It's 4:08am....

.....and I have a stinkin' migraine.
(it's you and me, Kerry)

THIS SUX!!!


So, I've taken some Excedrine Migraine (because if I take my prescription migraine medicine at this hour....I'll be comatose until after noon.....and heaven knows, I need to be up and ALERT to watch the wild pink monkey ~aka Marinne~

and protect my home and my scrapbooking area at 7am, when she will be up!)

So, let's hope it kicks in VERY SOON!!!

In the meantime, some thoughts.....

Number 1 -
WOO HOO! I rocked it again at Weight Watchers!!!

I lost 3.0 pounds this week!
FOR A GRAND TOTAL OF 23.2 POUNDS!!!


Uh HUH! Oh Ya! Uh Huh! OH YA!
(that's a victory chant!)


Number 2 -

I've really been thinking of some things I miss about Savannah.....

~my girl friends!!! (need I say more?!)

~the outlet mall w/ Carters and the bookstore outlet 5 min. from my house

~Houlihan's (right, Tammy?! mmmmm.....creme brulee')

~my log cabin pines that surrounded my house

~the possibility to decide to go to the beach and pack the car, the kids and be on the beach in an hour (I've got all these beach toys I paid to move to Kansas....what the heck was I thinking on that one?!?! I paid to move them to a land-locked state! Idiot!)

~my pediatrician (have I mentioned recently, I luv Dr. Seibert?!)

~my job at Savannah Scrapbooking (could this be so I can replace my ruined cat's eye chalk inks at 25% off?!?!)

~scrappin' with the funnest people on earth

~the marsh (I know it can be stinky, but it is pretty....)

~high and low tide (that always amazed me)

~downtown Savannah

~River Street

~the mild winters (could this be that 12 days ago we were in our pool--which was freezing--and today it's 51 degrees?!?! seriously....can you believe that 51 DEGREES?!?!)


Number 2 ~

Have you seen Yo Gabba Gabba ?

I know a lot of mom's where bashing it when they first started playing the previews....but dang it, I love that show!! My favorite one so far is called Eat. (no, not because I want to....)
It's just so dang cute w/ these catchy little ditties, storytime, dancing (which M loves) and
even some "celeb" visitors.....and since I'm a "secret celeb obsessor" .....I love it!


Well....crap....can't figure out how to post my video.....see next post......


Anyway.....Yo Gabba Gabba is very cool, hip-hop and FUN!!!

Marinne and Griffin LOVE IT!!!! (momma, too!)

And it's got "Biz's Beat of the day..."
(Biz Markie....remember him?! ........ You, you've got what I ne-eeed.
You say he's just a friend, you say he's just a friend......)

**again, see next post for video**
(why can't I figure this out....possibly that it's 5am?!)

And the guy that does the "drawing segment" ....Mark Mothersbaugh....
he's from the 80's group, Devo!

(the 80's girl I am....I MUST SUPPORT YO GABBA GABBA!
I'm glad these people have work again! It sux to have no job!)

Self-Portrait Tuesday

So, here it is. My Elsie wanna-be photo. Not bad for a first try.....


THE countdown continues....2 days till SAVANNAH!

Need I say more?!?!?!



I am completely insane. I did 9 loads of laundry yesterday and folded and put every bit of it away! I still have 7 more loads to do today. I HATE LAUNDRY!!!! But, I love having my laundry room...I am so happy to have an actual room, where I have space to move. I have a place I can put laundry baskets. I have a folding table (which comes out to double as cropping space for my friends~~so, come on over and we'll crop the day away!!!! Who cares about this laundry, anyway?!?!!)


Man I was blinded by cropping thoughts...... so, the space is so cavelike because it's an "unfinished" room. I hate it! I keep telling Ike I am going to paint it pink. And one of these days....I'm going to!!!!


Anyway, I'm trying to get the laundry completely done before I leave. And I'm trying to get food for while I'm gone, along with some menus for Big Daddy. This will help him curb the temptation to eat out for every meal!! That's just tooooo expensive!!


And I haven't even begun to pre-plan pages, etc. for scrapbooking, so I have a lot to do!


To top it all off, this is Ike's first day off that isn't a holiday, so we are first off to the DMV to get our cars inspected, new driver's licenses and our car tags (which are currently 3 months overdue....don't tell the state of KS!)


I'm off....have a great day!!!

It's the weekend.....

Hey everybody!!!!
It's Friday, well for me, technically Saturday, as it's 12:28am!!


Random thoughts:

• I have the WW weigh-in in the morning. Due to unforseen circumstances....it will either be very bad, or possibly decent since I kicked butt today and yesterday not even using all my points!! (but I sit here typing and hungry... that's the problem w/ staying up late!! Bummer!!)

• I went to Hobby Lobby to get the 2 new Love, Elsie lines, Lola and Riley, that were only released to HL. They are there...but the manager says she has no idea when they will have the time to get them out. Um....hey dumb manager....I am a customer wanting to buy both lines.....SELL THEM TO ME EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO GO GET THEM OUT OF THE DANG BOX RIGHT NOW WHILE I WAIT!!!!!!! I was frustrated!!!

• I scrapped the cutest dang layout when I got home tonight. It was the other Pumpkin Patch layout. I am very happy with it. I hope to picture and post it tomorrow.

• And for some shocking news.....my 20th class reunion (high school...dang I'm not THAT old!!!) is next weekend. I am really starting to freak about what I am going to wear! I don't care what anyone thinks about me. I just want to go and look the best I can and feel comfortable in what I wear. KWIM? So, I am going to be hitting the mall all weekend! Wish me luck!

• I took Logan out w/ me tonight. He is really a great kid. I took him to Starbucks. We ordered him a blueberry white tea and it was quite good. Just the slightest hint of blueberryness!!! Yum! And I got a carmel frap light w/ no whip (waaahh...I REALLY wanted whipped cream...) but I was a good girl. I think it's like 4 points....(oh, I gotta go write that down!!!)

• So, my step-mom called me and told me that she's decided I need to enter the Creating Keepsakes Scrapper of the Year contest. She's CONVINCED I can win. Hold on a sec.... Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!! Good one!!!! Yea, right! But, thanks for the vote of confidence, Janet. I love you for believing in me......

• Today overall sucked...... I'm cranky and crampy. (not crappy.....Beth!)
  
• Jensen woke up and was vom-ing and now he has the dina-rina! (as it's known in our house)
• The cat horked under the table during lunch....I made poor Logan clean it because I barely do kid puke....and I definately don't do ANYTHING that comes out of a cat!!!
• Marinne was cranky...let's hope she doesn't get it too!

Let's hope for a great weekend!!!
