Do you like statistics?

If you are a statistics and numbers person like me, here are a few from the last two days here in our house:

104.3 = top thermometer reading of Grant’s temperature for the last two days.
4:30 = what time the thermometer reading occurred for the last two nights (a.m.)
6.2 = hours I have slept total in last 2 nights.
4= times I tried to sneak back into my own bed so I didn’t have to listen to stuffed-up, thumb-sucking Grant make both Homer and Maggie Simpson noises while I TRIED to drift into slumberland.
4 = times Grant came to my bed and asked me to come lay with him.
3= times in past two days Star Wars Episode III has aired in our basement for Grant.
1-2 = inches of FRESH STINKING SNOW ON THE GROUND THIS MORNING!!! Oh Spring, will you never reveal your face again? Why do you spite me so?
1 = cups of coffee spilt on new carpet by ME this morning. Can’t even blame a child and believe me, my crabby mommy powers are in FULL SWING ready to POUNCE!
0 = cups of coffee left in pot after Brian filled his to-go mug and left.
4 = people in this house
3 = people in this house affected by this high temp, sinus virus/flu epidemic thus far.
10 = fingers of remaining unaffected person (me) crossed praying I do not get this bug.
-1 = days remaining until last gallon of milk expires
7 = cups of milk my family goes through each day
1 = babysitters and nights out with husband I have to cancel due to sick child.

KEEP BELIEVING

  11. Angie, I hope it's getting better by now. Bless your heart. Winter sucks, illness sucks. I'm so sorry, friend. Please take a drive alone if you can...go to Starbucks and get a Venti Latte...enjoy yourself for at least a little while.
    Much love.
