Saturday Nights...

Not all that they are cracked up to be anymore! Especially when you spend them sorting, washing and folding laundry! But such is life and I would rather being doing this than not having any kids.

Ugh...

So I got another new laptop... Second one in a week. Why you might ask??? Well because the first one I got, a Dell mini took about 30 minutes to load a website:( Not a good thing considering that I pretty much only use it to go online. So we took it back and now I have an HP Mini. So far so good, but have only been using it for about 1 hour. Lets home this one is quicker than the last or I am gonna give up and start reading the newspaper and buying gossip magazines again! Well not really but maybe making empty threats will keep this one up to speed! Any way, where I live it has been down to -40 degrees wind chill this past month! Well today it is about 45 so like any other normal Minnesotan , we have our windows open, short sleeves on and were outside playing chalk and hop scotch! Heat wave! Love it. Just hoping this isn't so sort of tease and we all of a sudden get a freezing blast again next week. I love my state but I would be lying if I said I love the 6 month + winters...
Today was a weird day starting out. I recently got my Mirena IUD out on January 22nd... I HATED it. Well I loved not having a period for 2 years, well more than that because I was kinda pregnant for the 2 years before that. But I whole heartedly believe it made me a fat bitch. I was always crabby, able to snap on a dime and I couldn't lose weight! I was going to the gym 5+ days a week and nothing was happening! Pretty depressing. So I did my research and decided to get it out! Good move! Lost 14 lbs already, mood has completely improved and all around I feel a ton better. The down side... Aunt Flo came back with avenges today! Didn't miss her. I actually thought I was pregnant again despite being n OCP's now. She was supposed to be here on Saturday. Nope no baby just miserable old Aunt Flo!
Well thought I would jot down a thought or two on my new laptop... Till next time!

Thursdays...

Usually people get excited to have the weekend approaching, I on the other hand dread it. Wednesday is when it starts for me because I work Wednesday night, Thursday night, Friday night and then on Saturday morning... I look forward to Sundays! Then I have 3 days off in a row! Now that is something to get excited about! Wednesday is usually when the house starts to fall apart as well. Mostly because I don't feel like cleaning at 11pm and then in the morning I am tired and just generally want to relax. My hubby does his best to help out at night picking up after the girls are in bed but he also wants to relax... Who doesn't?!?
For the last few weeks we have been attempting to potty train our 2 year old. Our first was uber easy and she was completely trained 2 weeks after her second birthday. This time around it is a little more challenging. She seems completely uninterested. We have purgo flooring downstairs so I have taken to the approach of letting her go pant less. Needless to say I have been cleaning up a (not so) nice share of accidents. I can usually catch her mid stream, run her to the bathroom and she finishes in there. I just wish she would get the concept of going into the bathroom before starting! Hopefully it will catch on soon! It would be nice to not have to buy diapers! I am thinking if we have more kids I am gonna try cloth. Well first I will have to decide if I will be able to stick with it because I don't want to invest a ton of money on something I am going to give up on after a few days or even weeks. Not to mention it would be a whole lot nice to Miss Mother Earth.
Well I guess I should start making some dinner plans... I have no idea what to make, I am thinking anything but Italian would be good. We had Zuppa Tascana on Monday and Bake Ziti last night so I am kinda Italianed out:) Maybe some Tater Tot Hot dish, nom nom nom! Alright farewell for now.

Hello again...

Well I guess you can say it has been awhile!!! But hey, I am a busy gal! Currently I am working at 2 clinics nights and weekends and continuing to be a stay at home mom! I guess I have a lot on my plate, but, I love it! I am so lucky to be able to stay home with my little girls all day long. I get to mold them into my own little beans:) My husband is now working from home as of October 2010. Living in a 2 bedroom town home, I hope you could see how this makes things difficult. Hopefully in the next few months we can find a bigger house more suitable for our little family:)
