So I decided to surprise D with one of his favorite dinners: homemade chicken pot pie. I ended up getting turkey breast because the grocery store by my house really sucks, but is convenient. So I get everything started and in the oven. I had peeled potatoes and trimmed the turkey breasts and threw everything [...]

Well it hasn’t been too exciting around our house lately. We spend the entire day Sunday lounging around and being lazy. Oh, it was wonderful. However, yesterday the cleaning bug bit me and I couldn’t stop. I literally cleaned, scrubbed, swept, mopped, and did laundry….for about 4 1/2 hours. D asked me – what the [...]

So I told D to go and have a guys night tonight… and I would take care of Baby Girl. He deserves it, he’s been so wonderful lately, and I have been pretty bitchy. So he went out with the guys and I went to a “Music in the Metroparks” concert at the local beach [...]

I am getting the receptionist at my work fired! I know that sounds completely horrible. I never in my life thought I would be a person to get someone fired. But it has to be done for the sake of my SANITY…. and really everyone elses in the office. She’s young, one year out of [...]

Baby Girl is teething. Again. She is crabby and miserable and doesnt want to eat. And the most wonderful part is that she is not sleeping well. I was up a few times last night, so getting out of bed this morning was rough.
So Ive been thinking a lot about having a second child. And [...]

I love wine nights with my best. No matter what kind of mood Im in, she always manages to make it better.
So she cooked dinner and I brought the wine, which were both delicious. And we got a chance to chat and catch up and just be us. We really dont do this [...]

A funny thing happened at the grocery store last night.
So after about an hour of asking, begging, and whining, I finally convinced D to go to the grocery store with me. I dont really like going alone if I dont have to. (Plus, he can be pretty picky sometimes). Anyways, so we fill our cart [...]
Interesting Weekend

Well… camping was interesting. I never once threw my hands up and declared “i hate camping”. So I take that as a good sign. I kept a good mood even though we were eaten alive by mosquitos and other bugs, and through the 2 hour downpour on Saturday. I never even said anything like – [...]

…that we head out on the camping adventure. We are pretty much all packed and ready. There are a few things that I need to have D get together for me, since I forgot them. But, I am pretty excited, and a little nervous. Excited because I havent been camping in like 13 years, and [...]

Some days I really feel like I am just completely lost. Its like Im floating along in a vast ocean by myself waiting for someone to come and rescue me. Today is one of those days. I woke up this morning in a piss-poor mood dreading the thought of going to the office. But I [...]
