3 days off and a lot of nothing accomplished!

So, I had a three-day weekend....and it was fabulous!

Friday we did our usual errands, then went to my sister-in-law's for dinner and some Wii (too much fun!!....want one so bad now!) and then I didn't leave my house until I had to come to work today! Glorious!

Yes, I'm lazy....and I love it!! I did manage to make a pot of chili and a pan of cornbread! Mmmmm....chili!! Delicious! So many beans; so wonderful!

Sunday was so cool....Rob & Nickle came over for a bit....then I got to enjoy in my family's new Sunday tradition.....Jay and Diana curled up on the couch with their bowls of popcorn and watching the new Batman cartoon. Oh, and don't forget Batman bear! And Hesh was in there too. What a family of nerds! :)

Ah, but Monday, had to go back to work....no fun! lol

Hooray!!! New President and New Season of LOST!


What an awesome week, honestly!

I was enthralled by the Inauguration yesterday, even sitting at my desk and reading the text of President Obama's speech. And I'm not a fan of reading!!

And today, it's the premiere of Lost! yay!! I changed my desktop to the cast of Lost! I'm way too excited and counting down til I can go home and watch it!

Wow....it's rough being a nerd!!

Good Luck and God Bless, President Obama!!

dumb customers

Man, I love dumb customers. 

Dumb customers = job security

Yes, Mr Customer....you are an idiot. 

But, you just keep calling me with your stupid questions and I'll answer with a sorta-smile.


Oh, and no pumpkin bread yet :( I'm lazy!

My baby is sick :(

Yes, my baby was sick today. Poor kid woke up with a swollen eye. I'm not a panicky kind of mom, but I had to get her to the doctor for this....didn't want to mess with her eyesight. 

We saw the doctor and Diana has a double ear infection. Poor baby :( She wasn't tugging at her ear (or her eye...can you tug an eye? whatever...) and she didn't even seem sick.

She's not a huge fan of medicine....so I bribed her with some Smarties. Mom of the Year, I tell ya!

Hopefully she'll be better soon! 

Oh, and I didn't make that pumpkin bread yet either! hahaha!

Sunday, January 11, 2009

Yea, never did get around to baking yesterday :( .....now I'll have to make the pumpkin bread tonight, as I've promised it to my boss for Monday. Oh, why do I make promises?

Didn't really do much of anything yesterday, just hung out with the kid. She really is awesome. She's at an age where she can do a lot of things for herself, so she just goes to the computer, clicks on her bookmarks and starts playing her games (nick jr, pbs kids....stuff like that)

Jay came home from work and then we made tacos for dinner.....yummy, overstuffed tacos with refried beans, taco meat, salsa, sour cream and shredded cheddar. The stand-up kind of shells, so they hold a LOT more. And, we shoveled them down while watching "The Biggest Loser" ....yea, that's what I do, eat til I'm beyond full watching TBL, then cry my eyes out because these people are making great changes in their lives and I'm so happy for them. I'm such a nerd!

But, speaking of TBL and making changes, I have to do something! My 20-year high school reunion is coming up this year and I really don't want to waddle into the party. Ugh!

Enough with the sadness....on to happy news.....um, happy....yea....happy.....

It's Sunday....so that means 5 more days til my next day off!! And, I have baking to do tonight!! I love baking!! :D

First post, hopefully of many

Yup, I'm gonna blog too.

Not sure what to blog about though...

Food? I love food! I love to cook, bake, eat. Food is awesome...and my enemy :( Makes me fat :( Stoopid food. lol

Work? I love my job....sometimes. I love the people I work with, that's for sure. But, it's called "work" for a reason, so it's not all fun and games. It's a lot of fun and games, but not all fun and games.

Family? I love my family. My husband is the best husband in the world. I'm not just writing that because he might read it....it's the truth! And he's the best Daddy ever! I've never seen a more hands-on dad. Maybe it helps that we have the cutest kid ever! lol My daughter is awesome. She's 3 1/2 and just so smart and beautiful. I see the whole world as her oyster. Nobody can resist her charm! It's true! I'm not saying that she's the best kid in the world...she's still the typical 3 year old with her own ideas that don't necessarily match mine....we're two of the most stubborn people you'll meet. Makes for some fun mommy-daughter time, I tell you what!

I think that's all for now....I should be baking some pumpkin bread, maybe thinking of something to make for lunch or dinner. Maybe play with the kid for a bit. But, I should not be sitting on the computer for the day. Bets on how much I get done?? hahaha
