Hodgepodge

Oh me, oh my, I need to shake out of this funk. I know it's all work-related...too many projects...too many defects...too many carriers to please. It's shaking my chi all out of whack.

I successfully tested from Block A to B in tai chi chuan. It was kind of an honor to test and receive a certificate and get the patches sewn onto the old sash. I still have such a long way to go, but I'm ever-enjoying the path I've chosen for shaping up mind, body and spirit.

Older sis now in FL. I kind of forget I'm getting niece #3 in August. But, I'm happy she's finally starting a life for herself.

Went to dermatologist for first time ever. Got some stuff frozen off. "What are we gonna do about this acne?" he says. SCREW OFF! Yes, I don't wear makeup ever b/c I don't have to impress anyone, let alone a dermatologist. And, yes, the skin looks a little worse now b/c I'm sweating my ass/face off 3 days a week exercising! Oh, yeah, "I'd like to see you lose the weight." Really, jackass? Me, too! He was brutally honest, and I appreciate that. But, I left that day feeling like the ugliest fat girl in all of North America. I proceeded to spend lots of money at Target as my therapy.

Had a date night for first time in MONTHS. It sounds like I'm bragging, I know. I normally only get a babysitter to go to tai chi if Jon's out of town! But, it was nice. We went to dinner in a restaurant w/o a kid's menu, I had a glass of wine, we talked about normal couple stuff (not just work and the dude), we saw a movie...not ironically, Date Night. We still made it home before 10 and watched Iron Chef to end the evening, but that's OK. It's who we are!

Other sister is the awesomeness. She whipped out a "That's why God gave us a twin" today. I <3 being a twin.

Hoping to put Harrison in soccer for 6 weeks thru daycare program. I want to see what he might gravitate toward next - hoping he'll be one of those participators in things. I never got to do much as a kid, so I want to provide what I can for him in choices of extracurricular activities.

Must buy more chocolate.

The end.

  1. Yes, being a twin is the awesome-est! And you are not the ugliest fat girl in North America. I am. And I'm so jealous you get to date your husband! Target shopping is a verifiable form of therapy. And buying more chocolate is always a good thing :-)

  2. I'm always glad I have you, twin or not! I know I'm not ugly, and I'm working on the fat. Same goes for you! Are you jealous I get to date Jon or just jealous of dating? Target shopping really only included an electric toothbrush and my ACNE treatment. So, I'm making myself prettier! Ha!

    Chocolate is my real boyfriend...too bad I have to pay for it...
