I found a couple really awesome houses over the past couple days, but they are too expensive right now. I realized last night that us buying a car has actually hurt our home-buying goal, but it is probably a better deal in the long run to fill the auto

About 11:30 last night, I woke up to a really loud crack of thunder . . . and realized we had to do something with our golden so she wouldn't get freaked out again. Well, DH went outside and she had already crawled up into the woodpile and was stuck under

We had a nice weekend. I spent a lot of time busting sod to make my flowerbeds bigger. Of course, now we are having tons of rain . . . Speaking of which, we lost our golden Saturday. It started to thunderstorm, but the doggies were wet so I didn't let

Our dachshund I love this pic when you zoom in - you can see the raindrops on the tulip bud

So DH plays on a team in the community softball league (I am a part of the small cheering section). We decided to take our golden yesterday and bring our doxie next week. Well, our golden LOVES little kids! I don't think she's ever really been around

So now I am terrified that we can’t afford a baby . . . DH saw an article on childcare in our local area and sent it to me (which I thought was a sign that he’s okay with everything), but it was kind of scary. Evidently there are not nearly enough daycares

DH is in love - with our new camera. We got the D40 last night with the extra kit (zoom lens, camera bag, how-to dvds), and he spent the rest of the night playing with it. I got to take a whole one picture with it, but we are really impressed considering

After just two days of eating badly, I'm ready to ditch watching calories and exercising. I know now is the time I need to keep on it, so keep on keeping on. I am making chicken stirfry tonight, and I've resolved to actually do some things instead of

Next Week???!!! Why is it when you need to go to the doctor they can't fit you in, but when you hope they say it'll be a few weeks that they get you in right away?? Oh, well, at least it'll be taken care of. And my release form is back to the pediatrician

So the weekend was actually surprisingly pleasant (at least with DH's fam). MIL only lectured me twice about drinking regular soda and only once about going to the doctor. And then, from the woman who didn't want us to have kids for a good number of years,

until I can sneak out (a few minutes early). The server is soooooo sloooowwwww this afternoon - I can't even type one letter without having to play a game of freecell while the document reloads. Someone definitely forgot to feed the hampsters, and they

It occured to me this morning that the reason I haven't had any weight loss is because I weigh myself after exercising, eating, and drinking in the morning. Perhaps if I weight right when I get up before gymming, the scale might read more favorably. Maybe

One of my best friends called me today while I was at work. We hadn't talked in months except for a stray email - and those were few. Both of my best friends are married to military men and are stationed far away - Mississippi and Hawaii. I ended up working

we are leaving TTC in God's hands . . . just having fun and see what happens. Of course, now that we're actually doing this, I'm beginning to be freaked out. I have a weird need to ask DH if he's really okay with it - I don't want him to feel forced.

The wedding was gorgeous . . . I didn't get many pics of the ceremony because we were crammed in the corner of the pew (the usher doesn't know seating courtesy and brought people up the center of the aisle and then made me shove down from my good picture-getting

Why is it when you need a specific item of clothing, you can't find it? I realized the other day that I have no spring/fall light jacket that will look nice with work clothes. The coats I have are a Columbia winter coat (casual), a wool winter work coat,

So I'm doing the Nest 6 month shape up. Have it all on my calendar. Actually I've been doing a bit more than required so far, but I'm going to stick to it. This business of gaining 10-15lbs every winter and losing it in the summer has to stop. Weight
