So I wanted to make sure we got the same level of Xmas gifts for my BIL and his wife. Gene and his brother are going out on the town (dinner, probably cigars) while we’re up north in December/January so I suggested to Gene that SIL and I go get our nails done during the [...]
» Read the rest of this entry ...Thanksgiving 2007 is coming up way too quickly. For once, my in-laws aren’t coming down here to celebrate with us. At one point we had plans to go up there instead but I really don’t want to. Ideally, I’d love for Thanksgiving to just be Gene and I this year (super ideally, the boy would [...]
» Read the rest of this entry ...I love, love, LOVE any excuse to not have to go to work. I love days off work! Right now I’m taking prednisone (for my dead-sexy eczema) and metformin (originally for the prediabetes, but now more for the hopeful fertility upside, but hey, if it helps me lose weight too, who is going to complain?). [...]

(In case you didn’t get the memos, the ugliness is now every Sunday instead of every other Thursday. Mark your calendars).

I am simultaneously trying to kick my caffeine habit while keeping the boy entertained until his father returns on Thursday. So, no chocolate no soda (not even diet, SOB) but plus a boy who doesn’t seem thrilled to be here. I [...]
» Read the rest of this entry ...(Grr. I don’t sniff glue, people. It’s a QUOTE.) Anyway, so Gene is on his business trip and I’m home alone with the Boy. I’m trying to give up my preferred poisons of chocolate and caffeinated soda. I have a headache of epic proportions. The boy wants to go hooooome. Wantsta go home. I have [...]

» Read the rest of this entry ...Why do they call them long weekends when they go by so quickly? Mom’s on her way home to Indianapolis. We had a wonderful time and I am SO glad she came. Yesterday we went to the mall for hoooours. (Personally, my mall tolerance is way lower if I’m alone, but together it was fun). [...]

Eventually we got our act together and went to the grocery store. Gene made dinner (mm!) and then we watched extremely copious amounts of Food Network. (Is it crazy for Gene [...]
