Busy, Busy, Busy

Do you ever have those months where every single weekend is jam packed with stuff? Well, that has been my family's life this past month. I'm not complaining, we are just BUSY. Hubs has been off of work for the past few weeks but he hasn't been sitting around. He has been busy with projects around the house during his in-between HOUSE WIVES gigs. He just went back to work today on ORANGE COUNTY which is starting it's 10th season. I headed into work this morning not knowing where the week is going to take me. It might very well be the end for my start up company. The good news is that my little family is happy. We've been lucky to make some new friends with people whose kids are in Penny's swim class and who, coincidentally live down the street from us. We have been having playdates here and there and this past weekend we all went out to a kid friendly brew pub for some food and libations. Did I mention they have a killer pretzel mac and chess bowl that the kids (um, the adults) loved?! We have been doing double the amount of swim classes the past few weeks, trying to make up for some classes we missed throughout our swim package. So we have not only been going on Sunday's but also, on Saturday's. We've had date night. We had a date with our tax man. We have had birthday parties, afternoon teas, doctor appointments, dentist appointments, Disneyland, more Disneyland, Disneyland egg hunts, movies with our neighbors, remodeling to our house, we have had deliveries of patio furniture, and bonus room sofa beds, you name it, I think we did it this month! Moses, my poor boy, wonders what the heck we are doing. It has allowed for some good nap time for him but alas, we have been missing our Moses boy. Our sweet boy is always waiting for us with his big kisses and his tail wagging when we open up our new front door. Gotta love that dog! He is absolutely our best friend! Next month will be the month of Moses!

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 ...

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 ...

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...
