I have to say that I kind of assume the rest of the world is as obsessed with the world wide web as I am. And then I realize that they are not. Then I have to re-think my time-spending priorities.
New Years resolutions. It's getting to be that time which breaks my heart a little bit, because I know I have only backtracked since my half-year check up for my 2011 resolutions. So it seems like my resolutions will simply be a re-peat here for 2012.
2012. that's crazy. time flies, people. it really does.
I have had a really lovely christmas with all my family, but I have to give a shout out to my sister, Margaret, because I have had a great GREAT time hanging out with her. She lives in Indianna, so I don't see her much, and although I miss my other 3 sisters this holiday season, I sure am glad that Marg is here so that I have her. It's been great to reconnect with her and get to know her kids better, as I don't see them very often at all.
I'm trying to dress more stylishly lately. lame? perhaps. And it's not because I am feeling inferior or like I NEED to dress better...I just have always wanted to and suddenly it hit me..."What's stopping me?" haha. So here are some things I've purchased with my christmas money: skinny jeans (right as they are probably going OUT of style with my luck, but whatevs. I try.) trying the big belt look and I've really liked it, but now it makes me want a bunch of skinny belts with the cardigan look - I love that, so I need to get some of those. I have plenty of cardigans already. I bought a new plaid shirt from old navy that I am definitely going to buy another one of because it is my absolute fave. comfy, flattering, and long. win-win-win. I got a kind of different skirt from Bella Ella today, not my usual pick, but I liked it so I figured I give it a try. And that's about it, I guess. I need some more shirts and dear me something NEW with this mop of hair on my head, and then my "new look" will be completed. I figure with my birthday next month and some promising bonuses coming up I should be able to do all these things without too much of a dent in our budget. friveless? quite. vain? possibly. exciting? most definitely.
it has taken me 3 weeks to finally fold the freaking laundry.now if that's not a confession, I don't know what is.
I got teeth whitener for Christmas. I can already see a major different. 100% stoked about this. THANK JAMES! (or Rocky, I guess. the package did say "To mom from Rocky" but I'm fairly certain James had something to do with it...)
Grace has been lying so much lately. I do NOT know what to do about this. because a lot of the time I don't KNOW what is really true. so do I trust her even though I am fairly certain she IS lying and let her get away with it? do I hound her until she tells the truth? do I tell her terrible stories randomly about people who lied and the consequences that followed?!!? I have NO IDEA. help!
James and I...after 15 months...have finally been released from Nursery. Now that was a great Christmas present.
James got me some slippers for christmas. I cannot take them off. they are so warm and soft and make my feet so happy and warm - I would sleep in them if I could. they are my fave. it's the little things in life, I guess...
Well, it's time to hit the sack.
HAPPY THURSDAY.
ps- remind me to tell you about the bad date and the date re-do card. love my hub.
2 nuggets of joy:
Awesome sauce! I've been wanting to whiten my teeth too... but I have really weak enamel and I'm nervous about giving myself teeth problems... maybe I'll figure it out. As for Grace lying... On this forum that I'm participating it, they say that pre-schoolers lie alot... and most of the time they don't know that they are lying. I don't know if it helps but here's the link. http://www.babycenter.com/404_why-does-my-toddler-lie_6829.bc
I need to look more awesome. But then I run every stinkin day, in the awesome heat I live and I so then I must shower and wash my hair. And then I must clean house and do all those awesome duties that I find I have no time (okay I probably have some I would just rather spend it doing something else) to make myself beautiful. So then I have an awesome pom pom a top my head, awesome scrubby pants and a t shirt. Yep that is what I look like MOST of the time. Sad. Really. I mean, what is the point of getting your body into awesome shape if you aren't going to show it off a little? Maybe one day I will be like you and be one heck of a hot mama. until then. sweats and t shirt. You always look fabulous though, I am excited to see these new looks. post pics.
Oh and toddlers lie. reward them for when you know they are telling the truth. talk about what lying is so they know. Then when you catch them in it, talk to them about it. that's all i know. helpful huh? loves. Hey I get to see you in may! YAY!
