Faaaaadiiiinnng!!

Wish there were more hours in the day!

We did manage to squeeze a lot into our evening, though. I ran all the errands I needed to. Was amused by the sudden over-flow of site traffic I got today. Hmm, wonder why?? Watched enough of The Little Mermaid to satisfy the girls before they let me go into the kitchen to make dinner. Chicken and green beans in celery sauce and mashed potatoes. Fed everyone. Took Mom (and the girls) to pick up her prescription. My babe cleaned the pool and we got in with the girlies for a good while. The water is SO WARM, I could fall asleep in there. I stuck the girls in the tub afterwards. Talked to my boys. PJs & teeth-brushing. Bed. My babe and I are ending the night by playing Black Ops (him) and reading blogs (me). I’m about to crash any second now but I gotta shower. I hope tomorrow goes by fast! Goodnight :).

Save the Drama for Your Mama

Brought lunch from home and had some Mandarin oranges for dessert…my tummy is feeling pretty good. Much, much better than yesterday evening and this morning, for sure. It’s weird too ’cause I didn’t catch the bug the kids had, but my tummy just doesn’t feel right. Anyway!

I’m glad I still remember how to USE my site because, after, what? 6 years I had to start blocking IPs again. People seriously need to get hobbies.

I have errands to run after work and I already know what I’m making for dinner so hopefully everything goes smoothly. Rain is expected, so a night on the back porch with my babe and the girlies sounds about right :).

(Edit:)Wow, Psychos! 11 people on my site at one time?! Thanks for the traffic, bitches ;).

Oh, and my “fairytale life”? Yeah, it’s not a fairytale, but HARD WORK. I’m pretty damn proud of what I’ve accomplished in less than a year. Maybe if you got off your ass and worked hard instead of depending on everyone else to do everything for you, you’d have a good life, too. Maybe. Bitter, awful people may have a hard time getting a life, though. Hmmm.

Welp, dinner’s cooking! Gonna put on my pink apron, whip out my magic wand and live my fairytale life :). It’s so flattering that you’d think to call it that :).

This isn’t meant at all towards my friends/daily visitors. I’m dealing with “real life” morons :).

Communication is Key

Today was one of those typical Mondays: rushing around in the morning to get out and get to work on time, Monday morning meeting, and catching up with weekend gossip. Of course that meant retelling the story of the Ghetto Cat Fight to my nearest and dearest. Sent out email invites for my upcoming event (upcoming as in November; have to prepare months ahead) and by the time we knew it, it was lunch time.

My stomach was feeling weird; I didn’t even have an appetite in the morning and I felt simultaneously queasy and hungry, but I got to meet up with my babe which always makes my day better :). On the drive to Subway we talked about some things. I moped because some things weren’t what I wanted to hear and we somehow ended up in an argument. An argument that made me lose the little appetite I had and caused him to lose it, too. It was just a horrible situation. We gathered our things as the waterworks started (and a lightbulb just went off RIGHTNOW. It’s the week before Mother Nature makes her visit. Now my moods make sense!).

I was so upset I couldn’t make myself go back to work. Not to mention my stomach felt even worse. My hours are still being cut this week at work and I’d asked my boss if I could just take Friday off (which I was taking off anyway because it’s the start of my vacation) and use those hours during that day instead of leaving early/coming in late. But I used 4 of those hours today. I came home and tried to just sleep off my mood and my tummy ache. My babe began texting me and we talked about what happened and then he called and we talked some more until we cleared everything up. I’m so glad. I hate fighting, arguing. We agreed since the beginning that we wouldn’t turn into THAT COUPLE.

Once we made up and were fine, I passed out completely till 5:20 when my babe called that he was on his way home. I was thrilled. It was the perfect day for him to get home early. We snacked on our leftover Subway and then I started actual dinner since the girls and Mom hadn’t eaten. We ate a little bit of that, too (my stomach was still bothering me but I’m fine now, thank GOD) and then we sat in the garage enjoying the surprisingly not-boiling evening while we waited for Mario to drop off the kids. Of course he wouldn’t remind the boys to bring their things (they were even barefoot) so they visited for a while and then they left with him and the girls stayed with us. They watched movies with Mom and had popcorn and shakes and we’ve been in the living room watching TV (I just remembered I have more laundry to do!) and just having a really low-key, normal night. All is right again and I’m so glad!
