i feel like i just make lists and make more lists and i am still forgetting stuff and never catching up.
do you ever feel like that?
stress.
i AM excited about trick or treating tonight.
i mean...as excited as i could be...i guess i am happy to get to walk around with craig.
since the kids run ahead and leave us way behind usually.
it makes me happy to not have to worry about answering the door....no one trick or treats in the country. :)
i have a bumble bee, a pirate and a banana this year.
thank you wal-mart.
you helped a mama out!
and btw...my kids were so excited to open the box of costumes that came in the mail.
i was actually even smarter and i ordered 3 for each of them and let them pick from the 3.
they each chose differently than i thought so it was a great way to do it.
and i returned the others because walmart is awesome about returns.
i did go out for a run/walk today.
it is so nice to do this with a friend because you get your exercise and you can talk about everything.
at least that is what my running friends and i do.
we are dealing with big time real life stuff while we are sweatin' it out on the dirt path.
killing two birds with one stone.
three actually....exercise, social face-to-face girl time AND vitamin D sunshine baby!
i love running.
it's true.
i may not always want to go...i usually don't want to but i am ALWAYS happy i went.
always.
never changes.
girls get the best clothes.
i LOVE these shirts at old navy that i got my girls but wished they came in my size.
someone on instagram suggested cutting them up and making it an applique on MY shirt.
ummm....brilliant!??
i am totally going to do that!!! (with a new shirt not with their shirts ;)
because grown up moms like rainbows too!
measuring heights on our doorway ruler.
scott is 5' 9.5"
so weird to have my children taller than me now.
bizarre.
i am pretty sure i will be the shortest in my family in about 5 years.
i made a fun wreath last week for the Craft House door.
:)
scraps and hot glue.
she is a very low maintenance wreath...i like her.
not very "fall"ish but it's very MEG-ish and that is what matters.
after craft weekend i usually sleep on mondays for a LONG time.
i get up and see my kids off on the bus and then crawl IMMEDIATELY back into bed.
it is such a nice way to recover.
i actually spent the whole day at home which i haven't done for a long time!
i rearranged a little...picked up a bit.
it was a nice sleepy cozy day on monday.
last year we rocked out our pumpkins with AWESOME designs and colors.
this year?
we did nothing.
ha ha ha
i had a canvas made of an older picture of scott.
he sure is a cutie.
i like that it's black and white...and his basketball is all ratty.
(and i like that he looks just like his daddy)
did you know Parenthood wasn't going to be on last night?
i wish you would have warned me.
i got all cozy and ready to watch...waiting long enough in so i could watch it on the dvr without commercials and not catch up to live tv...and then it wasn't on!!!
i know, i know....get a life meg!
but i was ready to just chill with the bravermans!
we watched the office instead on dvr. (i thought you were Adam Lambert....)
i really want Mad Men to hurry up and come back on already!!!
steamy.
i have go get groceries today.
don't you feel like that is all we do as moms?
buy the food. fix the food. clean up the food. repeat.
can't we all just eat cereal??
why is that frowned upon?
what is the big deal?!
blah.
we are having this for dinner tonight... take two.
i started making it on monday and was missing chicken broth.
so i will try again tonight.
alrighty.....i desperately want to go back to bed.
just for a bit.
but i am going to shower (i stink from runnning), get groceries and make one of the crafts for
the November craft weekend...and get one ready for my girls after school.
i am.
i can do it.
i am really sure.
GO MEG!
one more cup of coffee first.....
