A little torn…

So, for about the past month or so, I’ve been feeling a little torn…

I’ve been contstantly thinking about things and feeling things that I shouldn’t be thinking about and all that stuff.  Great, more drama..

I have a hard time concentrating at work at the tasks I have to do, but I can’t focus… My mind gets distracted and it’s probably not a good thing..  I have a secret… Ha, you thought I was going to tell you huh? I never asked for it to be that way, it just is.  It’s complicated…. VERY Complicated… I’m complicated…  Uggh, I hope guys like complicated girls…

I want to shout it out so bad that I want to burst at times.  But I have to keep my restraint and not open my mouth.  It’s so hard because I’m so podagee…  I like LOVE to talk…

There’s only one other person who knows my secret…. It probably doesn’t go farther than that one person…  Some people have tried guessing… I don’t *think* they know… Maybe they know…  Now I think is where it get’s awkward… :P

Here’s to 2009

So, I have many many goals for 2009.

I’m a little overwhelmed right now, or this feeling of something that I just can’t get rid of.  Ugghh.. I hate it..

Uggh.. Whatever..

Vita Mix

I’ve thought about it alot recently and I really want to purchase a Vita Mix Blender..

Ever since I’ve started eating Acai bowls and started making my own baby food, It seems pretty much like a no brainer.

My baby food now comes out a little chunk and not as “good” as I’d like it.  This thing even does POI and has the strength to make HOT soup!!  How nuts is that?

I’m on the hunt for the Vita Mix…

Black Friday

I’m so glad I’m off on Friday.  I plan on hitting up some of the malls and WALMART!!! They have some stuff I want on sale for really cheap, so I plan on taking full advantage of that.  :)   I’ll even see if I can do my shopping online.  Hopefully the shipping isn’t outrageous.

Baby Food

I’ve never done this before, but it’s so easy!! I’ve started making some of Shelby’s baby food.  She hasn’t tried what I’ve made, but hopefully she likes it.  so far I’ve only made carrots, but tonight (hopefully) i can make some green beans and some peas.  CROSS YOUR FINGERS!!!

Shutdown

Last night was horrible.. Completely and utterly HORRIBLE.  I came home from work yesterday feeling all achey and bleh…  I was also cold, that never happens when I’m at home..  So I change clothes, and I get everyone all squared away.  Then I put Shelby in her Exersaucer, and I lie on the couch…  I’m shaking because I was so cold.  I tried to pick up Shelby, but she felt so heavy and I was shaking profusely.  I was so scared because I didn’t know what was happening, or why I was feeling that way.

I let Shelby nurse so that she would fall asleep.. I think she did, and so did I.  I had a fever and it broke.  At like 3am, I woke up feeling much better, but still really tired.  Shelby was fussy all morning.  We went back to sleep and didn’t wake up until 6:45AM!!  Holy sht.

I think I need to take it easy this weekend.

History in the Making

So, last night the little princess and I watched the Elections and all that other good stuff.  I got kinda weepy when I started telling her about the Election and that we have a new President, etc..

In case you’ve been living under a rock for the last 22 months, we have a new President..  Barack Obama was elected the 44th President of the United States.  By a very LARGE (and outright) margin if I may add.

Thank goodness all this election stuff is PAU.
