What I WANT to be doing...

I want to be reading blogs.
I want to be scrolling though your wonderful thoughts and the funny things that are going on with you.
I want to be changing my CHRISTMAS layout and taking the voting poll for the Christmas cards that never went out.
I want to blog about the reason my Christmas cards never went out - anti-climactic to say the least.


But...
I have to pay bills and check important emails in my 15 minutes on my dad's pc.
Somehow we MUST get a new computer soon...

Here Goes Nuthin'

It has been so long since I posted ANYTHING that I cannot even begin to begin...

So much has happened. Then again nothing really has happened. You know what I mean, right?

KJ's preggers!!! I didn't even get to start that rumor. Man! Where's the justice in that?
I know you'll make a terrific mom - not to mention what a "momshell" you'll be! Congrats!

I am no longer the proud owner of a 1999 Ford Windstar, or the Star ship Enterprise (as my husband referred to it) I have now been inducted into this century and millennium as the owner of a 2008 Jeep Liberty!! Ye haw!

My little girl is an official ballerina in training - I cannot tell you how cute that is! She is also a flower girl in training. She's going to be a flower girl in my brother's wedding. She experienced a slight setback in the beauty department this week when her nose was apparently broken after a wagon handle flew back into the bridge of her nose. She kinda resembled a Klingon with bright plum eyeshadow on both eyes for most of the week. Poor little beauty.

Jaron is now in love with all things Star Wars. And will be shaking things up as the ring bearer at my brother's wedding. He is reading lots and has very wiggly teeth. He has the knobbiest knees accentuated by his uber long legs. Officially not a baby anymore. Officially a wiry, snaggle-toothed kid with limitless potential and some very adorable dimples.

And I, for the first time in my life, have been asked to be a matron. I was gonna say bride's maid but I am married so I guess that makes me a bride's matron Who knows?

Our holidays went well - and unlike the majority of my friends with children, we were relatively healthy. We only had a tummy bug, which is much better than last year's ER/pneumonia/flu debacle. Everyone appeared to be delighted with everything the holidays held, and I for one was thrilled to have the time off.

I vegged. I drank whole pots of coffee. I 90% remodeled my bathroom. I snacked my brains out.
Good times.

Chris is working more now than ever it seems. It could be all the vacations his co-workers try to take this time of year - but I am married to a man whose face I feel I might no longer recognize in the daylight as we are, sigh - two ships that pass in the night. (Her hand daintily fans her forehead as she wilts with emotional anguish...) This too shall pass. Perhaps sooner rather than later. Only God Knows for sure.

I guess that's it. I still have no computer. I am on my dad's. So intermittently I will attempt blog checking.

I want to get something together for Wendy in the way of a baby shower. Because it's her third I was thinking it could be a giftcard shower so she could get EXACTLY what she wants/needs. Whaddaya think?
