I must admit something - I am very tired this week. With Greg out of town all week I've been doing the single parent duty and since Wednesday when Dakota got his contacts it has been a very trying end of the week. Dakota is a quitter. If he can't succeed at something right away - he quits. After Wednesday night's drama of trying to remove his contacts, he woke up Thursday morning ready to try to put them back in...that lasted all of 5 minutes. He decided when he couldn't get them in on his first attempt that he wasn't going to try anymore. *Sigh* It's been like this the last 3 days, morning and night...but each time he is getting better at putting them in and removing them. I just wish he would do it without all the drama. I'm exhausted and TIRED of encouraging him and ready for my husband to come home to help me deal with this. Can you hear my whiny voice??
Okay, now that I got that out of my system, that leads me up to my ho-hum Walgreen's shopping trip this evening. I dropped Dakota off at the church for a youth event and I had an hour to kill before I had to be somewhere. I wanted to use my $5/$20 coupons so off to Walgreen's I went.
