Last week was spent feeling very drained. It wasn't that I was sleepy tired but rather I felt like all energy had been sucked out of me. It was hard to do simple things. Today I am feeling better just sleepy tired since Henry decided to get up early this morning then woke his sister. I kept dosing off in the chair and every time I was just about asleep Henry would wake me. What a good torture.

I tried to be a good mommy and take the kids to story time at the library. It is sunny today although very windy and I just wanted to get them outside. Snow is melting like crazy! By the time we got into the van it was after 11am. No parking at the library. Had to park a bit away and hoof it over. Got to the children's room at 20 after. The place was packed. My kids could not get through the mothers sitting, laying, squatting on the floor. Not just mothers but their babies too. Sprawled all over the floor! You could not walk through the room without stepping on babies or their mothers. And no one moved to let two little kids through!!!! I was ready to just stomp on them...babies too. Take care of your kids people!!! Irene got away from me and then Henry announced he had to pee. So I pushed through moms, babies, chairs etc. to get Roo. Again no one doing a thing to help. Arrrggggg.

I have to say here that last fall the library hired a young lady to be the new children's librarian. She is nice, educated...fine. A group of mothers got mad over this because they still wanted the other lady to do story time....so they quit coming. Fine by me!!! I couldn't stand that group. They all had kids a little older than mine so they had been coming longer. They seemed to think story time belonged to them and were rather nasty to newcomers. Unfortunately they're back. I have heard of crazy clique moms and all that crazy entitled s#*t they pull but I did not expect to find it in our small town. This ain't some hip, happening place. Yet here they are. It makes me think of a saying my mom once told me...some people think they are hot shit on a silver platter when they are really cold turd on a paper plate. I could forgive them and overlook them but when you act like you think you're better than my kids and you overlook them....Grrrr....momma bear is gonna eat you.

Anyway, took Henry to the bathroom and decided to leave. I felt horrible for my kiddies. They deserve a good time. The only way to get a seat and get my kids near the story circle is to arrive twenty minutes ahead of time. Perhaps next time.

Yesterday we went for a walk in the afternoon. The weather was warmer and the sidewalks were clear enough to walk on. We might do it again today. Same beautiful weather but very windy.
