    Houses and Babies

    Babies and houses! It seems each time I talk to someone they are buying a house (which by the way, every person I know who is getting a house is getting it within 3 days of each other!) or is having/had a baby. When did I get this old?!? (lol) One day we’ll have a house and start a family of our own but this definitely isn’t the time. We aren’t ready for that. Still want to be selfish and you can’t be selfish when you have kids. I do however, love that people I know are having babies so I can play with them and talk about them. I…

    Random Patio Crawl 07

    What is this you ask? Well, it’s something John, Kev, and I randomly started one Saturday night. We were tired and looking to go out for one beer or two and then hit the hay. No one was expecting what happened. hehe So Kev bought a house the night before so we a celebratory drink/beer was in order. Good enough reason as any I’d say eh?! We go over to Kev’s…say Hi to Biscuit. Finally meet his parents. LOL Then we head off to see Kev’s new house. We were driving and the street name he know lives is the same one Carli used to live on at home. I…

    It just made my day

    I was feeling a bit down today. I went to work and it was nap time when I came in. One of the kids who likes to cause me grief was awake….of course! (lol) He always tries to talk to me during nap time because he knows he’s not allowed to talk but thinks that because I’m a teacher it’s ok. So today, he said my name and whispered something real quick. Of course, I asked him what. He had to repeat himself three times before I could hear/understand him. He was saying, “Laura. You look real pretty today.” (with the little kid slur. hehe) It was so cute. It…

    Proud to be pale…

    …and you should be too! With skin cancer being so prevalent and the media stresses that being tanned/bronze is what is “in.” What’s “hot.” What everyone should strive for. *puke* It’s rare you see those “models” (I use that term lightly) use sunblock. It’s like hidden from view. Not something thought about. Not something stressed. It needs to be out there. Melanoma is the leading cause of death for women between 25-30. I bet many don’t realize that. I sure didn’t until last year. I’ve heard many people say, “it’s just skin cancer”, “it’s better than another cancer alternative”, etc etc. Uh, I think not. In theory you may believe…

    Vibes

    Now that I’m not a nanny I’m no good?! WTF ever. I have no time for these goings on. It’s just what I’m feeling. I was only good for you when I was “of use.” And of use has many different meanings in this particular case. I just thought you were better than that. I thought you were more than that. I thought we were more than that. Just strange vibes. I had the conversation I needed today about other weird vibes. A great friend put my mind to ease and told me to forgot all that other stuff. What she said made sense. I wondered why I never thought…
