Ready for the Weekend

I'm so ready for the weekend! It's Friday afternoon. I'm here at work. Lots of things are at a standstill. I started getting AF this morning. It's 3-4 days early. That means this was a 23 - 24 day cycle. Hopefully my herbs will start kicking in the next few months and straighten that out. I've been eating lots of healthy foods: oatmeal at breakfast (no sugar with raisins), lentil and rice soup for lunch, and trying to make nice dinners at night. Other than the ice cream I've been allowing myself at night for family dessert and the 1-2 cups of coffee a day I'm still needing. I've been OK. I need to cut those out though.

Tom will be in NYC overnight for work. They're doing some kind of power thing out there. So it's just Phoebe and I tonight. I've planned for us to go grocery shopping tonight and then get lots of cleaning and clean up some papers at home. Hopefully it will be a productive evening. We're picking up Tom at the train station tomorrow at 7 AM. That'll get us up and moving early.

We're also going up to the builders to start picking out our selections for tile, carpeting, cabinets, and the like. It's a two hour appointment. Hopefully the selection will be to our liking.

Hope everyone has a good weekend.

Bouncing Back From Depression

I've been pretty depressed lately. Monday I hit my all time low, which coincidentally was also my dad's birthday. Needless to say I'm sure I'm on his not favorite child list as I forgot to call him I was so depressed. This whole two mortgage thing with no contract in site is really frustrating. Especially when lots of other houses on our block are selling. Our house is really very lovely, just no pool. It has a really flat backyard perfect for putting a pool in though. Anyway, on Monday, Mom called to make sure I didn't forget to call Dad and tell me she read my blog over the weekend and sent me an email about it. Sorry, Mom, I still have yet to check my emails to see what you had to say. Mom told me I needed to bury a statue of St. Joseph in the yard to get it to sell quicker. Wish I knew that sooner. I was going to wait for her to mail me hers, but yesterday I got really mad at myself and wanted to do something to improve my situation, so I found the nea

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni

Phoebe's Fifth Grade School Picture

Here's Phoebe's 5th Grade School Picture.  I really like her in red or bright colors.  She's definitely becoming quite the little lady.
