Totally Random Tuesday post

Hey all, happy Tuesday! I dunno about you, but it already feels like it should be at least Wednesday. But, alas, it's not.

I have some random things to blog about today so forgive the "all-over-the-place" nature of this post! Let's get to it:

Why is the weather forecast for DC, yet again, another week with rain in the forecast for EVERY day? No bueno. It's hard enough to get up in the mornings now that the sun isn't up when I get up, but add rain to the mix and it's just that overwhelming blah, "I-want-to-put-on-my-PJs-and-stay-in-bed-all-day" feeling. I'll try and snap out of it!


 I'm waiting to hear news about my grandpa. He has been having lots of medical issues over the past year or so, but I got a call from my mom the other night saying that he had an infection and despite being on antibiotics, still had a fever. Apparently the people at the care facility were calling my aunt to come in yesterday to talk about "options." Although this isn't a HUGE surprise, it's really sad, and preparing for someone to leave you is heartbreaking. Luckily my mom seems to be doing ok, but I have a feeling the next few days are going to be tough.

On a happier note, I'm mailing off my gift to my new bloggie friend Rachel.We both participated in Meg's (at Life of Meg) Fall Frenzy gift exchange. It was a super cute idea, and a fun challenge to try and find some things based on a bit of information for someone who you don't know at all. But, how fun is it to get a package in the mail with goodies in it? I'm hoping that Rachel will like the things that I picked out for her! (The picture to the right is not a picture of what I bought for you, Rachel, don't worry! haha)

It still amuses me how one little word can make a bunch of 3rd graders (and probably older) crack up laughing. I literally thought this one boy yesterday had said something about "fart"....I figured he didn't actually say it, but I asked him if that's what he said anyway (mainly because I had a feeling it would be funny and I needed a laugh). He cracked up laughing....MAJOR case of the giggles, and the girl I see him with did too.So, the three of us sat in my office, giggling together for a few minutes. Sometimes a good laugh is what you need to make it through the rest of the day.

Am I the only grown-up who wants to see a Dolphin Tale? I know it's a kid's movie, but 1) I'm obsessed with dolphins (love love love them!), 2) Morgan Freeman is in it, and Morgan Freeman is the ISH! and 3) it's a feel-good story! What's not to like about that? I have gotten more crap from my friends for wanting to go see this movie, and I don't get it. I also don't really care cuz I'm going to see it anyway, but, really....it looks so cute! Am I the only one? (If I am, please don't respond and make fun of me like my friends have...lol)


Alright, that's it for now. I hope you enjoyed the randomness of this post and are able to make it through your Tuesdays! Catch ya on the flip side!
