In the last 48 hours

I have taken every single child to some form of doctor
I have been barfed on twice
I have rearranged all the furniture in the house because HELLO! THEY ARE DELIVERING THE BEDS TOMORROW! and I have no place to put them
I have skyped four business meetings
Dropped four jars of baby banana food on my foot, having only two of them explode all over me
Not made any of the important phone calls I need to make, but have managed to update my facebook status at least four times.
Have made plenty of desserts in my stressed out state, and am now trolling for women who just gave birth to bring said desserts to
Spent three hours on the phone with some man in India trying to convince him that YES my computer is broken, that YES I do have a warranty, and that YES if he makes me restart my computer one more time, I will shove my barfing child in his chicken tikka masala.

But, all in all, life is just GRAND. I am trying to live positively, so let's list some positive things

Personal training no longer makes me wanna cry which means I must be getting stronger
The beds are coming tomorrow (thank you Black Friday) and so we will not all be sleeping in one twin bed anymore
I actually got through to someone in Israel and may (cross your fingers, knock on wood, kiss w Torah for me) be putting a down payment down on a not yet built house in a not yet built suburb of an already built city on the outskirts of a place well within the green line. Which means I could maybe make aliyah in like 15 years (ya know because Israelis build housing at the same speed the US government can finalize healthcare for all)
My BFF from college is coming next week for a few days! YAY!
I had occasion to wear my very "bossy" high heeled boots, and a push up bra to a meeting, and discovered that however wrong it is, everyone listened to me when I was two inches taller and a size or two more well endowed.
It is raining, not snowing, which I am going to take as a wonderful sign
My 5K time is down to 28 minutes. Happy day!
