Just today, after a week of running around in circles trying to accomplish 502 tasks, my housewife super powers seemed to be wanning and I felt like I coming down with a serious case of the "I've been running around in circles all week and think I caught a cold" disease.
Well, it might have had even more to do with the fact that while I was in town with some friends on Tuesday (town being 55 miles away - see I Am the Pioneering Woman) the driver's window on the Durango decided it was not going to roll back up. So, I drove the 55 mile trip home in 45 degree temperatures at 70 mph. By the time I got home I didn't have any hair left on the side of my head.
So anyway, I was feeling not so good this morning, and the always concerned Kaydn Rye said, "I think maybe you should go to the doctor, mom."
"No, I think I'll be fine. I just need you to not bother me for stuff today so I can get some rest," I said. Stuff meaning, "Mom, can I have a snack. Mom, can I have some water. Mom, can I have another snack. Mom, can you button my pants. Mom, can you carry my toys here and there and do this and do that."
He replied with, "Mom, you just need to listen to your heart, it will tell you that you need to go to the doctor."
I felt like breaking out in song, namely a Roxette song.

Oh, and the night of the mysterious window failure, Kaydn Rye decides he's got everything under control and says, "Don't worry about it mom. I'll take a look at it when we get home."
If only all of life's motor vehicle related problems could be solved by a four-year-old.

This line I kind of stole from some kid in the gas station while picking up my cappuccino so I wouldn't end up asleep in a cow pasture on the side of the road during my hour drive home from town. Some kid was looking at the tabloid magazines and happened to see a Jon & Kate Plus 8 headline that read "Jon and Kate's 5 million dollar divorce."
The kid is apparently quite a fan of Jon and Kate Plus 8 cause he was pretty disturbed by the headline. He said to his friend next to him, "Jon and Kate getting divorced?? Oh man. No way." He may just go on to become a marriage and family therapist some day.
