ramblings & confessions.

  1. i woke up at 730 this morning for no reason at all. read a few chapters. threw in a load of laundry. this kinda feels good.
  2. i wish i liked coffee.
  3. i hate the grocery store. & the bank. & getting gas. basically, the few duties a "domesticated" stay at home mom is supposed to enjoy, i dread doing & put off until the very last second.
  4. i have a terrible memory. borderline scary. it got me through college, but after that, decided to take a vacation. i hope it comes back again soon.
  5. sometimes i want to delete my blog & fb all together so i can be mysterious again & nobody knows my business. but then i remember why i blog in the first place. because of my terrible memory & so my girls can remember their lives one day. i don't have a good excuse for fb, except for the fact that it's become a horrible addiction & i need to join a support group.
  6. i am not a jealous person at all. i don't know if that's a blessing or a curse. sometimes it comes off like i don't care, or that i'm snooty, but really i do. confused? me too.
  7. i just discovered yellow bell peppers. cold & raw. i think i'm addicted.
  8. it just took me 2 whole minutes to remember what bell peppers are called. lame.
  9. my girls & i have a new tradition at night & it's my very favorite time of the whole day. they get in bed & i lay on them as they wrap both their arms around my neck. they laugh & laugh as we talk about their day. they won't let me go & i have to squeeze out of their grip.
  10. i secretly don't want them to let me go because i hate that they're growing up so fast. each night that passes, only means that they're one day older & bigger & that means that one day soon they won't wanna hold my neck anymore as they giggle themselves to sleep (or so everyone says). maybe when they're 16, they'll still hold on tight. i sure hope all those everyone's are wrong.
  11. i am so sick of looking at my blog header, but i have no creative juice left to make a new one. maybe my creativity left with my memory?
  12. tonight we get to go to disneyland & then i'm meeting my mom at some random swanky hotel so we can stay the night for the last hoorah before her summer officially ends. i'm excited.
  13. i'm craving meatloaf & its only 845.
that is all.

who says stay at home "domesticated" women have to like the store and the bank and getting gas?! I hate them too! I always ask Adam to do all three when he gets home from work or I just put them off to the weekend when he can come with me :)

Yellow Bell Peppers are my favorite too!
