Outside contact finally!!!

The last several days our internet has been down. Well actually, the wireless account we've been using (but isn't ours) has been down. I have felt so cut off from the outside world it's ridiculous!

I didn't take the kids anywhere all week because Allie was such a cranky pants, we just seemed to move from one tantrum to another. She didn't take her nap two of the days and didn't fall asleep until 10pm one night, making her unreasonable most of the week. Then to compound matters, the internet was down so I couldn't talk to anyone on MSN Instant Messenger. Until now, I haven't understood those moms who expressed the desperate need to have adult interaction after a full day of just them and their children. I realize now it's because I've have been able to chat with everyone using the internet.

I was determined to be strong however, instead of signing up for service again right away (which I couldn't price anyway because of course... no internet). Thankfully, I won't have to see how long I could have lasted. You don't realize how much you depend on something until it is gone.
