So, this was a fun week! By fun, of course, I mean ridiculously emotional, stressful to the point of spontaneously groaning, and that my children chose the wrong week to discover the power button on the TV, how to climb the recliner, and “the screaming stage”.

I had a pretty short list for March also known as BIRTHDAY month. (In case you missed any of the obnoxious posts last month.) The goal was simply: Do something for ME. So, I did. I had my hair cut and highlighted, I finally met one of my blog friends, Julie and painted…
