Cranky!

It's December and I'm cranky!

Cranky because the antibiotics haven't made me feel completely better yet.

Cranky because one of my nearest and dearest friends is moving just after Christmas and it hurts to talk to her and I can't go see her since I can't chance getting her or her kids (who I'm going to miss something fierce too) sick since they need to spend time with her dad who is dealing with Chemo.

Cranky because, have I mentioned it hurts to talk but other than that I'm perfectly fine to teach and I would rather be at school than at home catching glimpses of daytime TV! It's simply too much work to NOT be here.

Cranky, because I've realized how long I've neglected my poor blog once again - that has to change with the different things going on in life and the amazing yummy stuff coming out of my kitchen... So much to share!

Cranky because December is so much fun with everything going on - but I have so much to get done! (Along with everyone else out there...)

Cranky because I really, really want to go for a run...

And, I'm cranky because I'm cranky! I hate being cranky! It's annoying, darn it!

But, now that I've vented a bit and had some tea, I'm feeling a bit better. Life is pretty good at the moment (Well, aside from the Schlosser-Goode family moving, but that just means that I'm going to have to get to know the various routes to Nashville, right?) and I need to remember that. I am so lucky in so many ways with my family and friends, a great guy in my life, a job that I love (aside from when I'm cranky), my health (most of the time), two adorable furballs, a good group of kids on my speech team, somre more holiday shopping done, and so much more...

YAY for getting rid of most of the crankiness!!!! Hopefully it stays that way!

Stay tuned for recipes for some of the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever made and homemade tomato soup with a kick! Hopefully I can get those up this week :)
