Before I post some crap about my kids, I think I will do some housekeeping and check up on the list that I so confidently posted last April. Some things are gettin' done, but some things just aren't. Oh well. I am busy, and currently have a splitting headache. Hugs and kisses everyone. Hugs and kisses.
6. Plan a vacation for Jake and I and 9. Go to Texas
So, I straight up multi-tasked this one. Kudos for me. Jake and I went to Texas, and we had a good time. Then, Jake came down with the bubonic plague the week after and our house looked like a clothes bomb went off. So, thank you universe for never wanting us to plan another vacation. On the brightside, we had a lot of fun!
12. Host a fancy schmancy dinner party
I sort of forgot about this one, but awhile back (I think in November), I invited our friends Ericka and Gus to come over for a "special dinner cooked by Bri from a recipe from Giada." We used the china and everything. The meal results were okay. But, Ericka and Gus were very nice and polite and made pumpkin cheesecake.
13. Redo 1 room in our house
Well, this one we are checking off with gusto! Jake and I have decided to move, and we are putting our house up for sale in April. I am fully positive that this is why I have a splitting headache. However, we (Jake and his Dad) have tiled our downstairs bathroom, and because our furnace broke this weekend we got a new one. Super fun! We also plan to get new carpet throughout our house, plus lots of minor updates and repairs. Everyone thinks this is so exciting, but I do not. I hate this whole process. I hated it before. Nothing excites me about it. And, then, when we do find a house it makes me sick to think of all the money that is involved and how this is such a giant committment. Let's move on ...
19. Read a classic
I am not sure if this means finish the book or just read it, but since I am cranky and need some positive reassurance, let's just say it means just start it. And, in that case, I have started reading "Atlas Shrugged." Hooray for intellect!
Next up, a chronicling of my children in their lives. SPOILER ALERT- There is a video of Abe and Sam makes a sad face now.
