shorthairedgirl replied to your post: Hannah keeps asking me about cabbage, which she… This is quite possibly the most adorable thing ever. You should be here.  Now she’s going on and on about “the guy” swimming who has “pink pants” and “WHY DOES HE HAVE GOGGLES ON” and “how come that other purson isn’t in the water?” Hannah...

Hannah keeps asking me about cabbage, which she says in the most adorable way possible. First she asked me what cabbage was. Then she asked if it has doors. Then she asked if we were going to eat cabbage. Then she asked if we were going to go in cabbage. Then she asked if we were going to hang out with a cabbage. Now she’s dancing with a pillow on her head singing, “A cabbage! A...

Ahh…. we’re all clean now. I need to make a pan of enchiladas so we can eat dinner tomorrow. Jeremiah has us watching some sort of swimming on the Olympics.  And by Us Watching, I mean he has it on the TV, he’s asking his sister to punch the bottom of his foot and I’m hiding in the kitchen. I wish I had some black Rit dye. I’m looking forward to bedtime.

My kids are still asleep (11am) I told my MIL I’d be at her house (35 mins away) at noon, after having gotten allergy shots. I got 3 texts messages within 2 minutes that woke me up, at 10:42.  Time to get up I suppose. As a Christian I don’t understand things like “Christians against masturbation.”  I know there’s the whole spilling of the seed scripture in...

nancyfromutah replied to your post: Monday… nothing to report. Are you re-reading those books or for the first time? I’ve been wanting to re-read the Witching Hour for a while. I’ve seen the movies Queen of the Damned and The Interview with the Vampire and I loved them.  A couple years ago I read The Interview with the Vampire.   My sister gave me The Vampire Lestat for Christmas. I...

Monday... nothing to report.
Granola for breakfast. Kids laying on the floor. Husband off at the bank… for ever now. Finished reading The Vampire Lestat and now feel an overwhelming urgency to get my hands on a copy of The Queen of the Damned!  Might have to include the used bookstore in my trip through Oak Ridge today. … That is all.

Texas Road house for dinner and still under my calories for the day.  Did really good on protein too. Now to finish The Vampire Lestat while Tony flips channels. We had a talk about the Olympics and he informed me that I’ve been watching the wrong sort of games my whole life, than I need to watch the field division.  Irish men in kilts tossing logs and shot put and hammer throwing…...

Truck is washed and dried. Tony’s working on his truck. Still waiting on the woman to show up for the bike. Was hoping she’d be here and gone by now so I could talk Tony into the Chinese buffet for dinner. Since she’s not, I guess I’ll go start the skinny mac and cheese.

Truck is cleaned out, vacuumed, wiped down and armor-all’d.  Way to burn calories. Tony is bringing home batteries for Jeremiah and a bag of ice for me. All the sore that I wasn’t yesterday from that fitness class?  I am today. What is wrong with my body? Godbabies’ Mama called me yesterday to remind me that I’m the only person she’s ever met to have their car hit...

Oh Lord, I told the still puny, tired, headache riddled, sensitive 7 yr old boy he could play Wii when every battery in the house was dead. 2 minutes into a level it quit on him.  He changed the Wiimote batteries out with 8 other batteries.  All dead. Many tears ensued. Promises for more batters. Tears of we’ll forget! Ever had to hold an almost 80 pound 4.5 foot tall blubbering...

Missed church playing phone tag with Tony’s boss. Tony unexpectedly has the day off (!!) because some guy who lives 4hrs away is sending his wife to buy Tony’s motorcycle! He bought me Armorall and cleaning pads so I guess I’ll spend the afternoon detailing the inside of my truck. He and Hannah are off at the driving range whacking golf balls. Jeremiah and I are enjoying the...

Me: Do you know that 10 years ago today the last Austin Powers movie hit theaters??
Tony: Goldmember?
Me: Yes. WE ARE SO OLD!
Tony: Whoa, speak for yourself woman! Don't include me in that.
Jeremiah: Daddy, if Mama is old and you're older than she is...
Tony: I need no comment from the peanut gallery. (Dramatic exit)

Everyone’s a critic.  Apparently I’m eating too few calories. I need to eat more protein.  You keep your dirty ideas to yourself.

Reflecting
I’ve just spent the last 2 hours cleaning, though you probably can’t tell.  Our bathroom and kitchen are clean.  The shelves above the stove have been cleaned, decluttered and the small appliances wiped down.  The floors in both rooms have been swept and mopped. I was thinking that earlier someone made a post saying all the rooms in their house were spotless, and I was wistfully...

annabellerambler replied to your post: PSA That and the pomegranate low carb kroger brand both taste like hand soap or shampoo to me. Gar… I didn’t even mean to buy low carb.  I was just looking at yogurt and thought, “I like pears!” so I grabbed that one.  GROSS!  I got a vanilla chai tea one also that I’m afraid to try now.
