The return of...

Thad! Remember him? I pinched his butt in kindergarten & got in trouble. Anyway, fast forward lets say...29 years. I'm out to dinner with the ladies & we decided to hit up the local taverns for a couple of after dinner brewskys. I walk in the door & there he sits at the bar with 2 other of the small town cronies. Now remember I'm not in the Northwoods anymore. I'm in the big city. And as I live & breathe it's Thad, looking the same, but 29 years older. I walk over give the guys big hugs & chat for a bit. I leave them to rejoin the ladies who all think I'm hitting up the men to get free drinks.

As I sit & talk to the ladies laughing & having a good time, I finally tell them that one of the guys is Thad & we giggle & laugh like a bunch of school girls. It was a great night. Thanks girls for letting me share with you some of my fond memories. Oh yeah, Sister Golden Hair Rocks!!

Slacker

Yes, I know I suck at this. Just trying to get my head out of my a$$ & enjoy the simple things in life. Sometimes this blogging & Face booking seem like work. I know weird, but haven't been enjoying it as much as I used to so I thought I'd back off for awhile. So I've been reading, napping, just chilling & I have to admit. I'm lovin' it. So I'll get back to chilling & let you know how the simple life is going again soon. Oh yeah...Keith Urban will be calling my name in 5 days!!

whatever!

So yeah, this blog thing not getting my creative juices a flowing. Now I thought I'd have lots of things to write about & maybe I do but it just hasn't come to me yet. I don't know. If you don't like it too bad. Just look at my header & that explains everything. I'm just so wrapped up in everday doings & it sucks. I cannot figure out what I should do first. Should I blog, facebook, read, do laundry, dust, soduko, take a nap. So many choices to choose from & NOT ENOUGH TIME!! And here I think to myself that I really need to start a hobby that I can really get creative with. Scrapbooking was brought to my attention, maybe I would love it, but I don't think I could juggle it. Definitely need to remember all those trainings I had at the Y about time management. Ummmm, yeah right! Whatever! So I guess I'll just go about my day, doing, whatever, whenever, however I want. How do you like me now!?

Is it my contacts?

There are just days that I seem to be utterly exhausted. And the exhaustion seems to really be in my eyes, but I feel tired. Does that make sense. And I've been thinking about it & it seems that this exhaustion happens on the days that I wear my contacts all day. Weird, or am I on to something? Is it even possible that the contacts could be making my eyes so very tired? I don't know. After I took my contacts out & put my glasses on, I seem fine. Tired, but not the exhaustion that I felt earlier. Just thought I'd throw this thought out there. If anyone has any input or is an opthamoligist (eye person) can't spell it, let me know what ya think would ya!

Outer Limits

Had a brief visit to the north woods this past weekend. And it took me past an old hangout of mine back in high school. Outer Limits, a non-alcoholic club for us teens. Unfortunately we had to drive 30 minutes to get there & we had a tendency to drink a bottle of Dr's on the way there. We would arrive all dressed up to impress the older guys, 18 & 19 year olds. I was known as a pretty good dancer & almost got into a fight or two with a group of black women who thought I was making fun of them. Only they found out that this white woman could dance! Then it was all good.

I have many fond & not so fond memories of Outer Limits. Found my first true love there when I was just 15, he was 19, but we dated for almost 4 months. I was devestated when we broke up. He started dating a girl named Emily & I tried so hard to do my hair like her, so he would want to go out with me again. How lame was I? He wrote me a beautiful poem, gave me a stuffed frog & a necklace as a Christmas gift. Awwww, how sweet.

It's so funny how you can drive by somewhere or see something & be totally transformed back to that time. I totally felt like I was 15 again, except I'm 34, I was going to visit my uncle in the nursing home & I wasn't drunk off a bottle of Dr's! Ahhh the good ol' days!

I forgot...

I forgot how relaxing it can be to cook yourself in a tanning bed. Ahhhh, total relaxation for 10 minutes! I also forgot how the ginormous mirrors show all imperfections. Thanks to my beautiful girls I have many of them:)

Absent

So my intention for this whole blogging business was to get some things off my mind, when they're there. However, as the title of my blog states, I'm a Mom & you know how that is. Stuff comes up, you don't have time, yadda, yadda, yadda! Since my last post I've had lots of things I wanted to say, unfortunately, I now forgot what they were. Life has been just a little up & down lately.

The girls & I took a trip to the Northwoods to visit the family, which resulted in, not much sleep, a trip to the emergency room & way too much eating! I am also one year older since my last post, but let me tell you nothing too exciting in the ways of celebration. Pat's step-Grandfather passed away, so there was a funeral, I was utterly exhausted from the lack of sleep the night before & was in bed by 7 o'clock. Wahoo-Happy Birthday Baby!

I've had some weird dreams, one that involved someone named Jemma, a murder, and another that involved a tornado, my parents & Hayden. Would go into more detail, but that's all I can remember at this time. Once again, read the title of the blog.

Life is really sucky right now. I need a new attitude, some exercise & a little bit more spunk! I'll work on it when I have time. But I have to make time if I want a change. But when you're butt-assed tired it's a little hard to wake up in good spirits & attempt to work on those rock hard abs! Only if the weather around here will finally turn to spring. That might help. At least I could go for a walk! Well here's my first step "Don't put off tomorrow, what you can do today." Ta Ta! Have a FAN-TAB-U-LOUS day everyone:)
