So Confused

I don't know about you but this weather has me really confused. I'm a confused person at the best of times. One of the side effects of my migraine medication Topomax actually says it causes "mental blurring". Mental blurring? What exactly is that supposed to mean? I'm not really sure except to say that now I can blame pretty much everything I do wrong on my migraine medication. Say something stupid, forget something, take a wrong turn, forget someone's name... blame it on the medication. My sisters who are also on the same medication call it a dopomax moment. I forgot to pick up marshmallows today for my son's cubscouts activity tomorrow night - dopomax moment. I feel sorry for other people who don't have a scapegoat like I do. It is rather comforting to have an excuse rather than know that I could actually be truly absent-minded, directionally-challenged or down right thoughtless. That would be horrific.

The weather has no excuse however. Here we are just a few weeks ago.


And here we are just a couple of days ago.


I got all of our summer bins out as we were roasting and burning in the sun. Smiley was disappointed as I told him to put back his shorts and t-shirt he had laid out on his dresser the night before to wear to school. I put back on all my winter layers and turned on the heater to the house that Brett had turned off on Saturday. Hopefully this back and forth of hot and cold will not last too long. Too bad we can't give Mother Nature some medication for these hot and cold flashes.
