It's been a trying day at my house to say the least today. I finally sat down to my computer to get a "brain break" as my 5yo calls it, only to run into another obstacle in life:( With Easter approaching, I've had two invites to egg hunts only to have to turn them down due to food allergies my family deals with. Each year however, I do my own "allergy friendly" egg hunt for other families who face the same dilemma but it's a lot of work.

So, today, I'm secretly wishing that others who don't deal with allergies would understand and try to accomodate so my kids can feel, "normal" for once with the other kids and I can get a break from always having to come up and plan the alternative, it's exhausting and not to mention expensive at times!!

Now back to reality.....

What can I do next?

When I read the title of this question, I thought to myself "hmm, what would I wish for today?"

THEN I read all of your responses.

I hope YOU ALL GET YOUR WISHES! Every single last one of you.
That's my wish.
I'm okay right now so here's to all of you getting what you want!

that someone would wave a magic wand that would clean and organize my house, that my dog were not sick and barfing all over, that I were a lower weight, and that I had way more energy. I'd take just the clean house, if I had to choose just one.

I'm secretly wishing for a huge, ginormous, horrendous blizzardy snowstorm that will close schools for the next week.

Oh, wait. It's spring. It's been spring since January. This is the year with no snow, no rain, no ice, no nuthin' remotely resembling winter.

Two more weeks to spring break...

I could also go for a nap.

And my husband is getting back today from his annual golf trip--I hope he gets here earlier than planned. I'm almost maxed out as a single parent! :)

It's not a secret but I got some bad news last week so my wish is that my vision would return to normal or that when all is stabilized, I will be able to see well enough to drive, read and look for work.

The last two days have been crazy. We are planning a family reunion for Easter weekend,I have been to 6 baseball/softball practices(one that lasted 3hrs!), my daughter had cheer tryouts last night and they didn't post the results until 10pm (but she made it yay), one of my kids has hives from head to toe,my house looks like it was hit by a tornado and I'm babysitting today...blah. So, I wish for a babysitter, a super cute outfit and a night out with my hubby....so NOT happening today. Oh well :)

300 million dollars, PERFECT health for my whole family, and a trip to Disney World THIS weekend are what I thought of, several times, today. That's not too much to secretly wish for, right?

I’m going to 2nd what someone said earlier plus a little: that someone would wave a magic wand that would clean and organize my house, that I were a lower weight, that I would understand a 3yo mind/behavior better, that I would get out of this terribly depressed state I’ve been in for the last month and that I had way more energy. Overall, I'd take just the clean/organized house, if I had to choose just one. I think that would make a huge difference in my world right now. A clean house is so much nicer to come home to and I think it’d make me feel better.

i have the pleasant dilemma of knowing that i should really drive the hour to frederick and watch the maryland shakespeare festival's bare bard production of 'the merchant of venice' (i start teaching it for the first time in 2 weeks) or stay home on a lovely cool rainy day and veg in front of the fire with my kindle and some junkfood tv, and finish the laundry.
i'd much rather stay home.
but i'll probably go.
