today i woke up to rain.
and a headache.
thankfully my headache went away after a large cup of coffee, an apple, and a promptly taken Aleve.
anyway, back to the rain.
on occasion i do love waking up to rain. the sound of rain is so something. and i also love (on occasion) falling asleep to rain. it can truly be like a sedative for me. i mean i don’t drop in the middle of a conversation and pass out with a curve of large Z’s floating out of my mouth. but i seem to get tired faster than normal within the beauty of raindrop sounds.
i took nugget to the grocery store today. in the middle of the aisle he grabbed my neck and gave me the sweetest, strong kiss. i call it his mafia kiss because he just takes it! like - get over here you, mwah! it’s pretty adorable.
then there was this lady in line behind us and nugget was playing his cutesy pie routine & she wouldn’t even glance at him. i am by no means paranoid. well, ok, that’s a lie. but what i mean is, i am not the sort to make something out of a nothing and this lady was something. how can you not even glance at a precious little toddler that’s about 17 inches from your face and is obviously trying to get your attention. what’s wrong with you!?
sorry.
maybe, just maybe, she was having a bad day. maybe she has a bad day everyday. but maybe, and here’s the kicker… maybe if she’d glance at adorable-care-free-sweet-as-pie kids once in while, well then maybe she’d feel a little better.
like i said, i woke up with a headache today, so….
have a lovely friday! (what’s left of it)

I know exactly what you mean! I don’t usually ‘fish’ for comments about my kids but when my son is saying hello to the lady behind us in the line at the supermarket and waving at her and she DELIBERATELY ignores him, it does bug me. How hard can it be to give a child a smile?!
thank you jacki! my take exactly
