Have You Ever Had One Of Those Weeks?




I work evenings so my hubby can watch the girls and Iam covering for a friend and doing my work also this week since she will be covering for me next week while Tom is in Virginia tdy.So Iam not getting anytime with my hubby before he leaves and our air conditioner is on the fritz so the butter is melting on the counter.lol and I had a migraine today.I have to work Saturday night then get up Mother's Day at 2:30am to get the girls in the van and drive 2 hours to the airport to drop off my hubby for his flight. This Mother's Day would have been my Mother's 64th birthday but she passed away 4 years ago so I have been sad.We are Airforce and they seem to want to send my husband tdy on the holidays so he will be gone a week then back a week then I will have to do the 2:30am drive 2 hours to airport thing again on Memorial Day also then he will be back May 30th.I do however have progress on my fetching gloves so there are pictures:)
