Happy New Years!



Holy Shit! Can you believe its going to be 2010 tomorrow?? I think my friend Jeff said it best today when he said 2010 is stuff of sci-fi movies. It was only 10 years ago we were preparing for Y2K. I was working at the theatres back then and we were all wondering if all the computers would shut down when it turned midnight? Well, they didn't as we all know.

I don't really do new years resolutions or anything but here are some things I want to try or do more of in 2010:

- get together with friends more which requires more planning on my part
- get really good at Super Mario Bros Wii... meaning get past level 2
- lose my 15 cheeseburger lbs and rediscover Wii Fit (I know everyone wants to lose weight)
- take a fun class with hubby. Maybe Yoga or photography. I really liked Yoga when I was getting fit for my wedding
- read one book a month in honor of Mr. Rumsey
- cook new and exciting things ala Julia Childs and bake more cuz gosh darn it I find it relaxing
- grow more herbs in my garden. I got off to a good start this past year but i need to add more!
- go back to Hawaii for a week and check out New York (I have never been)
- get my backyard movie projector working and have movie nights
- fancy dinner nights with friends (After going to Animal I was inspired to visit other classy joints in town)
- figure out wine because I must not be doing it right

Now let's see how many items I accomplish.

Random Thoughts as the Weekend Closes

Today I got a friend request from my mother-in-law. Will she embrace the FaceBook? We wait and see. Technology is cool...I got to speak to my friend in Hong Kong today. The BlindSide is a really heartwarming and good movie. I didn't know what to expect. I saw Sandra in blond hair and I thought cheesy. Now I can't decide whether I want her or Meryl to win the Oscar. Cats are really nice creatures. I haven't really had much exposure to one before. I especially like the fact that you can hold them like babies. I wonder if I stole Mr. Chuckles if anyone would notice? hum. Bartenders blowing fire makes for an interesting drink at the bar. Plantains are better when they come with your meal and not as an appetizer. I met a man who wanted to see Leap Year. Krueger continues to take jobs that suck ass and take up her precious time. Sorry CougarTown screwed ur day up Krugs. We missed u at the movies today. Ever since I got Mo I have meet the most interesting people ...

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Time Is Flying

Man, back in September and October, I thought time was going by so slowly but now that we are in November and half way through it, it seems like time is flying once again. Maybe that has a little bit to do with me being a lady of leisure these days. My doctor put me on bedrest for the remainder of my pregnancy. I went into his office all stressed out over the situation at work in early November and he said "this Friday, November 4th, will be your last day." I was like "Excuse me?" Doc put me on disability because stress is bad for the gestational diabetes I already have and for the apparent high blood pressure reading I had that day and some of my tests indicated I was at risk for pre-eclampsia. My new job, is to go to the hospital for neonatal stress tests, twice a week, on Monday's and Thursday's with a weekly OBGYN appointment on Thursday's after my hospital appointment. Throw in some eye doctor appointments with an eye specialist (apparen...
