This Is Where I Want To Be...

This is where my friend Brittany is right now. Why do I have to be in Texas when she gets to be in Hawaii? Britt took this picture and emailed it to me. I am SO jealous. She probably gets to go to Hawaii because she isn't spending her money on stupid stuff like speeding tickets...
Calgon...take me away.

I got to spend the afternoon in court. Yea me. To make a long story short, I got a speeding ticket that the officer messed up on when he wrote it. Instead of just being able to get it fixed, I had to actually go to court...or pay for a citation that was not valid. Nice. Anyway, my court appointment was at 1:00 this afternoon, and I finally got to see the judge and city prosecutor at 3:30!!! Blah! Needless to say, I still had to pay for the speeding part of my ticket, but the other part was dismissed. Oh yeah, I had all 3 kids with me too. NIGHTMARE. All 3 of them were angels. Seriously. God has blessed me beyond belief with amazing kids. I just felt so bad that they literally couldn't make a peep or I could be held in contempt. Thank God for Lori! She came and rescued my kids just in the nick of time. Love her to pieces. My hero! As Faith would say, "Lori saved the day!!!"

After court, Lori and I took the kids to McDonald's to play since they were so well behaved at the courthouse. I spilled 2 drinks that were completely full in the process of walking into the play area. Coordinated? Apparently not. This was pretty much the cherry on the sundae.

Today is not the day for me. I think I want to go to bed right now. Try again tomorrow.
Tomorrow will be better. Faith starts gymnastics tomorrow, and I can't wait. She is super excited and already knows how to do quite a bit. Tomorrow! Tomorrow! Tomorrow will be better. I just know it!
