Hot Yoga

I went to Yoga today. Hot Yoga. It has been four years and two kids since I have been to hot yoga.

Loved it. Did better than I expected. We’ll see how I feel tomorrow. I get a week for free so I hope to get back at some point. We shall see if that works out as planned.

I have had the worst day ever. I have cried at the drop of a hat, screamed at my husband for no reason, completely lost it and had a total melt down because I dropped a cup of coffee. Couldn’t figure out what was wrong. About to check myself into some sort of facility because I thought my screw had finally fallen out.

Then at about 9 pm, I realized what was wrong. It is the 15th. Ugh. They are going to be hard for months to come. After about an hour of crying, I will probably get some sleep. At least I can explain crazy for the day.

Time suck

In an effort to cut some expenses, I called the cable company yesterday to see if we could lower our bill. Boy howdy, did I score. The guy told me that for $30 less a month we can rework to a new package that includes…drum roll please….HBO and Starz. He also saved us an additional $14/month by entering in a coupon code that waives our DVR monthly fee. I guess we were really getting hosed before but the yelps of joy from my husband made that negative thought pass. I have never seen a man happier than when the girls feel asleep EARLY last night and we got to watch TWO movies. His prayers have been answered.

Hello, nothing ever getting done in my house again.

spam

So, explain something to me. What does a spammer get out of leaving a jumbled comment on a blog? I don’t understand it. No promises of cheap drugs or longer body parts to lure people in to clicking. Just a jumbled mess of stuff. I do not get what is in it for the spammer. Why waste time? What is the benefit?

Still sort of sick but definitely better than yesterday. Looking forward to tomorrow when I should be all done with the sickness.

Tummy time

previous — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 20:19:42 +0000

Okay, I am sick. Have some sort of stomach bug. Feel awful. Had to cancel interview. Sick, sick, sick.

sitting up is not good for my tummy and this is all there is today. You’re welcome.

Economic stimulus package

previous — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 04:54:43 +0000

I have two big job interviews tomorrow and Thursday and am spending time preparing. Both are awesome jobs. I will probably get an offer for both positions. How is that for self confidence? Actually, I have none. I am just wired at both places.

Truthfully, I don’t want to get a job. I am hoping Congress reconvenes and issues an economic stimulus package for lazy asses like me. Those who actually could be working right now and aren’t. Worst economic downturn of my lifetime and I sit around surfing the internets when people can’t afford to feed their family. Burn in hell, I tell you. I really wish I could keep this up for about five more years. Then I might actually cross something off my list.

I am a lucky girl.

trying, I promise

I had grand hopes of how I would make time to put together some really great posts during NaBlogPoMo. Not happening, is it?

Today has been spent washing clothes. Lots of them. Washing bedding. Lots of it. Some of it with purple goldfish on it. Half digested purple goldfish. Seriously, at what point do they have to stop calling something a goldfish that isn’t? Goldfish aren’t purple and never again does my child need to digest aforementioned purple goldfish. It just isn’t natural.

TTFN

Sick

previous — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 23:22:15 +0000

Barely making it today because my oldest is sick. Just hoping it was the bag of purple goldfish she devoured for dinner and not a real bug. I am not sure I have the disposition for a four person stomach virus.

I have been jobless for close to two months. I made a list of things I wanted to accomplish during my time off when I made the decision to leave my job. Here it is.

Organize digital photos. I have thousands of photos on two different computers that are in no particular order.
Create photo albums. Of those thousands of photos, I have printed out about 50 copies.
Learn a photo editing program. My photography requires editing.
Build my photography skills. I have a fancy camera and I need to learn to use it more effectively.
Organize the girls’ toys. We have tons of toys that go untouched and I want to clear out our stash.
Create a fun play space for them. I think if they have a more organized and appealing play space, they will play on their own more.
Crochet a gift for XYZ’s baby boy. I have a friend who is like Martha Stewart. I got tons of handmade treasures and home cooked meals when my second was born. Her baby was born a month ago. I have given lots of gifts and delivered food but all has been store bought.
Get a sewing machine that works. I want to learn to sew again. I have high hopes for making things.
Start sewing dolls. See above comment regarding high hopes.
Start exercising. I was good for about two weeks and haven’t exercised a day in the last month. My Wii Fit is going to scream at me. I scream when I get on a scale.
Clean out garage. Winter is here and we need our garage back but it is full and so is our house.
Get book shelves. If we have book shelves, we will have a place to put things that are in the boxes in the garage.

Not one thing has been accomplished. Lame o.
