Goth Girls

It's Spring Break. While it's been 80's and 90's for the last week or so, yesterday the sky darkened up and it came pouring down. So bad the power went out for four hours. As such I decided not to go to Myrtle Beach, SC with the kids today. Dammit.

We are, however, cleaning today. In the back of my mind my goal is to get daughters room looking picture-perfect and then swinging by the ol' hardware hell for a gallon of pink paint. Or a gallon of the perfect shade of light blue for my room. Or both. Both would be great!

Yesterday it was dark and dreary, no sense cleaning in the dark. We lit candles, played games, read books, annoyed one another. Daughter found the magic markers Oma had sent in the Easter extravaganza. Special magic markers filled with flavored food coloring for coloring rock hard cookies. Daughter and I decided to go goth with the black marker.

Really, if you think about it, since we took no pictures on Easter, and these were special magic Easter markers, this is our Easter picture this year.
