Say something, Steph
I have been kicking myself for not posting lately. It’s not that nothing is going on, I do have things to write about. Like, for instance, I bet all y’all want to know all about how we’re (ummm, Jeremy) are painting our house. Right? That’s some interesting stuff. Or, you probably would like to her about how Austin is leaving Friday for AN ENTIRE THREE WEEKS to visit his dad. I could whine to you about that. Or, maybe I could make y’all laugh by sharing how I showed my arse to all the neighbors (and my poor children) by running, screaming from bees while trying to paint the facia on our house. No, actually that wasn’t very funny. But. I hate bees and everyone else thinks that’s funny for some reason.
I have tried to think of something fun to write but am so enjoying my time right now that I’m neglecting my blog. Don’t leave though, K? I’m going to get back to it (my blog) when life settles back into a normal schedule. Jeremy is off of work for a few weeks to work on OUR house, play, enjoy our days together.
Want some juice though?
*Well, Noah and Bella have decided to start sleeping in until 7:30 for the past week! Yippeee!
*I’m working on a blog makeover. Oh, yes. The naked warrior chick is getting canned!
*I’m not getting a tummy tuck. Nope. After so much thought, I decided not to do it. I’ve really come a long way with my fitness (I run 5K in 30 minutes & workout every other day— something I couldn’t/didn’t even do when I was a teenager). And I’m working hard on the self love. Bella pinched her belly today and told me that she was fat. My heart sunk. What have I been teaching her when I thought she was too little to understand? I’m working on this. Not just for her, but for me too. If I am more loving and excepting of myself, she will learn this from me. I’m thinking about just having my hernia repaired, perhaps that will help me to get more tone in my belly.
*We’ve been practicing Earth Hour in our house weekly. It has been such a bonding time. I put the kiddos to bed, we cook a yummy late dinner, turn the power off and then we do something nice together. “Adult time”, we like to call it. We play cards by the candles, talk, sometimes take a couple of shots of Crown. Getting tipsy and silly is fun. I’ve been pregnant or nursing for so many years that I forgot how fun it is. This Earth Hour thing has turned out to be a fun way to nurture our relationship together, as husband and wife.
*I know I already mentioned this, but… Austin is leaving for 3 weeks! I’m sooooo totally going to cry when he gets on the plane. I’m going to bawl like a baby. What am I going to do when he leaves the nest?! The strangest thing popped into my head the other day: If Austin does things like I did (which he won’t, he has a much stronger head on his shoulders), I’m going to be a grandma in 5.5 years! OMGoodness, such a strange thought.
Ok, so that’s all I have. For now! Maybe I can post some pics of my freshly painted house soon. Yippee. Thanks for being patient with me on the blog posting
. I’ll be back soon…
