...of a rather self-indulgent type, as my mom might comment. I don't sleep when my husband is on the road, which translates to, I don't sleep much because my husband is always on the road. Does anyone else not sleep when their spouse is gone, or are you all lucky enough not to know what I am talking about? Anyway, so I tried to go to bed, and my mind is racing with thoughts, so my solution to quiet the chaos is to post. Hey, I have to talk to someone, my 5 and 1 year old just don't seem to understand, they just look at me like I'm crazy, which of course I am.
I have been delaying the most recent news about Ronnie because it just shows what a horrible mom I am. (Somehow I thought I was fooling you all this time, but I know you really can see right through me!) While in Utah this last week, we went to the Dentist (Uncle Cory) for our once every some odd years cleaning (because I am deathly afraid of any dentist that isn't him). Nelson and I checked out great, but my poor Ronnie...had eight cavities! I know, you are all shaking your finger at me. That's not even the worst part, two of the cavities were so bad, he had to have a "baby root canal" as Cory called it. He also said that Ronnie set the record for the most dental work he has done on a child without putting them under all the way, because Ronnie didn't want any shots. I hope he won't be permanently traumatized, this was his first "official" experience with the dentist. Yikes!
So, I just watched Biggest Loser Families, because someday I am going to get motivated too, just not today. Well, it scared the fat right out of me when they showed the pictures of what the contestants insides looked like. Yuck! I know someone will probably tell me they aren't accurate pictures, they are most likely glammed up for TV, but hey, they got the point across real fast, I might have to change my mind about being motivated! Anyone else watch?
I also watched my other guilty pleasure, and I am almost afraid to tell you I watch it for fear of retribution. How To Look Good "Neked", yes, I said it, well I guess I only sorta said it. Anyways, I find it quite amusing, because while I really would love to find the confidence to feel good about myself the way I am, I really don't think spending 5 days with Carson Kressley, who is incredibly gay (Does anyone else find it odd that a show about appreciating a woman's body is hosted by a gay man?) is going to cure me of my body loathing, because let's face it, at the end of the day, I'm still fat and I don't want to be. I think it's all fake, but highly entertaining, in a weird sort of way. Okay, now feel free to tell me how bad I am for watching, I'm ready to face the music.
Does anybody know how to get stains out of carpet, like permanently, because I clean them, and they look good for few weeks, but then they come back, like some evil magic that is mocking my hard work. Thank you baby spit up for making sure my carpet never forgets you were there.
Okay, so the last torture for this post, although if you are reading it, it's your own fault if it is torture, is a survey. I am trying to decide on a vinyl quote for my bedroom wall, but torn, and when I ask my DH, I get a typical male response, "What's the difference?" Can you help a girl out and let me know which one you like?
I promise this will be the last self-indulgent post, at least for a long while, because I sort of feel guilty for writing it, but I'm going to post it anyway after I spent all this time writing it. We'll just call it "journaling" and say I am doing as the brethren have commanded. Humor Me!
