot like they try to encourage you to do while you're on hold, which miraculously fixed it -- should have tried that little piece of advice sooner!

First of all....since I know you pretty well..you do NOT need to lose weight...and especially 20 pounds..You would be too puny. And I'm not just saying that.
