Random Thoughts

I'm going to try making my own yogurt in my crockpot. Check out this link, it's so easy! I'll try to remember to let you know how it goes.

I wore something so super frumpy in public today!! I took the three big girls to get their hair cut (and I got mine done too) and I wore this:


Okay, I can't believe that I really posted that photo. Did you notice the haircut at all? Bad photo, you can't really see the haircut! Oh well. So just the clothing and the baby weight? LOL. (Oh and that spot on my shirt, it must be on the camera because there is no spot on my shirt.)

My dh got blindsided at work on Tuesday. They terminated his employment!! At first I was really mad and hurt and wanted to fight back. We made some calls and even the labor board couldn't help us because he was offered a severance package. So it was take the severance package and loose the job or file a civil suit! We can't afford the stress or the cost of a civil suit. The severance package was okay and is kind of nice in a way. We are spending some time as a family and working on the loft. We've got a few other plans which include, of course, looking for a new job! But with Baby R being so little still he can also get parental leave.

Baby R is sick. We all have a cold and she got it too! But she's handling it so well, even sleeping lots. She's such a sweetie!

I'm behind on my laundry and dishes again! I gotta get caught up.

I hurt myself. We got the AB King Pro. I had a baby 2.5 months ago. I haven't really worked out since I was pregnant with Cutie Boy 2.5 years ago. I did 180 situps with this machine over two days (100 one day and 80 the next). Saturday I was okay, just a little sore. Sunday I was a wreck! I could hardly move. I was soooooo sore that I wanted to go to the ER for drugs! Strong drugs. I was alternating generic Tylenol and generic Advil every four hours and they were just barely making me kind of comfortable! After a long stretch with the help of my DH Sunday night, I was much better Monday morning. Tuesday afternoon and through the night I got sore again, different muscles this time. I think Tuesday and today's soreness was from the overuse of the muscles that weren't sore from before. Does that make sense?

I am craving coffee, or maybe caffienated whatever! I don't understand why.

I love my new camera!! Well, my new to me camera. Thanks again, S. M.

I very seriously want to lose baby weight, but now I'm scared of that silly machine. Maybe I'll pull out that belly dancing video. I should. I really want to.

I really really dislike doing dishes. It's not so bad if there is NO ONE else around and the children are not fighting in another room. However, this afternoon sucked! lol It was great family time, but I don't like dishes as family time. If I didn't think that buying them was such a waste of my dh's hard earned money, I'd buy disposible dishes and silverware. Not only does that waste our financial resources, but it's not all that great for the environment either.

I want to buy this book.

I consciously made the decision to stay up later and have another cup of coffee while I blog, and watch TV. Does that mean I consciously made the decision to get up later tomorrow morning?

Oh and the kitchen I wrote about yesterday?? It was already spoken for by someone else. Not getting it is kind of saddening but at the same time, I'm really okay with the fact that we didn't get this one.
