I'm really liking Lady Gaga's new song. I didn't at first because it is so different from her usual songs but the more I hear it I'm really liking the words and everything. I have a feeling this will be played at a ton of bars and weddings coming up.
I'm trying to get back into running again and ran 1 mile straight last night, walked a lap, and ran another mile! I was super excited with myself. Glad there is stuff like Teen Mom on at night that keeps me distracted when on the treadmill.
I just had ice cream cake because it is someone's anniv at work and now my stomach feels ick.
Re: Randoms/Confessions/Vents/Bla bla bla
I have a half brother I've never met. I know his first name and that's all.
I need a day off, all to myself, but that won't happen.
I freaking love gaga.
I cant wait until Audrey's bedtime tonight so I can work on these nestie necklaces. Is that bad or what.. I am looking forward to our time together too though!
I had an epic psycho meltdown last night when Ryan and I went to bed.. omg, pathetic. You know, the type where it always ends with self loathing, talking about how fat you are? Ew, embarassing. I need a drink.
It's not the big 3-0 is it? I wonder if they are planning a surprise.
Eh, I think you're younger than me though, arent you? Hmm... well maybe its a surprise anyway!
Anders just spent the last hour in his crib whispering, not napping (not uncommon for him to do for 30 minutes, but not normal to do for an hour) When I went in to find him one of our dogs had gotten locked in his room and was staring at him while he whispered to to dog. He is now sitting on the couch laughing hysterically at our other dog snoring in his sleep.
Our neighbor hits his "lock" buttom (which beeps loudly every time he hits it) at least 10 times when he get home. Once, yep it's locked, two-three times-okay, maybe just checking to make SURE it's locked, but 10+ times??? Okay, now you're just annoying.
Nothing Bundt Cakes is my new favorite place! So delicious!
It's MARGARIA night! Ole!
I put my husband on Red Bull/Vodka probation after his antics this weekend. He passed out in the front lawn. This was after he and his buddy decided to put beer cans in the neighbors yards! It's funny now, wasn't funny then. Best part was, the dog was out there all curled up next to him:)
Wow, you are old as fu*k aren't you?
Just kidding. No I'm not 30, and they day anyone I know actually surprises me with something nice I will more than likely keel over and die from the astonishment. I know I'm being a big baby but no one ever thinks of me. It sucks.
I'm listening to Teen Mom while working.
I'm having super anxiety about the thought of selling our house, moving, building, etc. Just getting cold feet, with a second showing to someone, it makes it more "real".
I am exhausted and not sure why... maybe anxiety from the house stuff.
I'm ready and excited for dinner tonight. It's beautiful out and I can't wait to sit out and grill!
I am a F'ing pack rat...I am sitting here staring at 5 totes of clothes that are all C's. He is only 3 and I have already sold a TON of his stuff. WTF, why do I keep all of this? I am never going to use any of it again.
Along the same lines....I have 4 totes of maternity clothes. I kind of want to burn them one by one, but they were expensive.
I need to serously have someone who is an organizing junkie come in and tell me WTF to do with this house. There is no storage and I keep everything. I need the kick in the a$$ to get rid of stuff (sell, donate, give away, trash) and get everything ORGANIZED, not just put away.
I have a bunch of people coming over tonight to learn some basic signs and I need to be cleaning and baking and Ruby won't cooperate. She's tired but won't stay asleep and won't hang out in her Jumperoo or Bumbo like she usually will. Guess there won't be any goodies and there will be a layer of dust on everything.
Andersen locked us out of the house today. I'm irrationally annoyed with H for not putting a housekey back on my keychain.
I'm on day 3 of WW and I'm hungry. I could eat fruit or veggies but none of those things sound good.
I'm starting to feel really resentful and I hate feeling this way, but can't snap out of it.
I think I'm going to smart off to the next person who tells me I have my hands full when they see me in public with three kids.
My cousin in law called this weekend to tell us he and his new wife are expecting. "We conceived on our honeymoon! Oops!" Then DH's co-worker knocked up his girlfriend. It's a damn good thing this didn't happen two years ago or I'd have curled in a ball and cried myself to sleep. It still stings to hear people getting pg who aren't even trying.
I had a Whole Foods panini for lunch, and while crazy expensive, it was amazing.
I was solo for day this weekend and ran three seperate times, over 20 miles, and loved every second of it. It made me miss my old, pre-mom life just a little bit.
I also decided Monday that I need to take better care of myself. I'm constantly hungry, thirsty, tired, hazy, and feeling weak and scrawny. Day 3, and I'm feeling better already.
Aw thanks Shannon-that is sweet of you-we should all try and have lunch next week-that would be fun.
I'll send an email
I agree on the Lady Gaga stuff. I think she's weird as heII but I really like her songs when they first come out (and aren't over-played yet) and I've contemplated buying her album.
I listen to NPR on my drive home. I think a lot of them have weird sounding voices. And it annoys me that the Michele Norri's name is pronounced "Mee-shel" - and how strongly she seems to make the point that it's pronouced this way whenever she comes on.
I was extreamly excited last night grocery shopping because hamburger was on sale for $2/lb (85/15 - the ones in the tube things at Hy-Vee), so we bought 6 of them. I kinda want to go back and stockpile more now though because I feel like it's such a great deal.
I'm in a cooking rut. I make the same crap over and over. Mostly because DH is such a picky eater and if I would just cook for me, he'd just eat frozen pizza and pizza rolls.
I want to do something different with my hair but I'm scared to change it much. (It's on the shorter side too so there's not a whole lot I can change with it).
I got a spray tan last week and LOVED how it looked. I forgot how much better I feel about myself when I have a tan. and now I want to go get them weekly to keep the color.
I got a super cute dress for my sister's rehersal dinner and am excited to wear it because I feel hot in it.
Send him a bill.
I think we might be going to the Penn State-Nebraska game and I'm really excited about it.
Work has been stressful the last few weeks but it's getting slightly better.
I'm starting to meal plan again after a busy July.
TTC #1 since 08/11 IUI#2 = BFP!
I'll come help you get organized but I will wear my b$tch hat and you will have to have your big girl panties on. Just saying. Now I am not available till Sept. 15th. so keep that in mind.
Agreed! I wonder how long that sting will last?
I just want this headache to go away, its not the migraine it was anymore thank gosh, but I feel like I"ve been hit with a dump truck.
The research paper I ever so procrastinated on...I got a 96% on. I'll take it! 3 more ethics courses, graduation in Dec, baby in March....then maybe I"ll be able to finally get a job I enjoy?!
My poor house had suffered the last couple of weeks and I"m trying to dig my way through it now that school is through for awhile.
I really want to get away for a couple days on the 20th and 21st....just me and my DH....but not sure where to go or what to do.
I'm not sure it ever goes away!
Dh is thinking about starting up a business. He's working on getting trained, looking into small business loans (if we need to), looking for an attorney, etc. It's all a little exciting and scary. I am looking forward to him being his own boss.
Ian doesn't want to give up nursing. We'll give him a bottle, he'll drink it, but he will cry or fuss until he nurses then he's fine. Right now I am just going with the flow.
I am procrastinating about E's birthday party and I's baptism. I need to get to working on both of them.
This exactly!
Go to Chateau Avalon in KC! Close to Legacy(?) shopping center. Nice getaway.
