So What Wednesday

Today is Wednesday and I am saying so WHAT if…

• I feel like today is Thursday
• I enjoy Big Brother
• It took me a week to figure out that my washer was only running hot water… called sears and they came 3 days later and switched the crossed lines…
• I felt really sad leaving my apartment for the very last time… stood where I had contractions all night for my son… looked at the place his crib was for the past 2 years and 9 months… looked out my balcony for my very last view… ugh writing this is making me sad
• we finally figured out that Thursday is our garbage day and we have like 2 1/2 weeks worth of garbage to put out PLUS moving makes more garbage
• I am still figuring out ways to get around our neighbor hood to the main roads
• I wonder if I wore my pedometer if I am still getting over 10,000 steps a day
• I can’t stand when people walk or ride their bikes on the wrong side of the road (walk against, ride with)
• I let NF take a chocolate milk jug with a straw freely at a softball game, he drank half of it then dumped the rest of it all over himself (I think he was watching the guys poor the water bottles over their heads… not the same with chocolate milk I am afraid)
• I am highly enjoying the rainy cold weather during the work week – makes for good sleeping nights
• I drank two glasses of wine tonight – I never do that and now I feel guilty that there is a half open bottle of wine left over
• the snakes on our front porch are gone and I feel kinda sad about it
• I have cable now and I can officially keep up with the kardashians
• I don’t even miss Caroline and Jacqueline on RHONJ… and I am glad that Kathy still makes appearances
• I would still like to meet Teresa Giudice
• I am sad to say I am over Bethany Frankel
• I am reading Brandi Glanville’s Drinking and Tweeting and love it and want to read her next book
• I couldn’t get into Caroline’s book Let me Tell you Something but I still do want to read it
• I am sort of interested in reading Amber’s Portwood’s book Never Too Late… but I have low expectations same with Kailyn Lowry’s
• Our kitchen is now half unpacked
• I can’t stand when NF tries to climb on my bed with his sneakers still on

Flash Back Friday

NF June 10, 2012… Right after his photo shoot for a local magazine cover… I like this picture better than the one they took and used.

Thursday Thoughts

Good Morning Thursday!!!  I can’t believe we’re ALMOST moved.  I just want it to happen already.

We’ve partially taken care of our snake problem… by partially I mean one of them is dead.  I don’t want to get into details… but I was strangely sad.

For Big Brother 16 news… (SPOILER ALERT) if all goes well Devin will go home tonight.

I couldn’t find these online but on July 3rd I ran to target for a 4th of July outfit and I noticed sandals in the woman’s section as I was zooming by…. I glanced over at the girl’s shoes and they had basically the same version.  I am a 6 1/2 in woman’s and a 5 in girl’s… the woman’s sandal was like $23 and the girl’s on sale for $12… A-mazing.  Then I thought… a deal this good can’t be perfect… maybe they’re too narrow… nope at least I didn’t think so… maybe they’d give me blisters… nope they didn’t…. they were actually pretty comfortable.  AND I saw another girl (my boyfriend’s cousin on his mom’s side’s cousin from his dad’s side – you follow that?)… so I saw her (she’s 12) and she had the SAME sandals but in white!!!  Maybe I’m that crazy lady at the BBQs that chase children down to tell them I have the same sandals.  IN FACT, my 11 year old niece told me once that her friend had the same sneakers as I did!!!  Which makes total sense because they were $40 at Sports Authority in the girl’s section.  (notice the red toes for the 4th of July)  I apologize for my poor phone camera… my phone is from 2010.

The Syracuse Nationals is happening this weekend…  that means for the 3rd year in a row I get to feel the people booing at my 2003 Elantra while I drive down my street to my apartment.  They don’t ACTUALLY boo at my car, but I am sure they have absolutely no interest in my car blocking the view of a nice hot rod.  It’s shameful to drive my poor car this weekend every year.  People put up lawn chairs up and down the street I live on to see them parade around.  (It’s loud at night with all the vroomming).  Don’t get me wrong though, I love to see it and I am proud that Syracuse has this annually.

Tonight I am going to Funny Bone and seeing the comedian Junior from the Steve Harvey show.  I didn’t specifically want to go see this particular comedian… we’re celebrating my cousin’s birthday and she’s driving from Rochester for the evening.  Having the mall expand and add all these new restaurants and entertainment stuff has been wonderful!  You wanna go go carting, bowling, comedy show, laser tag, mirror maze, movie, imax, and like 20 plus restaurants it’s there and I live like SO close (I am kinda sad we’re moving like 15 minutes further away from it).  SO it should be a good time?  I kinda think that all comedians will be funny… we’ll see… I’ll give my review tomorrow.

Omg I love him.  Just free as can be in the summer.  NF loves the mall lately… he asks me, “mom, we go in the car, we drive to the mall?”  He told me his pajamas were “comfy and warm.”  WHAT!  and he insists everything is green.  I love him soooooo much – he’s just surprising me every day Idk what he’ll tell me next.

“I’ll have an organic low fat vanilla milk and a hot tall skinny caramel macchiato for my mom please” (no he actually didn’t say that… but he’s saying a LOT lately… more and more since like last week!!)  I know it’s Sunday but I just want to post this now and not wait.

I’ve been so busy… way more busy than normal.  We bought a house beginning of June… we’ve attended 4 weddings since memorial day weekend (I was in one and NF was in one).  Here’s some photo’s from the weddings… (click on them to view them larger)

Wedding #1 Cara and Doug

Wedding #2 Christina and Mike

 

Wedding #3 Ashley and Mike

  

Wedding #4 Melanie and Patrick

I also ran a two 5ks… and my dad did them too…  Here’s a photo from one of them…

My family from Vermont came to visit and they were able to see my new house… here’s a photo of us together…

Our cousin Patrick is leaving for Germany today and we were able to say goodbye to him this weekend…

And there’s been lots of softball…

NF plays the piano at church… (after everyone has left)

We had a tornado here last week (that like never happens)… and it interrupted big brother.

A snake lives on our front steps.  SERIOUSLY it does.  It’s always there… and we named him Henry… and I can’t use the front door I have to use the garage… and I am too afraid to kill him or remove him… so we’ve just done nothing… ugh… and I think he eats mice… am I crazy?  I think that I vacuumed mice bones… C thinks I am nutso… I think that I am a normal paranoid person.

And so much more has happened in the last 2 months… NF had croup last week and it was horrible… but it came as fast as it went… but that was a rough time.

I think I am sort of caught up and hopefully I can keep up on updating now that things are slowing down and I have less to update about!!  Strange how that works huuh?
