I'm wearing my super soft Packers T-shirt today because they play tonight!!!
We are leaving for vacation when I get home from work. I'm hopeful I can sneak out a bit early because I want to get to the condo to see the game.
VACATION! Haven't had one since maternity leave and that was NOT a vacation. Even though going to beach with a baby and 4 year old is stressful, I'm hopeful we will have loads of fun and know we are going to eat soooo much good food! YAYYYYYYY! The dog is going to stay with my Ex-SIL, so I know she will be spoiled and loved and walked frequently. I miss her terribly already and hope she wants to come home when we get back!
My kids look adorable in their school uniforms - the plaid jumper on M just slays me.
Running makes me so happy, and I'm so proud of my body right now.
My training for the Chicago marathon is going really well. But ask me again on Monday after my 20-miler and maybe running will be my unhappy place, lol.
We're having dinner with my cousin and his boyfriend tomorrow night and I am so excited to go out!!
Napping makes me really happy, too. I just wish I had time to do it.
Oh, I have another one. DD is wonderful. She is just so freaking amazing. She has the funniest army crawl and her feet are hilarious in how the help her turn. The physical therapist gave us these special shorts that keep her thighs together more and they are so effective at helping her get her knees under her. She knows a few signs and is SO proud when she pats her big ol' belly. Her cackely laugh when she tries to attack her brother is the best thing ever.

Ritalin - artificial happy is better than depressed! DD is back to school today so I have the morning free! The fact that fall is coming (although with this heatwave, I'm not sure when!)
Tomorrow is Friday and we have so many fun weekend plans.
Fall is coming and it's my most favorite time of the year!
Spending time with friends lately, drinking, playing games and just having a good time. We've also made some awesome new friends in our new neighborhood. I've been loving sitting out on the decks on the weekends with snacks and beer and just laughing all night.
I finally gave up drinking soda. My face is getting clearer already. Next up, start working out again.
I'm starting a new project that's completely out of my wheelhouse. I've been dreading it but I'm actually having a really good time with it and it's an incredible opportunity that's been handed to me.
My sister just called and asked if we wanted tickets to the Broncos/Dolphins game! H has been looking for tickets since it's right after my birthday and I'm a die hard Phins fan, but we couldn't find any that were within our budget. These are well within our budget so we snapped them up! Sister and bil will be going with us! Happy birthday to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, ds's teacher told me today that he is doing awesome at day care. He cries for about 2 seconds after I leave and then he's happy and plays the rest of the day with no problems. This makes me extremely happy!
Dd started soccer this week and she seems to really be enjoying it! It was touch and go last season so I was a little worried, but h and mil both (they are the ones that have taken her to practices so far) said she had fun so fingers crossed it stays that way!

I'm going home to Chicago for the weekend tomorrow. I haven't been home since Father's Day/sister's wedding. I'm meeting up with my BFF and going to a concert on Saturday night.
This also means I get to eat alllll my favorite foods all weekend long.
My schedule. D gets dropped off in the morning. The girls in the afternoon.
Drawing. I had a spell of it going so-so, but things are going much better. It coincided with my painting my nails, weird. Yes, I am going to paint my nails from now on. I don't want to suck at drawing, lol.
I replied 10 sec too late to get free symphony tickets from work for Beethovan & shostakovich. BUT the girl who replied first is someone I work with fairly closely and have been getting friendly with and I was thinking she could be a new friend and she invited me to go with her!! She likes me!!! I'm all
- I might be starting a job in a tattoo shop and become their piercer soon. - My friend of 12 years, that I hadn't seen in 6, came to visit me this past weekend. - Said friend and I have decided that a relationship after all these years is a pretty neat idea. So, I'm not a single lady anymore. I'm super happy about this.
ETA: I almost forgot! My best friend got engaged at Dragoncon and is getting married really soon!
