Pimples!

I get the worst pimples. They get big but never form. Then I try to get them out and it's just a real mess. Totally disappointing.

The other night we were just talking about our favorite pimple. I like white heads and Shawna likes the explosive ones.

I read about how to get rid of whiteheads and it's really helped!

Now if I could just get rid of my wrinkles I'd be all set!

Hop on Pop!

Again!

Last night I read Emmy "Hop on Pop" and I was sure that she would love it like Graem. She thought it was okay. I told her that we had a video to go along with the book. She seemed interested.

So today I popped in the video.

She has absolutely NO interest and just wants to watch Wonder Pets.

It's so funny how these kids are so different!

Broken phone

So I'm just about done with my iphone. We went to the apple store the other day and they had me update thinking that it would fix the problem. Of course, it didn't.

We live 1 hour from an apple store and there's really no help in sight.

I've even thought about switching over to a blackberry phone. At least when or if it breaks down I can just take it to the local carrier and have it fixed in house instead of driving an hour each way!

The gym.

Well, I finally did it. I joined the gym! I've only been talking about it for 5 years or so now. Sunday I went and actually paid the fee and joined! Now I just have to wake up and go.

This morning I woke up due to my neighbors stupid ass broken car's muffler. I figured since I was up I might as well go to the gym and make something of my time.

Hopefully, I can drop some pounds and tone up a little bit!

If you're hooked...

You might as well look at the electronic cigarette wholesale!

I saw these in the mall a few weeks ago and they're charging a fortune for the electronic cigarettes.

I have a friend who uses these and it really helps with her past tobacco addiction. In fact, she's almost totally replaced her cigarette habit with the electronic cigarettes.

Not only is it saving her money but it's also saving her lungs!

Sickie.

This morning I was on the toilet and Margot was in the shower. All of a sudden Graem runs in and tells us that Emmy just puked. Of course, Margot and I tell each other our situation and I finished pooping and went to rescue Emmy.

Lord have mercy.

Now the girl is on the couch with the pukey bucket next to her watching a days worth of cartoons.

Poor kid.

We're getting older...

I keep wondering when we get older if we'll go back to boats and motorcycles. Being a parent really changes everything and there are things that I did in my early 20's that I wouldn't consider now because I just can't die!

Since everything in Texas is bigger there’s no shock that it can take you 30+ miles to go to work one way. Maybe people decide to go with a motorcycle due to the great weather and effeciency and affordability.

I’ve heard that finding a motorcycle accident attorney Austin can be hard to find and my friend mentioned going through - O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath – Personal Injury Lawyers – 808 West Avenue, Austin, TX. 78701 – 512-494-9949.

On the road again...

We've been looking at good vacation ideas. Our friends actually rented an RV for the summer and took their time going down to Florida. They had a great time. WE've thought that it would be incredible to go cross country and make our way to California.

I saw that they are offering some great deals on rv loans. The cost of renting an RV was really high and quite honestly if you have decide you want to do some long trips a few times a year then it just pays to buy your own!

Disney?

It was so nice to see my uncle and aunt over the weekend. We talked about an upcoming vacation to Orlando. They might be able to use their timeshare and get us a nice place. Then we want to do Disney!

The bad thing is I think we'll have to pull Graem out of school for a few days.

What do they really learn in 1st grade, anyway?

A year ago...

we moved into our house. I hooked up our home theatre system and tried to hide the cords.

As I'm writing this post I'm looking at our system and see every single one of the cords. It looks horrible. I've tried to hide them but really can't figure out how to. I need some wire management!!

I figure after I get the kitchen up and running I can worry about all of the little things that are still pending.

This weekend I'm working on finishing the basement panels since my uncle and aunt are coming to stay with us next weekend.

Nothing like family visiting to get me motivated!

Avatar

We're almost finished with the Avatar cartoon series. It's pretty good. It's been something fun for me and the girls to do. Especially when we're snowed in!

Now I've got to look for a different series that's not overly violent and will keep both kids occupied!

Weekend!

This week has been brutal. SO much work!

Plus...no vacation to look forward to. I feel like it's good to have a vacation or even a couple of days planned. It feels like there's at least some light at the end of the road.

I think I might take off some time when Graem is out of school.
