silver linings

Gosh, I was being such a whiner today!  I hate it when the boys do it, but I do know where they get it from!!  Today could have been a really bad day...Freddy was feverish yesterday, I haven't been sleeping good, RJ is still recovering, I had to pull a tick off of Liam today, the van was giving me problems, bills, bills, bills...etc. 


I started to go my usual path of: I am terrible, I suck, blah blah...  Dennis had to come home to rescue me from the post office and then to help me with the car.  He gave me a funny look and said "well, try to have a good day."  I was driving to Usher Park to meet with our friends for playgroup.  A little to chilly for the beach, but the park area is really nice.  When we got there I still had a headache, the place was really crowded (Head Start picnic was also going on), and the twins were being grumps. 


I got out of the car, headed over to our group, let the boys out, and then got a hug from Meghan.  All better...


Seriously, everything was so much better then.  I still had a headache, but was able to ignore it so that me, and my iced coffee could climb the jungle gym with my boys.  They were having such a good time on the slides, swings, and climbing apparatus!!  I bonked my head many times while trying to be a kid and climb through everything with them.  It started to sprinkle, but Aarika with her bag of tricks produced a CD player which we took to the pavilion and played music and danced.  Once Liam and RJ had enough I packed everyone in (the car started in one try), and went home.


Even though I really didn't feel all that great today, and things seem to be coming down all around us; the boys and I got to have 2 hours of fun with our friends at the park.  In the end, it was a good day :)
