No time for anything

Today my Mom reminded me that I haven't blogged in a few weeks. This is due to a number of things:

1-I have worked overtime lately.
2-Days that I haven't had to work overtime, people have called in sick and I am exhausted when I get home.
3-I have been trying to make dinner more so we don't eat out as much. When you get off at 8, then cook dinner, it is almost time to go to bed after dinner is done.
4-I spend a lot of time doing maintenance cleaning on my house, ex: vacuuming, laundry, mopping, etc.
5-No one wants to see pictures of my darling kittens in every post.
6-I don't have adorable children to post pictures of all the time(trust me, I wish I did.)
7-I don't think many people read my blog, so I haven't made it a priority.
8-I have been preparing for a mini album workshop which has taken up my spare time.
9-I am in a little bit of a funk right now. I just don't feel like doing anything.

There you have it. Many reasons I haven't blogged. Jeremy has a 5 day weekend coming up and has gotten the urge to paint the kitchen. I should have pictures to post of that soon. We are discussing what color(s) to paint it and aren't agreeing. Any suggestions?

Emergency Room Fun

Jeremy thought he had a hernia on Tuesday. Turns out not.

Change

I caved. I joined Facebook. I have been resisting for a while as it will be one more thing to occupy my all too precious time. But after finding out that even my Mom is on Facebook, I figured it was time to join. I rarely go on Myspace any more, due to the fact that many of my "friends" on there are no longer really part of my life. Friendships really have changed over the last year and I don't feel comfortable posting pics or info on there anymore. That is the main reason I started this blog. So certain people that I don't want to know the most current details of my life, won't. Those who I do want to keep in touch with, I let know about my blog. However, I have lost touch with some people, and a few left Myspace because of too much spam. Now I will be able to find them again. So Facebook will be a fresh start.

On a side note, we finished the crown molding and the chair rail this weekend. Now I need to find the perfect bedding to go with the room. Any suggestions? I know you are supposed to pick fabrics first, then paint to compliment, however Jeremy wanted to paint right then, so there was no time to find bedding first. The blue chair is just thrown in that room as left over furniture. Do not let it guide you in a color suggestion.

Thanks!

Oops!

Once again, I have managed to break a perfectly good laptop. Last time I stepped on it. Well, I don't think I stepped on the laptop, I think Jeremy stepped on it. The shoe print that was on the laptop looked suspiciously like Jeremy's shoe, but he blames me. Regardless, the screen ended up with a large crack through it. Jeremy eventually bought me a new one when he found a good deal. That was July of 2006. Last night I had my laptop charging on top of the clothes hamper. I was trying to be good by not leaving it on the floor to charge, and not out where the kittens could chew on the cord. I thought I had learned from my mistakes. Wrong!!! I trip over the cord, knocking the laptop off the hamper and break the charger off inside where it connects to the laptop. Oops. For taking so many years of dance and looking so graceful, I sure have become a clumsy person! Back to the point, my broken laptop. My wonderful husband comes to the rescue again by taking my laptop to Fry's and buying a new charger or the laptopand fixing the port. Maybe this time I will have learned my lesson for good.

Busy, busy, busy...

Painting this

and this

which will eventually result in... one awesome guest suite! Chair rail, crown molding, new mattress, comforter and decorations to follow.

Happy 2009!

Christmas Review

Christmas was awesome! Good food, good family, and good presents. However, now that it is all over, Jeremy keeps telling me how spoiled I am am. He says he got me Kittens, a new Car, and a House for Christmas. Wrong! I am spoiled, but Kittens, a Car and a House were not my Christmas presents.

The kittens were technically my Birthday present.

Jeremy and I have wanted to get Kittens since we got married, so he got off easy by giving me kittens as a Birthday present.

My car was needed so we can have children. Strapping a Child in a 2 door car is not my idea of fun or practical, so the car was a necessity.

The house was for both of us, and I contribute to the mortgage, so the house is not a present! I have a feeling I am going to be hearing that our house is my Anniversary/Birthday/Christmas present for the next 30 years!

Here are my favorite REAL presents!
(from my Mom and my Mother-in-law)

Books! A little Jon and Kate plus 8 and The Tales of Beedle the Bard. Enjoy It! by C Jane can be found here.

Last but not least, my Crocs!!!
