Whatcha up to?

How have you been? Things here are going pretty good! Just cleaning and such. I should be cleaning right now, but hey, i can take a break right?

Do you ever feel like your house is never clean enough? I think that it may be because I am just dissatisfied with my things. Like I am trying to get it clean thinking it will make my place look better when in reality, I would love the money to be able to buy a few things for my home. I would like some lamps and some things for the walls, some shelves and a book shelf... those are just to start, i want an area rug for my living room! And i could go on and on and on, but I wont, lol.

I get to go shopping today to get myself a few shirts. I have been feeling like crap lately because I dont like any of my clothes. Plus a little extra poundage helps with that. I am going to try to loose some weight for Cancun! I am going to hit up a few stores near my house to see if I can put together a few outfits for cheap. That would make me feel so much better!

Well, I better get back to my chores, lol. Hope you have a fantastic day!

Sipping on some coffee!

I am sitting on my couch, with nursing my first cup of coffee of today. If you hadn't noticed yet, I love coffee. I honestly think it is what keeps me going on those days you just don't want to get out of bed. The Italian Sweet Cream... it calls to me!

I have been having a bout with cabin fever these past few days! I don't know why, I just want to be going, and doing. But mostly I think it's because I am out of meds right now and when i get by myself (without adult interaction) I get antsy. It was great last night that my best friend Merinda and her bf Andrew came over for a while. And I have plans tonight with another really close friend of mine, Jenny. She has a little boy right around Lance's age, and our husbands really get along as well, so we are making a family outing to dinner at Jen's house tonight! I am really looking forward to it.

Well, I'll write more later talking to Helen!!

Bad day

Wow, today has been one of those days so far for me. I am so irritated with everything. I do not have the patience with my son that I should, and although my cable was turned back on today, I can't get my TV to work. Sucks that I was just in the middle of a movie about 30 min ago and i didnt get to finish it.

Oh well.

As for my apartment, well, I thought it was getting clean, but I guess it will never be good enough... :/

Home Sweet Home!

After a much needed weekend away in good ole' Simpson, LA... I am home. I had such a good time visiting with my family, but I am glad to be home. So much to be done now that I am..

I have got to get this apartment clean! It is pretty much trashed. Laundry and dishes to be done not to mention just plain old cleaning.

On a lighter note, this is what Lance is getting for his birthday!

2009

Well, I sure hope that 2009 rocks the socks off of 2008. Lets just say that 2008 was pretty much the worst year of my life. Between the rocky roads of "Chris and I" and then my bipolar and borderline diagnoses, and my fall into a world of addiction, to the rise out, to the death of my mother... I pray that good things come to me in 2009.

Besides the fact that at the moment I am sitting at home by myself with a toddler, it holds promise. I am heading out tomorrow morning to visit family in Louisiana. I will be there until Sunday. I havn't been "back home" in forever. I wasn't born there, but I used to go there every summer and to me it's always felt like home.

Tonight, i dont have any plans. New Years Eve and I don't have a baby sitter so I can't go out. Chris, however, may. I don't know yet.

Thats all for now! I hope you all have a great night! Have a drink for me!

CANCUN!

So.... my best friend Merinda, remember her? I told you that if you followed you would hear a lot about her. Well, a few months ago, she mentioned to me that her "granny" had a time share condo in none other than Cancun, Mexico! And the great part was that she offered her week this summer to Merinda and her bf Andrew! Well, they invited me and Chris. We didnt know if we were going to be able to go for sure because she didnt know exactly what week and the guys have to ask off for work WELL in advance to make sure they can get off. So guess what? She called yesterday with the date! WE ARE GOING TO CANCUN!

I am so excited!

We are staying at the Royal Caribbean Resort! She is coming over today to keep an eye on Lance while I apply for jobs because we need extra money if we are going to make cancun!

Obsession of mine.

I LOVE to organize things with plastic bins and containers. I mean I LOVE LOVE LOVE plastic bins and containers. I have five bins under my bathroom counter. One for lotions, one for face products, one for Chris' clipper set, and one for feminine products. Ok, I guess there are 4. BUT there is a plastic container of baby wipes on the end. I have them in my pantry, in my laundry room, in my pantry and of course my closet. I bought two new new ones last night and I was happy. They make me happy. Idk why. They were for Lance's room. He got probably 100 matchbox sized cars for Christmas, so one was for those, and then he got a kitchen food set so he can "help" mommy so I got one for that.

Another obsession of mine are shoes, I realize that this is my biggest material love and I have never touched down on it. It's bad guys... i have shoes that I have never worn. I buy shoes even if I have nothing to wear with them. When I go shopping for a new outfit, I pick out the shoes first. All the money that I get to spend on myself, goes to shoes. If it has a heel you bet I will love it, especially if it is a stiletto heel. OMG, I am getting excited about just typing about them...*sigh* I have a kohls gift card... think I might hit up the shoe department first, whatdya think?
