No Real Point
So I am home alone .. AHHHHH, the kids are at a friends house who actually called ME if they could come over. Who am I to deny such a need?! So I am sitting here listening to Holly, the Christmas channel on XM radio and I am SO GLAD that they put it up. I seriously could sit here all day just listening to it, dreaming of a clean house, fresh bakes Christmas cookies, kids laughing and all getting along and a beautiful dining room table decorate like we are going to have a lavish party. Its nice to dream, huh.
As much as I am enjoying this break to lay in bed and be miserable with this nasty nausea that i STILL have, I am hungry and crave a juicy steak with some garlic flavored shrimp and creamy mashed potatoes. Man, I am hungry. or i will settle for a juciy, drippy, yummy hamburger and salty fries. ohhh yeah that sounds good!!!
must stop thinking about food.
My hubby bought me the American Idol game for XBOX the other day for our anniversary, which was a great surprise. But what is funny is that I hate video games except for a VERY few. I love frogger which was an Atari game and i like Tetris and I LOVE LOVE any singing game. now, you must understand that I am not a person that can carry a tune but when I am all alone, I feel like I can sing any song just as good as that artist. AHAHAHA. Sometimes you might even catch me dancing around like I am some famous dancer. But if you catch me and either one, I will deny what you saw or heard to the death!! And we wonder where my daughter gets her dramatic sense…. well i actaully just blame that on my parents.
I had my doc appointment yesterday – and i really like my doc. She is one of those who is a no BS doc. I had one other doc like that when i was prego with Matty and it was good that she was like that otherwise I would still be walking around with issues. Anywho, so my doc actuallly asked me if I was planning on any more kids after this. she did not think it was a great idea since i get so sick – ya, YA think?!! Unless God has some other (sick) plan, I have to be done. being miserable is not one of my best traits. But I give credit to my hubby who has been dealing with me. Poor guy sleeps on the couch most nights just so I get a good nights sleep and so he does not distrub me while he is watching HOURS of tv. What a great guy. He has not once complained on how terribly messy my house is or that I am STILL in my pjs. And my kids, my sweet kids, they are a huge help too. They aren’t so great on keeping house but really helpul with playing with each other and asking me if i need anything.
So I have really rambled on pretty much about nothing- like i mentioned in the title.
I wonder if I wriggled my nose hard enough if i can get either that steak or burger to show up on my pillow?!!???
Check out this stud! This was the most lovable baby/ one year old I have yet to meet. He was such a cutie and we all found a new game to keep him occupied at home.
Jenna and Terry ~ I had a great time meeting you all. I hope you enjoy the pictures!
{ Look What I Made }
Today is one of those days where my body doesn’t know if its feeling good or if i need to chill out by the bathroom, but i have been eating ALL day and so far so good as long as i dont stop.
so in the midst of the food binge
I decided to get a little bit creative today and completely ignore my list of things to do. Not that I actually have the energy to do any of that list but I have a new product to show case, just in time for the new upcoming year.
Calendar pages.
Now here are some samples of pages and styles.
This collection is a mini calendar set with 5 styles. The pages are all custom with colors and deco paper and even any quotes or poems you want to use. You can use this mini calendar set as 5×7 magnets, a 5×7 soft cover book or 5×7 hard cover book to carry in your purse or in your diaper bag. Each book that is ordered also comes with ledger pages for important notes, phone numbers and info!
So if you are looking for a new calendar for 2009 or a great little gift for a friend or relative, why not get them ones of these. How about some book marks to go with them as a gift from me
this style is an 11×17 poster used as a calendar.( the red border and green border is not printed on there. that was a mistake by me)
Now of course if you are looking for a regular calendar, we can make them just call or email for more info and pricing
Not mine, thank goodness – that would mean that I would be THIRTY!! YIKES. Nope, it not me, but this cute bundle of sweetness, Miss. A
I photographed her back when she was just a sweet newborn and NOW look at her. All grown up and ONE!! man, how time flies!
Check out how cute she is.
Yup! I got a gift today from God. The gift of feeling better. I know that it might be short lived but for today I will enjoy the little bit of energy that I have. In fact, I was able to pick up my kitchen and living room today. I was proud of myself. True, after I was done, I succumbed to the couch for some “office” work and all of this I did while listening to Christmas music. I am a sucker for Christmas music and for me its never too early to listen to it. But as far as my gift, I am SO grateful and thankful that i was able to do something today, even if it was just a little. We all have to start somewhere, right??
Speaking of gifts… I was asked once again if there was something that I needed and I finally bucked up and said yes. To my great surprise, it was more than I could have ever asked for. And it was so graciously done with warm hugs when she left. It is one of those moments where mere words can never be enough. It really made me get on my knees yesterday and thanked God for all the wonderful things he brings into our lives, even when we feel at times things just wont look up. I mentally and spiritually hugged that loving Man!
I am so glad that I am child of His and that my family and I are so loved!
