TGIF

i say it a lot but YAHOO for friday! I couldn't concentrate the last hour of work just anticipating not having to go to work on saturday. LOL... i wish sometimes i didn't have to work at all. It's not that i hate my job (i mean i do but it gives me some kind of satisfaction... *eg*) -- it's just that i dread it most days. I wish i could just work when i felt like it... and not do the parts of my job that suck. lmbo... dreamin, dreamin'.

no huge plans this weekend. when are there ever? i couldn't get my car to start after work so now i have to go back and jump it. it's like -30 and i just feel like curling up on the couch with some blankets and doing absolutely nothing. tchhaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

with meeting a bunch of teachers from other regional offices this past week, i got asked a lot whether or not this was my first baby. i kept saying, "nah, it's #3..." and people seemed surprised. I dunno why.... maybe i look young but i waddle like i've had a few. ;-)
Along the same lines, I started thinking about how close i am to having her and how i'm totally unprepared. I wouldn't say unprepared so much because i've been through this a few times, ya know? but damned if i have bought anything or even thought of what the game plan is. sucks but i keep telling myself that it's going to be okay because this isn't something totally new.

alright, i guess i better get my rear in gear and get something done about my car. weeeeeee!

already telling...

... the baby to settle down and she isn't even out of the womb! She's been moving about a lot lately and driving me nuts. must be all the caffeine i'm ingesting. hehehee

i'm so stinkin tired but i have too much stuff to do. i am sick of being tired. argh!

Kurt is wonderful... i don't know where that comment came from but sometimes i just have to thank the stars that he is so good to me. I mean... not always prince charming but i love him for so many reasons. who else would sit there and rub my back for half an hour while i fall asleep? who else would run up to the gas station to retrieve a 12pk of dr. pepper before he has to go to work and has only had 3 hours of sleep? who else asks me if i need anything everytime he is up? the man is good to me (for the most part ;-P)... now if he could just understand me emotionally! LOL

the dog is also driving me insane. She still isn't housebroken and gosh dang i'm sick of stepping in pee spots and picking up poop. the house is beginning to reek and i don't have the energy to steam clean the rugs every other day. once it warms up outside, i can start putting her outside for longer periods so that she can hopefully do her business out there. right now, i put her out for 5 minutes and she comes back inside and pees on the floor. lmbo

welllllllllll.... energy beginning to really dwindle. I have that restless leg syndrome now and can't hold still for more than a few minutes. the laptop + restless leg syndrome makes for some serious unfomfortableness. ;)

one more thing

the altered clipboard i made last night. i put it up on my desk at work.

rough day...

and i'm spent.

Just finished up some stuff in the store database and my middle finger hurts on my left hand. LOL! Not from flipping anything but I think I must've kinda sprained it typing or something. Darn QWERTY... feels like every other key is that painful middle finger! hehehe

Plopped out on the couch watching late night tv out of the corner of my eye. Not quite midnight but i have this urge to scrap or alter the box i was thinking about doing. It's a shame i don't have the energy to actually get up OFF the couch. Argh!

Orion is banned from video games for awhile I think. He was playing spongebob or something earlier for just a little while but he got so frustrated, that i made him turn it off. Then, two seconds later, he's in the kitchen doing his homework when he gets all grouchy and starts crying about not having an eraser! He was seriously distraught... LOL. So either the video games made him all touchy or maybe he was just tired. Ugh.

Okay, time to retire to my sleeping position and then switch positions 448 times in the next 6 hours....

The new year is already

slipping by.... *sigh* It's still hard to believe it's 2006.

Just sitting here thinking about how I never blog enough. Am I a failure or what? LOL It's 9:30 a.m. and I have all these things I want to accomplish today but in no hurry to get started as usual... you know the mentality.

Gia is here coloring in her coloring books, singing the craziest things. I have never experienced a child that never stopped singing. LOL she makes up crazy stuff. "mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, blah blah blah blah blah" and "flying up in the airplane high, la la la la la" all sung in the same tune. hehehe Orion is a talker but she is a singer. I better invest in some aspirin.

She also has figured out the "i'm sorry" card. When she does something wrong, she will say, "i'm sorry, mom..." in that sweet, sugary voice. "i won't do it again." I LOVE IT! Before all she needed was that sweet little face with a frown to get out of things but she started getting older and bigger and it wasn't working quite as well to get her out of trouble... she is adapting. Now comes the fun. LOL

I got Orion's report card yesterday and all of his grades have gone up. Yay! I know it's only first grade but it was cool to see the improvement. He had lots of *S*'s the first quarter and this quarter he had lots of *H+*'s and *S+*'s!!!! He is doing really well with his reading and I couldn't be prouder. Can you see me beaming? :)

Well, i'm gonna get going here i hope. maybe it'll be a productive saturday...
