Weather only a duck could love.

We woke up yesterday morning to rain. All day it rained. It was cold, damp and totally miserable. I knew it was going to be a miserable day when I tried to get out of bed and every joint said "I don't think so lady". I thought perhaps it was because I was overdue for a pain pill. Nope, it seems my joints had other ideas. Yesterday was one of those rare days (Thank God) where my pain pills and muscle relaxers don't work. We had to go to the store to pick up a med my doctor had prescribed and I found out that I don't want to go grocery shopping on a Saturday afternoon. The lines were packed...............well not really that bad. But when you are in extreme pain, even one person ahead of you makes the wait seem like forever. AND when we went to pick up a poster board for Sandy and her project (which she found out she needed on Thursday but didn't tell us until Friday evening) she informs us that she also needs notebooks to take notes with. This was the first we had heard about this. If she had told us this Thursday we could have made a side trip to Wal-Mart and gotten this far cheaper then we got it at Kroger. As it was we told her she had to wait on the notebooks until we get our checks on February 3. We keep telling this kid that if she needs supplies she needs to tell us when she realizes she needs them. Her excuse is "I wasn't thinking". Ya think!!!?
