Anybody Out There?

Does anyone really read my blog? If you do send me a shout out just so I know that my efforts are not completely in vain. Hopefully, if you do read my blog you find some sort of entertainment in it. Also if I do find that people read it I will be more apt to post more often. If no one (except for my #1 faithful reader...my mom) I may stop this self indulgent insight into my life since it really only is me who is paying attention. So is anyone out there?

House of Sick-os

The kids have been sick for over a week now. We took them to the doctor yesterday. They both have some form of RSV and Aiden has an ear infection on top of that. Fun...fun!! Anytime we take the kids into the doctor they always have something strange and out of the ordinary. Aiden has had herpegenia (small ulcers in the back of the throat caused by playing at the germ tree at the mall) and croup (from sunday school or chic-fil-a playground). Lillie was really sick a few months ago that resulted in nothing more than a blood culture that came back fine. And now RSV. How come my kids don't just come down with a simple cold? No they have to be over achievers in even being sick. I can't wait until they start feeling better and Justin too for that matter. He has come down with a cold too. I have a sore throat and cough that developed over night. I guess we will all be sick before it is over with. Well wish us luck in the next few days...we are starting to get a little delirious from the lack of sleep at night.

First Year of my Late 20s

Today is the blessed day that I chose to come into this wonderful world. Granted this grand event occurred 27 years ago. I have been slightly depressed about turning 27 for about a month now. I recall when I was younger, maybe 19 or so, and hearing people saying they were 27 and thinking "Man they are kinda old and not really cool anymore." For some reason saying that I am 26 sounded so much younger than 27. I have some friends that are older than me...well quite a bit older 15-25 years. And they cringe everytime I said that I was upset about turning 27. They would laugh and snicker. But I guaran-damn-tee you that they felt the same way when they were turning 27.

Today was a "so so" day. Hell is freezing over here in Texas. So we have not done much of anything the past two days. It's been too freaking cold. My sisters threw me a party on Sunday night. It was fun and it "hit" the spot for this depressing, dreaded day. And last Friday night I went out with coworkers to our fav place TUTS...Theatre under the stars as Patti calls it. Oh and I got a present from my body...I gained a pound over the weekend. I have lost 5 and one decided that it didnt like the "other side" and wanted to come back. CRAP now I have to go Nicole Ritchie for the next few days to lose it so I don't have to pay my dollar to the Biggest Loser fund.

There were some really great things about my birthday that I cannot forget to mention...pink roses from my hubby, pink UT shirt from my friend, workout clothes from Mel, candle bracelet and game from Dena, sweet figurine from mom and dad, and the best of all gift...Complete Series of Sex and the City!!! My hubs is the best!!!

2007 Solutions

I looked up the definition of resolution. Out of the several listed I found this one to fit how I think resolution fits into my life "finding a solution to a problem" That got me to thinking that supposedly I need to analyze the problems in my life and find a solution. So here is my attempt at this problem solving.
Problem #1: I'm FAT.
Solution: Lose 25-30 pounds and exercise daily.
Problem #2: I'm addicted to Myspace.
Solution: Form a Myspaceaholic Support Group...no not really just limit my usage to once or twice a day
P roblem #3: I drink too my diet sodas.
Solution: Drink more water plus I just read that drinking diet soda doubles your chances of being obese.
Problem #4: I'm not a very good cook
Solution: Spend more time cooking and reading about cooking. Remember the way to a man's heart is through his stomach.
Problem #5: Turning 27 ...dammit no solution
