PG 28 Weeks 4 Days - "People Eat at Rita's"...

So I have the Rita's Water Ice commercial (I think this is only a Philly area franchise) running through my head as we went there last night for a snack/craving. Mmmmmmm. Mango water ice. I was craving it before we left for Phoebe's ice skating class. I'm so proud of her too! She officially passed both the Delta levels during this session and is now officially in the Freestyle levels. In the big leagues now! So happy for her! She worked so hard in ice skating over the past few months. I talked to Leo about going to Rita's after her class and he was gratefully on board. I'm so uncomfortable and cranky this week, I think he just wants to make me happy. We didn't tell Phoebe until we pulled into the parking lot and I was in heaven eating my mango water ice. Phoebe even commented on how I went from totally cranky to "so happy I'm singing commercials and practically dancing". Phoebe was having commitment issues and kept going back and forth from eating her vanilla soft-serve ice cream cone and trading with her Aunt Niki for her mango water ice. I tucked her into bed and she was complaining about her stomach aching. I told her that I didn't think it was a good idea to eat ice cream and water ice at the same sitting and that's what probably caused it. But she was so cute. Her response was "But they were both so good!!!"

The weather here is miserable. I'm sick of rain. I already want to sleep all the time and the dreary skies and rain aren't helping. It doesn't look like it'll be changing until Mother's Day rolls around.

Sorry for the Rain.
Water Ice is so great!! Yeah for Philly. I got a sympathy bellyache for Phoebe, mango water ice and vanilla ice cream, ugh.
Mango ice water sound deliciously refreshing minus the rain ;-)

Water ice sounds absolutely fantastic! I've never had the pleasure of trying it, but I'm thinking it's similar to a "Sno-Cone?" I've been addicted to popsicles during this pregnancy, so anything icy/slushy/frozen is right up my alley!

Booooo for the rain! Here's hoping the sun decides to shine on you...and soon! *hugs*

Sounded good but had never heard of R.itas or Mango water ice... looked up the locations & there's a few in our state... one near the RE office so that might be an "after RE visit" treat sometime:] Hope you get some sunshine soon- always improves my mood! BTW- do you happen to have Merlot/Trace's address- would like to send a congrats card...my email is mmm_28@yahoo.com if you would prefer to respond by email. Take Care!!!

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.
