the clock is ticking...

Dear Trader Joe's,

Despite the fact you have defied all logic by choosing to open your first Houston-area store in The Woodlands, I am still eagerly anticipating the grand opening.  Fortunately, I have recently been to Omaha and was able to stock up on essentials such as Dark Chocolate Almonds (with Sea Salt & Turbinado Sugar) and Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups.  However, my supply is limited.  I respectfully request that you at least post an anticipated opening date for the new store, so I can ration myself and have a chance of making my stash last until the new store opens.

Don't make me move to Omaha just to get some Raspberry Lime Sparkling Mineral Water.

Sincerely,
I'll Take One of Everything

Somedays, it's just hard.

I realize, in the grand scheme of things, I have very little to complain about.  But on those days when the boys have reached new heights of boy-ness, and on the days when being a parent comes before doing the one thing that I want to do, it's hard.

So we'll just take a deep breath, knowing March cannot continue to be terrible since it is birthday month, and move on to the next thing. 

After all, what else is there to do?  :)
