If you haven't read previous post, Thankful, you might want to start there to put this into context.
After having such warm, fuzzy, blogged-about thankful feelings this afternoon, I thought I should give an update. Lest anyone think that I have somehow got it all together, or that being a pastor's wife and mother of 2 incredibly beautiful kids is always "thank-filled", let me burst the bubble.
Although I truly am incredible thankful for both of my kids and their creative little minds (which is sometimes displayed in artwork), I am also incredibly thankful for my beautiful WHITE kitchen table. The combination of the 2 is not something I am too thankful for. I am about to scrub my table (and this is not the first time) with alcohol wipes in an attempt to get black sharpie off.
And in the midst of that, washing dishes (don't you love opening the dishwasher to find that you fully loaded it yesterday but forgot to run it? and now you have a sink full of more dishes that need to go in???), and cooking dinner- I discovered once again that I am losing my mind. I actually just found myself looking in the clothes dryer for a pound of frozen ground beef. I guess the one piece of sanity in that is that I didn't find any beef there.

Found my keys in the fridge once, don't know what led me even look there and yet it seemed perfectly logical after scanning all the usual places. I'm just Thankful that these moments of lost sanity are just moments, and not all the time.
I am thankful that I am not the only one who goes through the little "alzheimers moments" :)
I have white countertops that I am constantly having to clean...my next house is going to have a dark colored granite!!
I laughed out loud at the meat in the dryer hunt... I truly am sorry for your insanity, not really, cause I am insane, too!! Let's go to the looney bin together!!! We've been needing to spend some time together. Hey, my motto... "you either laugh or cry!!" let's laugh!
Yay - always glad to learn another mom is actually human! Of course, you are still super mom compared to me, because I probably would not have washed the dishes. I would have eaten on the saucers or something in order to avoid it and ran them in the next dishwasher load. Or worse, I would have bribed Jim to wash them. :)
