Well I can't really think of a name for this post so here's one

Hey butterers, Sue here.
After a trying weekend with both a power outage and a horrific sinus infection, I'm finally feeling better (thanks to some strong antibiotics). I'm off on Mondays and generally spend the day running around but forced myself to lower the bar for once and just rest and reset the power button. Okay, I didn't exactly rest - I did some PR work from home, laundry, brought the kids to dentist appointments, Katie to dance and now I'm home. But that's a really slow day. I'm sure you other moms - and dads - can relate. Going to work is always the easiest part of my day. But as I mentioned in an earlier post, after a lifetime of being an overachiever, I am desperately trying to be happy with mediocre. My new mantra is "it's good enough." Sometimes it just has to be.

I am working on pitching bread + butter to some new media outlets including Fetch with Ruff Ruffman on PBS (we'd make a great challenge for the Fetchers), the fourth hour of the Today show, etc. Our dream would be to have Ryan Seacrest wear our t-shirt on Idol - that would catapult us into the stratosphere but actually getting it to him is the challenge. The assistant to his agent's publicist might end up with it at best. It's a tough contact, even when you're in the PR business like I am.

Anyway, time for homework and showers and a new Two and a Half Men tonight (unless Charlie Sheen is still in rehab). We'll check back in tomorrow. Have a great night.
