My boring day

Places I went today: the mailbox…with lucas…it was painstakingly slow

Something I did today: walked to the mailbox, read, slept

What Lucas was up to: drug around a decorative table and laughed at me when i told him no

Profound thoughts: lauren – i actually just haven’t made any updates because after *consults calendar* nearly two weeks of going out and doing stuff every day of the week, i have not left the house in 5 days. which means i really had nothing to talk about unless yall cared about the status of my farm.

i did passively clean out the 3rd garage this weekend. by that i mean i freecycled (that means you give stuff you would throw out away to other people to use for free) everything and had a bunch of people come to my house and haul it away for me. now we have space to store all the crap currently in our actual garage. still waiting on my cricut cartridge to be delivered so that i can get started on lucas’s bday invites.

i will at least have something to post thursday tho, because tomorrow kristie and i are going to a concert!!!

lauren is soooo smart

– lauren fixed my blog subscriber! apparently im retarded and where it listed “categories to exclude” i thought it was categories to include, so i had excluded everything from the email list.

– sorry jenn, this is too funny so i hafta throw it up here:
Wildkittn3 (11:47:06 PM): Parenthood (tv show) made me kinda glad i’m not having a girl – teen girls are such bitches
Wildkittn3 (11:47:41 PM): oh! quote of the day, during that particular scene jenn says “I”m glad i was never a teenage girl!”
ModernHecate (11:49:59 PM): nah she was a teenage mutant ninja turtle!

– ive made a baby registry for lucas’s birthday presents
http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/baby/N6KSCOD91OZ4– im really excited about ryan. every time i hear the name ryan i get excited. i wish it was july already so i could start buying stuff!

– pasting stuff keeps screwing with my font but im not gonna fix it (edit: (jenn) I fixed it cause it was making me twitchy.)

– today we “cleaned out the garage” which means i got rid of two small items and that was pretty much it

– stuff i hafta buy: AC for eleanor erin, a new fridge, a DSLR camera, landscaping, house appraisal, and a new car…<sarcasm>yay</sarcasm>

– i was gonna type more random crap, but paul is going to bed now so im going to go read The Host (yes i just read it, but i am re-reading)

Today I…

Places I went today: Lucas and I went to lunch in Marietta Sq with Steph, mom, and ron, then steph flew home to boston 😦

Something I did today: fell asleep on the futon as soon as i was home from lunch

What Lucas was up to: not much today…he walked around at lunch and ate a tiny bit of my pancake (like 1 bite)

Profound thoughts: im so behind on my scrapbooking. i need to have it all done by his 1st bday!  it really sucks that steph went back home today. i feel like she was barely here.

and then there was one

well im down to one cichlid. i think this one might have actually died of natural causes *gasp* since it was over 4 years old. ive been waiting for the last few to kick the bucket so i can redo the tank.i have a sick fascination with watching the frogs eat fish.

paul, lucas, and i ran errands at petsmart, michaels and the grocery store today. i’m putting lucas on the gerber diet…it’s like how jenny craig had those meal plans that were organized so that you ate healthy stuffs and hit up all the food groups each day. he has these little puff snacks that taste like applejacks or something and i sneak a couple whenever i feed them to him because they taste yummy.

when we were shopping we let lucas walk around instead of making him ride in the cart so he followed us around the stores. we also showed him the fish tanks at petsmart.

this post darn well better show up in people’s email addies now that i installed that app.

Today I…

Places I went today: Sarah and i went to Kennestone Hospital to get a fertility test done – she’s all clear, so she will start Clomid next month, then we went to ihop for pancakes! Afterward I picked up Steph and we went back home to go over Europe plans. The day ended with dinner at OCharleys w/ Paul, Lucas, Steph, Dad, Liz, and Grandmother Stone. I was so tired from my long day that I fell asleep on the couch as soon as I got home.

Something I did today: Dad lent me his Nikon camera to try out. I’m thinking about getting the same kind so I want to play around with it before I spend $500+ on one.

What Lucas was up to: He learned to walk while wearing shoes and kept walking all over OCharleys – he got fussy if we tried to have him sit in the chair – he wanted to GO.

Profound thoughts: 1. we hafta buy a new fridge 😦  2. im so excited that lauren is pregnant and sarah will be getting pregnant. i saw twin newborns, a boy and girl 5 days old, at Kennestone and they were sooo tiny!   3. what does it say about your family when you can ask at the dinner table “If an alien was trying to sneak out of the CDC, how easily do you think he could do it?”  and have them give you a serious answer

Dream

note: this is an old dream i found in the drafts folder…i have no idea what the date was that i dreamt it…pretty creepy

This morning i had a dream that i was a single mom to a 10 year old daughter, and i shared a townhouse with two other single moms and their daughters. all our daughters were in gymnastics together. then one day the police come to say that one of the other mothers from gymnastics’ daughter had been murdered and he was trying to find out if we knew anything (not suspects, just gathering info). after the cops leave we are getting our daughters ready for bed and i asked my daughter if she knew anyone that might do that. she turned all evil and her eyes went grey and black she gripped my arms and said in a totally different voice “i killed her”. she told me she killed her because she was competition in the gymnastics. then she told me she killed the handy man too cause he was rude to her and walled him into the stairs we’d been renovating in the house. basically anyone that made her mad she just killed and thought nothing of it. i was terrified of making her mad so i just acted like it was no big deal and put her to bed. then i was trying to coordinate with the cops a way for them to take her without her suspecting anything.

Today I…

People I saw today: Stephanie!!(visiting home from boston) and dad

Places I went today: Cracker Barrel breakfast with the above + lucas, Kohls w/ steph

Something I did today: Steph and i went clothes shopping at Kohls so she could get jeans and i could get new spring tops. we also watched Chasing Liberty to get pumped up for our trip

What Lucas was up to: he came to breakfast with us and ate part of a biscuit and a tiny tiny bit of my eggs. during chasing liberty they go bungy(sp) jumping and the girl screams…lukcas started crying! i assume because of the scream because i dont see how he could understand the falling part

Profound thoughts: ive decided that syrup is made of electrons and my skin has the kinds of protons it likes because every time i eat something that involves syrup, it somehow gets all over me

more posting

in an effort to encourage myself to post more frequently, i have copied lauren/jenny’s way of doing a formatted update thingy. typically my problem is having lots to say and therefor procrastinating typing it out. so i will use my form posts to encourage myself to do more, little blog posts. for copy/paste purposes, here is the blank form.
