Shortie


This really will be a short post, unlike my last so-called short post that was hugely long. I do excel at rambling though.....

Just some random thoughts...

Superman Returns is not a good movie. In fact it might be awful (I am watching the tail end of it right now...not good)

M makes homemade Tzatziki and it is awesome.

I held a coworker's little teeny baby today and now have babies on the mind even though V isn't even a year old. Man!

I sometimes call V 'Chewie', and the dog (who is actually Chewie) V, and now completely understand why my Mum used to call my sister and I by each other's names.

I ran 4 miles yesterday, my personal best since giving birth, and am mentally planning my 'comeback' 5 k.

The idea of a 'RoastBurger' from Arby's makes me want to heave....

We saw a sign for a Clown Museum on a recent drive and, even though I hate clowns (especially Mimes) I still kinda want to go.

I miss my sister an awful lot, and wish she lived in the States instead of Canada.... next-door to me if possible...

My Grandma's health is really not the greatest at the moment and I pretty much think my Dad is going to call at any moment and give me 'The bad news'.....sigh....

We are heading to Canada in about 10 weeks, and I still haven't sorted out V's passport. Or mine. Or M's.

This week I am really really tired.

Excessive use of CGI annoys me to no end.

I can't stand it when live animals in films have their mouths altered to look like they are speaking.... stupid, I know, but it makes me so angry!

I am totally addicted to Facebook, which is very sad.

I need to go to bed now. I have had enough of Superman Returns and my dog is snoozing on my feet, a clear sign I should be cuddling with him (oh, and M of course) in bed. Our new King-size bed I might add..... that I am going to crawl to as I am so very very very tired

Friday night(s)

Thankfully it's Saturday.
I am pretty sure that this is the best day of the week.
Currently Friday is the worst, which is odd since it is usually considered the numero uno most awesome day of the week.
Unfortunately for my husband, its not his favorite since he goes from teaching straight to Disney, where he serves in a fancy-smancy restaurant Friday and Saturday nights. So Friday is his worst as its the longest day of his whole week. And it certainly feels like the longest for me too. I rush from work straight home to walk the dog (who is desperately waiting for someone to take him out), and then change quickly and off to my in-laws who are oh-so-nice and pick up V from daycare. And I visit with them, and then head back home to feed the darling boy and try and pay some attention to the poor dog. Poor dog who was so recently the number one child in our family and has now been demoted to a very low 2 (poor thing).

Perhaps I should start at the beginning of the day when I am up around 4 or 5, depending on the day. Or sometimes 3:30.... that doesn't just apply to Fridays though, its everyday. Even when M gets up with him, I still wake up. I think that just goes with the mummy territory though
Friday nights when I have put V to bed and am unwinding by washing a million baby bottles are so nice. Even with the never-ending washing. Really its just the thought of 2 straight uninterrupted days with my darling son that makes it so wonderful.

This weekend is even better!
Not only is it Thanksgiving (for us Canadians that is...) but I took Monday off.
Tomorrow I am attempting to cook dinner for my family (which hopefully will be edible), and Monday I have an extra day with Captain Adorable. Which will be wonderful even though he is going to the doctor AND getting shots. I am dying of curiosity to find out how much he weighs. Currently he is a huge sac-o-potatoes...

must sleep in preparation for monster dinner tomorrow...
