With all the craziness of the past week and a half, I havent been on here much. Today I actaully got up and took a shower BEFORE the kids got up, and now I have a second to do this without interuptions...for about 3 seconds until Andy comes down here. (Seriously...I was kidding, but his door just opened up- freaky!!!)
Ok...now that I got him off to school, I can finish writing this :)
I didnt make a new years resolution this year... just like I every other year. I am not the resolution kind of person. I always have something going on that I would like to change, and when I do, I do it then. So, I guess for me, I have a new resolution once a week or so :) Or however long it takes for the first one to get taken care of anyway!
I STILL didnt get my moms blanket done. I am getting so close though. There are always little kinks that show up that I dont expect and it takes longer than I planned. I will post a picture when its done though!!! I am so excited to see her face when she opens it. I need to hurry and get it done to clear my Grandma's name with my mom :) Hehe. My Grandma went up to the Dr.'s office to get the signature for the blanket from them when they got it done. I happened to be on the phone with my mom at the time grandma went get it for me. Then my mom said she had to call the office to confirm an appt. for later in the week... but I didnt know my Grandma was just there at the time. When my mom called me back a minute later, she sounded all confused and said that the receptionist just told her, "Oh, Becky, your Mom was just here. She brought fudge and a picture to show us." So now my mom is getting curious about why her family members are visiting HER doctors office when she is not around! I better hurry :)
We got the paint up in my scrapbook room last night. I am getting tired from these 1:00 am bedtimes :) But it will be SO worth it in the end! The night that we primed the walls, we let Andy and Justin help us. It was so sweet. They did a pretty good job too! (If we were painiting the floor, anyway! But that is ok- because it is still concrete for a few more days so there was no carpet to worry about) I am so excited about the color in there. I smile everytime I see it. It is kind of like my Fiesta Ware. I didnt pick just one color, I picked out the whole fricking rainbow of colors!! So when I open my cupboards, I smile because the colors are so cheerful. Yes...I am easily pleased- ok. That is how my scrapbook room, (which I have named "Memory Lane") makes me feel when I walk in there now. I just smile and feel all fluttery like a little girl again. I want to squeal and jump up and down! I cant wait! Once we get the cabinets in there and get it done, I will put a picture on here. Last night while me and Jake were painting my "Bachmans purple" paint on the walls, I looked at him working so hard to paint such a girly color for me. I laughed and told him, "Thanks for helping me paint such a girly color in here" He looked at me, raised his voice an octive and said, "There is nothing wrong with this color...it is just FABULOUS" Haha...I was trying not to roll on the floor laughing- because that was really funny. It caught me so off guard and I was not expecting that response :) The guy knows how to make me laugh- thats for sure ;)
Well...enought jibber jabber for now. I am off to go pick from a list of about 50 different things to try to get done. I think I will pick "Sit on the couch and watch Go,Diego,Go! with Justin" right now. I am LAZY and dont want to get in the middle of a project and to end up needing to stop for some reason or another!
