my bill

I tell ya – this is the greatest way to start my day off. My Dad is so awesome. He’s super sweet, working on my house, fixing walls and adding walls so I have another bedroom. I love getting my bills from him because they are super hilarious.

Thanks to my brother for fixing this for me so it’s easier to read now – it was a mess before! Love ya bro!

brrrrrrrrr…….

This is what the weather report says:
Snow this morning will give way to snow this afternoon.

Why don’t they just say it’s going to freakin snow ALL day and ALL night and it’ll be blowing and drifting ALL day and ALL night. Wind chill is -12 right now, tomorrow it’s supposed to be -25! Damn I love living in Montana. BUT I am extremely lucky because so many people love me so much! I didn’t have to get out this morning to take my son to school nor do I have to get out to pick him up, friends did it for me and my husband will pick him up on his way home. So here I’ll be in my cozy little office trying to stay warm and make my deadline. I told one of my co-workers today that I’m in my basement, the only heat is from my little space heater (they didn’t put heat ducts down here) and I have plastic on my window so I can’t see out. She said that reminded her of that movie Misery. haha It’s really not that bad – but I would sure love to get me a laptop so I could go upstairs and work sometimes.

Also my question of the day is……
Is it….. jump-roping or jumping-rope?

weird things tag

I’ve been tagged by Freckle Face Girl and here are the rules:

Each player of this game starts with the “6 weird things about you.” People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don’t forget to leave a comment that says “you are tagged” in their comments and tell them to read your blog.

6 Weird Things About Me

1. I believe I am only 1 of 2 people in the world who says the toilet paper roll goes on to wrap UNDERneath :P (The other person is my Mom.)
2. I just learned on Turkey Day that I pour/drink juice the same as my Dad. We pour a full glass, take a drink and then fill it up again right away and then put the juice away.
3. I have a routine in the shower and if I mess it up I have to start all over again, otherwise I forget what I’ve done and it just doesn’t feel right.
4. Unless I am walking my big toe is always crossed over the top of my next toe.
5. I worry constantly, about anything and everything.
6. I am a neat freak, however if you walk in my office it looks like a tornado ripped through it.

I tag: A Comedienne’s Sidekick, Life is a Learning Experience, Lookin’ 4 Love in all the Wrong Places, Shootin’ the Poop, Through Thick n Thin, Everything I know about hiking… I learned wearing flip flops

first doctor appt

Yesterday was my first actual doctors appt. It went well. I was nervous about seeing a male gyno, but he appears to be a really good doctor and I wasn’t as uncomfortable with him as I thought I would be. Okay so I didn’t want to spread my legs….. he kept saying a little more, a little more, he was surely getting only a little more each time he said that, like along the lines of 1 cm more. But we got through it, me feeling like I had to pee the entire time. I have a fibroid pushing on my bladder I found out yesterday. So by the time he was done doing the ultrasound I was ready to pee my pants on the floor and strangle him because it was so uncomfortable. We’ll be watching that – hopefully it’s nothing major. I’m the world’s biggest worrier so of course I’m terrified of anything little thing that’s not exactly right. On a better note, the ultrasound was fun as always, getting to see baby in there. I didn’t see my son until I was about 5 months along, so it was neat to see the baby at only 7 or 8 weeks yesterday. I say 7 or 8 because he thinks we may be a week off so I may only be 7 weeks along instead of 8. I’m going back in 2 weeks to do another ultrasound and hopefully get a better idea of how far along I actually am. My last normal period was late, so it’s possible we are a little off. I have no morning sickness so that’s always a plus while being pregnant – I feel for those of you who are sick on top of being pregnant. I LOVE being pregnant, but the depression sucks! Hopefully I can kick these crappy feelings soon.

On another note……… did I get any sleep last night……. better than the night before, but not the greatest. First of all, my husband and I are going to have to do something about our sleep schedules. I go to bed at 9 pm and usually fall asleep fast at that time. If I get woke up after I fall asleep the first time I’m screwed. Which is exactly what happens because he’ll come to bed much later and then I spend the rest of the night trying to get comfortable again and trying to settle down again and go to sleep. Ugggg…….. When I finally did go back to sleep I woke up at exactly 1:12, my husband was telling me something in his sleep and I had to pee. I don’t know why but I wake up every night at 1:12 – what the heck is up with that! So after being awake once again – I was completely screwed for the remainder of the night, I spent my time tossing and turning and staring at the ceiling and thinking (aaaah thinking…… it’s what I do best and usually end up doing too much of). But(!) NO dogs last night! Yeah!

sleepy *yawning*

Today I’m trying to think of something to do that’ll get me in trouble and maybe my boss will send me to my room :-) Then I can sleep! I’m so freakin tired. I swear I pee on the hour at night – I’m not even drinking anything(!) where the hell is it all coming from! Aaaaah!! I seriously can’t even concentrate right now – I’m staring at my computer screen in an attempt to work and it’s blank, I know I have work open, but it’s blank. I also got to listen to the yappy little *#!hole dogs across the alley barking last night. I threw the covers back because I was going to get up, go shut them the *#!* up and then grab the phone book on the way back and call the jerks who let them out. You know ask them how their night is, how they like being woke up at like 3 am and then tell them every single time I get woke up they will too. *Update – Wow I’m so tired I forgot to finish this…… before I could get out of bed, my husband was up and out the back door. Thanks honey.* I even tried to take a nap yesterday evening, my son wanted me to watch a movie with him. I’m thinking sweet(!) sure I’ll watch a movie with you (but I was really thinking sure you watch a movie and I’ll take a nap). This was a good idea until I fell asleep and had that feeling that someone was staring at me – it was my son, staring at me, letting me know I fell asleep. Thanks – argggggg. Okay, I’m going to try this again – I’ll turn my head this way, maybe he won’t notice. Right….. I can hear a tap tap tap…… tap tap tap…… dammit what’s a woman gotta do to get a little sleep around this place. He was tapping his fingers on his chair letting me know once again that I had fallen asleep. He kept saying geesh Mom stay awake so we can watch this. So after this little attempt to get a nap and watch a movie he wanted to look at one of those eye spy books, wonderful, yep I’m seeing straight – come on man! So after searching for all the Monsters Inc. characters and cars and whatever else they decided to hide we finally went to bed. Just as I was dozing off I hear Mooooooommmmm. What? I’m thirsty. So go get a drink of water. Ok. *Mumbling* Now why the hell did he have to wake me up for that. Arrrrrrrggggggg……… I hope ya’ll are having a better day than me.
