All Thumbs Thursday - Spring

A nod to my friend Mep, who created All Thumbs Thursday but who hasn't been doing much blogging lately, other than our BlogTrotting* fun, due to the recent birth of her little girl!

What has my Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down on this yucky Thursday morning?

The beguiling aroma of freshly mowed grass. / The itchy, watery eyes and runny nose associated with pollen and grass allergies. Zyrtec, take me away!

Waking up to yellow rays of sunshine. / Confused that it's still daylight when we put her to bed, Sophie fights sleep until the sun goes down. AT 9. Conversely, she's up at 5:30. Ugh. Double Ugh.

Breaking out the flip-flops and fun summer clothes. / Packing all of my winter clothes away only to have the temperature drop 30 degrees and having to dig it all back out.

Pedicures! / Having to shave my legs so I don't confuse the lady at the nail salon about my gender.

    I came over from TJ's today because she did the Blogtrotting post. It was fabulous so I decided I needed to visit.

  4. I've cursed the weather many times in the last week. I would have cursed the gods, but they've stopped listening.

    And my boy goes to bed at 11pm, so I don't feel sympathy.

  8. I'm mid way through unpacking summer clothes. I've done three of my boys and my girl, got rid of three rubbermaids full of clothes...then I lost a little motivation...come on sunshine, give me some juice!

  9. Yeah, the weather here is weird as well. 80's one day, 40's the next. I have to do the wardrobe switchout.

    And yes, allergies are HORRIBLE this year! I recently put my kids on Zyrtec. How's that working for you? We've just started.

  10. Oh how I've missed your posts! Sophie's sleeping patterns sound so much like how my older daughter was. I swear I felt like a walking zombie for years!

    And I hear you on the weather. The temperatures have been wonky lately.

  11. There are some upsides to Daylight Savings time and summer (I loathe the heat and shaving my legs)....it means fall is not too far off! Of course, this will mean the date getting closer to EE '10 that I will not be able to attend. That makes me sad. and mad. Dangit. Now I'm going to feel about fall the way I feel about summer.....come on winter....:)

  12. P. used to be that way with the daylight savings. She would say to me: "but the lights are still on, I can't go to sleep yet.".

    Drove me crazy.
