- Work has been busy as all get out for me recently. My job has changed and so has how I am able to spend my days. (There is a lot less time to sneak in a blog these days.)
- My husband dislocated his kneecap at his softball game a week ago. He was lucky and was able to pop it right back into place (Ouch with a capital O) but he is in for a long recovery. I have been having to drive him everywhere, and pretty much wait on him since it happened. Not that I am complaining...well maybe I am complaining a little but I am sure he will make it up to me when he heals. I have the whole filling the ice pack down and can do it in my sleep...because at least once I have. Also, have you every noticed that you can shake out 3 Motrin from a bottle, or 5 Motrin from a bottle, but never four? He is on 800mg for the pain and I have yet been able to get the four pills out in one try.
- We took a trip to my in-laws over the Fourth of July weekend. It was a little bit of a dud weekend due to Chris and his injury, but I was able to take a long ride on the trail wagon with my sister-in-law. It was the first time I took it off their property, and I am happy to report that I hold the current speed record for getting it to go the fastest at 20.1 MPH.
- I am super into crafting recently and will be showing you some of my new creations soon. Well as soon as I start them. I have the materials but I just need the time to get started.
- My friend and I went to see Eclipse on Thursday. I had to get my husband and son a babysitter so I could go. Chris isn't yet able to care of Ian without help, so that was interesting. I called my husbands friend was it was really embarrassing to ask him to babysit my husband so I could go see a movie that I am sure he thought was dorky. I don't really care though because I got to go after all.
- I almost got to go to the drive-in movies with my husband this weekend, but he would have had to sit in the back seat by himself because he can't really bend his knee yet. What fun would it be if we couldn't at least sit next to each other...at the drive-in! Maybe next time.
- Finally the day has come when I was able to get a smart phone! I got the HTC Hero from Alltel and I am in love with it. (Shhh...I might be having a little affair with it, don't tell Chris. Hi Honey!) I am just so happy to finally be able to have my calendar with me every where I go, and to be able to take pictures and post them online at a moments notice. Oh and...Twitter. I am officially over the edge hooked and I don't care because I have a smart phone.
- My garden is growing. I already got a whole four green beans with more growing, and there were tiny buds of bell pepper and a small zucchini that I am nursing along. I think that I can call this starter garden a success!
- The weight loss challenge...oh what a failure it has been. If we kept the original terms Chris would have won. (boo hiss) Since we extending it to the end of June, and then Chris got hurt and was in the hospital losing too much weight because of that, we called it off because it wouldn't be a fair comparison. We are going to try again soon. Until then I am going to keep on keeping on trying to exercise more and eat less. Five pounds down and I want to keep that number growing and hopefully me shrinking.
- My son is shocking me with the words he knows now. I still can't get over that he is using small sentences and phrases like: "Is it on?" "I want down." "Oh no!" Now with his new hair cut he looks way too big and I am not sure I am ready for that.
One of my favorite blogs, The State That I Am In, recently posted a call out for reader requests for what they would like to see from her life. I thought that this was such a cool idea that I am going to institute it on my blog as well. Thanks Erin for the great idea! So what do you want to see? My freezer? Medicine cabinet? The junk drawer? You ask, and if it isn't obscene, I will post a picture just for you. Ready? Go!
