It's the girl who did our family pictures. I am entering to win a free mini session with her. You can find her on facebook and become a fan and enter yourself!

Hello awkward

I've been pretty tired lately. You can tell because I become even MORE introverted, forgetful, anxious, and I throw plenty of ridiculous pity parties for myself. I just hope the last one isn't noticed because really I am better off than most people I know. One one particularly tiresome day, I took my sweet time bringing Cody home from preschool. I hung out for a bit to chat with his teacher (Brian's sister) since I had so much I needed to do at home so of course I didn't actually WANT to go home. Lucky for me the kids fell asleep on the way home and even stayed asleep once brought inside. FREEDOM! I say to myself is a whispered victory yell. I plop my butt down for a 2 minute break when I hear the sound of car doors closing. Oh ya, I was supposed to be home an HOUR ago so my visiting teachers could come and, well, visit. They sit down as I apologize for completely forgetting they were coming (again) and they explain that they drove by a few times until they saw my car. They visited the other ladies they were supposed to see in the meantime. They ask how I'm doing and if I am sleeping any yet, I complain that I am still getting up every 1 to 2 hours even though my daughter is ten months old.... They start to look a little uncomfortable sitting there but not really enough to acknowledge. I assume it's due to the mess. I had a pile of books and papers stacked on the lamp table by the couch that I had brought out of the bedroom so that I would actually sort through it. They seemed to be eyeing it. I know I'm a slob but like I said, I forgot they were coming! These ladies are actually great. They both have kids my age and older so it's like I get a few others with motherly advice. They hurried out in an effort to let me try to sleep since the kids were sleeping. Once they left I sat down again. Figured I'd start on the pile they were trying not to look at.

Then I saw it.

BAM! Right out in the open on top of all the papers was a single square pregnancy prevention item. Oh my gosh I was so embarrassed. Do I bring it up and make a joke out of it the next time I see them? Do I subtly explain that I was cleaning off my dresser and didn't realize how much 'stuff' I had on my dresser without actually mentioning the item itself? No, no... Cases like these are best left ignored. Besides, I ran out of time for thinking up any other solution as the crying began once again.
