New Year's List Update

Hello folks! I can't wait for the little lady to wake up today so we can go outside and enjoy this spectacular Spring weather. Sixty-nine degrees and the wind is out of the South! A perfect day for the park, followed by some free, yummy pizza. Is it really still March?!

So I wanted to give a little update on my New Year's list. You know, the one over there --->? So far I have very little crossed off of my list. I attended the Open House. I made a decision about Grad School and my application will be completed and sent in before April 1st (yes, I am aware that is Thursday). I am planning out most of my meals every week, but I would like to become more consistent. I have an idea I will outline in a future post. I have two failures and they are that I have decided to forgo the Couch to 5K program. I just have to come to terms that I don't like running, it doesn't feel good to me and I can't commit to something right now that takes so much time. Maybe in the future. So no 5Ks for me. And I have decided against the Wii Fit, I can't justify the expense right now and I honestly don't have the time when I am home. Maybe I'll invest in a Cardio DVD or two. That seems more reasonable.

The rest of the list? Well, now that the weather is getting warmer it will be a little easier to get outside and accomplish them. I'm looking forward to the outdoor events and spending quality time in the fresh air. Seriously, I ask myself all Winter long why I live in the Mid-West. If the Spring/Summer months weren't so wonderful I don't think it would be worth it.

Now You See Me, Later You Won't

Although I've been away from this space for quite some time I was surprised to see that people were still reading it. Go me! So, although I am not going to be blogging in this space for much longer, I'm going to leave it up for the time being. If nothing else as a way for people to find me in my next space. Next space you say? Yes, I'm moving. When I started this blog things were very different from what they are now. I thought we were moving abroad much sooner, I was not going to school and there were no definite plans for a second baby. That being said, the last few months I felt like I was not able to really be comfortable in this space. So I'm opting to move someplace else, under a different blog name and start again. I really hope that you will move over with me; I've so enjoyed having you along for the ride! So, sometime soon I will post about my new digs. As soon as I find the time to put something up over...

Lady in the Sky, With Broccoli

We've had a whirlwind, chaotic, hectic, exciting week. It was a week of fixes, car naps, quick meals and heat. Oh, the heat! I finally feel like today we had the chance to tone things down and take a breath. The Little Lady and I were left to our devices for the evening while the Mr. took a much deserved night off. We had a light dinner and then went outside for our favorite pre-bed activity, Bubble Chasing. (Well, she chases, I blow). The following conversation ensued. Laying in the grass: MP: Hey LL, look at all those clouds! LL: Yeah mom, clouds. MP: What do you see up there? I see bunny ears! LL: They just puffy mama. MP: (Humph, this might not work...) LL: Mama, I see Lady! MP: (Getting excited) That's great, what's she doing? LL: Lady in Sky, with Broccoli. I like Broccoli! MP: Well, yes, it does look like broccoli. What else do you see? LL: Poop in a glass. Ha...

A Confession

First let me come clean. I'm pregnant. Now, let the next thirty-one weeks commence where I talk of nothing else except my growing belly, appetite and need for Cheetos. Not really, but I will say this; I'm tired. So tired that normal everyday tasks that should only take me a few minutes suddenly sit around, unfinished, for days at a time. Examples? The dishwasher, the dirty dishes, groceries (the non-perishable ones, duh), folding the laundry, making the bed. I mean, there are much better things to do, like, stuff handfuls of popcorn in my mouth while watching all the episodes of Angel, in order. Don't judge me, I am returning to school in a few weeks; maybe this is just me trying desperately to channel myself as a Freshman in college? Who the heck knows. What I do know that my "golden time," or nap time as it is commonly called, was once used to clean, cook, tidy up, rest and blog. Well, you know how much blogging I've done o...
