Random Observations from today....

October 20, 2011

When I pull up next to you at a light and I can hear your music, and feel your music...it is too loud.  
...and when I look over at you and you shoot me a look like I am some old mom in a minivan, and I am too old to understand today's youth....I want you to know that my observation of you is that you are obviously making up for a lack of something, and I think I know what it is...

I still get lost every time I go to Ikea.  
...and why is it so damn hard to push and turn the carts at Ikea?  Is it the floor?  Is it the cart's wheels?  I still can feel my abdominals from steering the cart while trying to get the hell out of there!
...but the meatballs are delicious!
Ice rinks are cold!

Maybe my son would like to play professional beach volleyball!

It was probably counter-productive to read a diet book (in hopes of losing weight)....

while I munched on Pringles!
My husband and I are currently playing a game, or I like to think it is a game....

It is 8:22 pm, and our kids are supposed to be in bed by 8:30 pm.  We are both waiting to see who will make the first move and be the parent to put them to bed.

This is a common game, as putting our kids to bed is like running a marathon, and it is mentally draining!

I wonder if I should point out my husband's schedule to him....He leaves next week for THREE WEEKS!  That is three weeks or twenty-one bedtimes in a row that I will not have any help.


***It is now 8:40.....My husband is still watching the hockey game, and my son is jumping on his bed....

We play the same game when it comes to putting our daughter to bed. And I feel the same way about shopping carts at IKEA!
Happy weekend xxx

Have a great weekend!

Ha. Fun game, lol. I was just talking with a girlfriend from home, one that hates cold weather just as much as I do. She was joking that hey, hockey is played in cold weather, that is what I signed up for. I said in my next life, I'm marrying a golfer, lol. Have a good start to the weekend!

HEy girl...sorry it's been awhile. Life is crazy for me with hubby deployed and baby on board! Love this post! We have that same battle/game (when hubby is here)...I think since he leaves for a year at a time, that all bedtimes when he is here should be HIS!! Just my opinion though!!
