I know, I know.
I said I would be back on Wednesday with a phenomenal giveaway from Plush Rugs and here it Friday and still no giveaway.
To say, “It’s been one of THOSE weeks” sounds so cliche but seriously, IT’S BEEN ONE OF THOSE WEEKS!
The kind of week where you think it can’t get any worse.
3 kids + 2 parents ALL with coughs and colds.
Then…
3 kids + 2 parents ALL contract the stomach flu.
Just when we come up for a breath…
The youngest kiddlet gets his tooth knocked out playing with his brothers (total freak accident).
To make matters worse…
The Mr. decides to pass out while administering first aid.
It gets better but I’ll stop there…
I think we have “those kind of weeks” to keep us in check. They’re tests.
Unfortunately, I’m afraid that all those inspirational quotes I have pinned about having a good attitude and long suffering and patience didn’t cross my mind once this week.
Nope.
I pretty much failed at handling all pressure-cooker situations with grace.
But, it’s all good.
My wise dad always tells me…
So there you have it. Bring it on life…what else you got?!
(No, no. He, he! Just kidding. I’ve had my fill. No more. That’s it. I’m good).
While you’re contemplating that, head on over to Plush Rugs and see what floor eye candy they have in stock. Giveaway coming at ya next week.
For Real This Time!
Happy weekend!
Hey there! I’m Michelle; I’m an Passionate DIY’er and in constant pursuit of how to bring beauty to my house full of men (3 boys + 1 hubby). Stick around and see what I’ve got up my hard-working sleaves!
I would take childbirth over the stomach flu any day. At least with childbirth, there is an end in sight and, as an added bonus, you get a baby out of the deal. Here’s to hoping next week is a better one for you!
That is hillarious! I so know the feeling. Stomach flu you never know what you’re gonna get. 🙂
I hear you LOUD and clear! We’ve had a stomach bug running through our house for the last two weeks. As soon as it leaves one person, it takes over the next. It finally got our last child this morning. So, I’m (hopefully) only looking at four to six more days until I can recoup our normal daily existence! Here’s to better days ahead!
Oh my, you poor thing. Ours didn’t last quite as long as yours. That would be horrid! Here’s to better days ahead indeed! Best to you my friend!
Glad you all are on the up and up. Just a big thanks to all the posts that you have done and the great inspiration.
That us a lot to have to deal with! Poor thing! Hope this next week is better for you!
I am coming over from Eclectic Home Tour – wow! Your before and afters are amazing in what you had to what you have! Love it! Someday, we are going to redo our farmhouse and get rid of the funky cabinets and dated stuff! What inspiration from your reno…I keep trying to convince my husband to do it before we move there so we don’t have to live in it. I am now following you.

Welcome Cecilia! Thanks for coming to visit. It would be a dream to redo a farmhouse! Send me a plane ticket, I’m there! 🙂
