Take some Mucinex already!

I've been hacking for days.  I do not like to take medicine unless I absolutely HAVE to.  Today I gave in and took not only Tylenol for my fever but some Mucinex as well. (Yummy, I know)  I woke up blessed with a snow day and the hope that today I would do something huge. I kick started the day with a breakfast I've never eaten...that should count for a second thing.  Gruyere cheese and leek crepe oven baked with an egg stealing the spotlight in the center.  It was delicious.  I had big plans though...some new crafting project, decorating idea, brilliant mommy moment...something.  Morning turned into afternoon which turned into "Better Hurry Up and Get Dressed Time" because the piano teacher was on his way.  Still no huge life-changing new thing.  The pressure began to build.  The guilt in letting myself and others down for my lack of inspiration.  By the end of the day I realized it was a nice snow day full of puzzles and good food, a happy Pop Pop and pup as well as smiles on the kids.  I also found some great new blogs to follow.  I could have easily stayed on the couch all day surrounded by tissues and mugs of tea.  As Moms we don't really get the day off  and I made the best of it and my incredibly irritating coughs.  It's not always inspiring, it's never easy and its seldom glamorous but Mucinex or not...it's life and I'll take it any which way it comes.
