flashing cursors

It just keeps blinking at me. The cursor. Waiting. Impatiently for me to write something. I can’t think of anything to say. I end up staring into space and thinking of all the stupid things I have rolling around in my head, but even they get boring to talk about rolling around in there. I’m in a funk. Time to go and see the doctor again. *sigh* This is a yearly cycle I can’t ignore. SAD maybe? I don’t know. I think I would prefer to call it anything else but depression. I just need some sunshine and warmth. I’m cold all the time and tired….who wouldn’t be depressed?

sorry to be such a downer…if it wasn’t for American Idol, I think I would move to Siberia.

She’ll be coming ’round the mountain…again…

It’s been a while since I posted. It’s not that I don’t have anything to say, ( I think I would have to be dead not to have anything to say ) I guess I am just in suspend mode. I read that yesterday was statistically “the most depressing day of the year” for most people. The weather, coming out of the holidays, and financial burdens from Christmas..yeah I can understand that. We are in tight budget mode. I think subconsiously I am not leaving the house because 1. I don’t trust myself not to spend any money, and 2. even if I did go out, I would want to buy something and I know I can’t. So I just stay close to my house. With that are pitfalls. Choosing to stay home means more opportunity to sleep in, stay in my jammies and watch endless hours of craft shows (much to MJ’s annoyance).
What I really want to do is go to the hardware store. I have a small list of things I would like to buy there. Nothing fancy, just some supplies to make some cool stuff with. Like washers and bailing wire and I really want a hog ring plier, but that is more expensive. Hey, don’t look at me like that. I have caught the creative bug and it kills me that I can’t just go out and get some neat stuff and try it. I don’t expect to sell anything that I make, I just like to make it. It’s the process of doing it that is the most fun, well, that and the shopping for it.

Anywhoo….I apparently think that posting on my blog isn’t free and I am on a tight budget you know…even with my thoughts. Besides, it’s pretty boring around here anyway…do you really want to hear all about it? Circle YES or NO.

Things that make you go Ewww…

Dear Auntie Leslie,

I just wanted you to know I gave up my pillow. It was really hard to do it. I was watching TV with Mommy and Lauren and Brenna, we were watching Oprah. A woman was talking about how many years she slept with her pillows, 30 years! That’s gross. I haven’t had mine for that long! There was a man on there who vacuumed up the stuff from inside her mattress and pillows.He was a scientist and was going to test everything for germs. He said that there was lots of dirt and dust in there and some creepy things called Dust Mites.  When I saw the picture of the little bugs crawling around, I threw down my stained and stinky pillow and said I would never sleep with it again. In fact, I didn’t even want to touch it. I told Mommy I needed a new pillow and then Daddy took me to Wal-Mart and got me a new one. It doesn’t have feathers in it like the last one, but it still feels like it does. I have a pillow case on it too because I never want to touch the dust mites again!

I knew you would be soo happy to hear my good news!

Love, Danny Daniel
P.S.  I did great during my basketball game! Talk to you later!!

Ho Hum

My life is boring. Chores, laundry, and cooking. Same day different shit.**(Editors Note)** Same shit different day..man, I can’t even think clearly! Not a whole lot to report. Fight with hubby woke the kids up. Oops. I think I am going to get my period. See what you have been missing? Not a whole lot.

MJ sees the pediatric ortho tomorrow to see if he really did have a fracture in his elbow, hopefully his cast can come off and he will be as good as new. I am not sure how they handle physical therapy for 4 year olds.

I guess Im just to white and nerdy to have anything good to say. Peace out, yo.

I guess I should update….

It’s been a while…I’ve been a little busy, with Christmas preperations, traveling, Christmas, traveling, New Years, etc. Now I am catching up with all the things I left behind to go to Missouri. I feel so inspired to create, I have gone out and spent waaaay too much money on beads and wire and fun stuff. I’m going to start making jewelry to sell throughout the year instead of the week before. I have made two rings and a pair of earrings so far and I will post the pictures of what I make. I’ll keep ya posted.

I don’t have any new years resolutions per say, but I am watching what I eat and after the first 2 days of being “Oz”ified, I was starving and broke down and ate 4 rice cakes and a ding dong. I need to be eating at more regular intervals. One step at a time. I didn’t get fat all at once, and I won’t get healthy all at once either.
I am eating a new find. Lavash bread. Its a transfat, cholesterol free flat bread with flax, and whole wheat. It tastes pretty good. 1 whole wrap which is about 12 inches long and 7 inches wide is only 200 calories. 2 slices of turkey and 1 slice of good havarti cheese and some romain lettuce and 2 tbs. of ranch dressing and I am good to go. I even let myself have 1 serving of salt and vinegar lays potato chips, as they are now made with sunflower oil instead of all those nasty hydrogonated fats…only once a week tho am I going to have chips with lunch. Moderation. I think that way, I wont feel deprived.

anyway….Happy New Year to everyone. I hope yours is filled with all the people you love, goals you want to reach, and the faith to get you through.
