Random Thoughts

Madison's two front teeth are loose!

We own a baby grand piano.  Baby doesn't mean small, well in comparison to other grander pianos.  This is not a new item in our home just one that is big.  Anyway...

Nathan says things wrong which is hilarious or he says stuff you just don't expect like "mmmm this is dewishious (delicious)."  Always good for a laugh.  

Alexandra is in the 95 percentile for her weight and height.  The Dr. said if this rate of growth continues she could be taller than Mark, he is 6 feet tall. 

Changes in Latitude,  changes in attitude nothing remains quite the same. That is all I have to say about that.  

Christmas cards are NOT keeping my mind off things.  

Alex is going to have to get a job to buy food.  She must say to me 10 times a day " I'm hungry." I will write down everything she eats tomorrow and blog it for you.  Prepare to be amazed. 

I want a craft room.  Mark's Aunt and Uncle are coming over tomorrow for dinner and I have to clean up the Christmas card workshop.  One reason I wish for a craft room and that darn CK magazine I get every month.  When will that subscription expire?  The devil must be paying for my renewal.

It is almost Thanksgiving and people are calling about Christmas ideas?  When did November start?  What year is it? What day is it? Everyone might be getting a homemade Christmas card for a present at this rate.  

The economy stinks (as if you didn't know).  If you get a monthly statement for 401k or IRA just leave it in the envelope and file it away.  No need to look.  Trust me!  I told Mark last month just file next month in the drawer and he opened it.  Then I had to hear about it.  I told him not to look.  Last month was hard for me and then he had to go and tell me about this month.  LONG TERM. We retire in about 30 years.  That sounds bad too.  Okay next...

My mom is moving to Jacksonville in two weeks.  Yeah, not sure how I will handle it but I seem to be fine for now except for the chest pain. Did someone say stress?  This topic is even worse than the economy. Moving on...

Ha! That is funny, moving on.  That is all I have to say about that too.

Your random thoughts looks and sounds like my "to-do list." I was getting so anxious over all I had to do the other day that I had to put it on paper just so that I could manage what was going on in my head!

2 AM Musings

I have been wide awake since before 2 AM. Wide eyed and well, not so bushy tailed. This is the second day in a row. Why?  No really, why? This is the second day in a row my brain refuses to turn off for longer than a few hours. It's like half my brain wants to party and the logical side knows this is not a good thing.    As a mom of three on the first day of a new school year I am sitting in the family room in the dark thinking of all the things I can't do right now. I am also lamenting summer. Today summer break officially ends. At least I am up in time to get the kids to school.   I am not excited for today. It has a few milestones that we can not put off. I will not drive to the elementary school for the first time in eight years. I will be dropping my youngest off at middle school and my oldest at the high school. Also the middle child decided to go back to school so I will not be homeschooling this year.   In a few hours my kids will wake up and ...

Low Expectations

Mark and I took the kids a couple of years ago to Orlando for a weekend.  Nathan was less than a year old, Alexandra must have just turned 2 and Madison was 4.  I look back and laugh but at the time it was anything but funny.  A trip to Disney would be fun and relaxing right?  HA!  We never even made it to Disney because Madison was so ornery the day we were going to go I couldn't justify going.  We learned a lot about being parents of three young kids that weekend.   During our stay we took the kids to the Rainforest Cafe.  Nathan was terrified the whole meal and after our $75 lunch Madison threw up all over the table and floor.  That is when Mark made the rule we don't take the kids to a restaurant unless it has a drive thru, curbside doesn't count.  We really do stick to that rule and the only sit down "nice" restaurant we go to with the kids is Sonny's BBQ.  Before we left I wanted to get the kids a little something from the Disney Marketplace.  I took the...

Happy New Year!

Happy Anniversary to my parents that got married today many moons ago. Congratulations for over 30 years of marital bliss.   Updates... I know why you should have a realtor.  Too many emotions.  The people that looked out our house put it in their top 3 choices and today they go back to their other 2 choices.  We will see what happens.  I feel a low offer coming our way, if we get an offer at all.     Do you know how much work it is to keep a house walk thru ready?  I feel like we worked all day to get out for an hour and then we came home and trashed the place.     Tomungus, Nathan's new word.  What it means I'm not quite sure, but he thinks it is funny.  He says humongous and ginormous a lot so I think he just said one wrong.   The veggie garden is growing wild. We have tiny tomatoes, squash, zucchini and broccoli. I kinda hope we can get some veggie before we move.  If not I will have to start another garden the kids love it and it keeps them busy watering it.  Playing in  w...
