Tuesday Blahs
Ugh, I have a nice shirt on today and I just looked down and realized I spilled coffee on it. A great way to start my Tuesday! Damn cheap travel mug.
Well we are all feeling much better which is great. It took Mike a long time to kick it, but he still went pheasant hunting with some buddies this weekend. I took Paige to my parents and it was a long weekend. My sister was there too and we fought all weekend. It's extremely frustrating that I'm 30 years old, have a successful career, a wonderful husband and child, and my sister makes me feel like I'm a kid again, and we fight like we always did growing up. I love her a lot, but jeez louise that girl drives me nuts.
I escaped Saturday to shop and make a bunch of returns. I had to return stuff to Walmart, Target, Kohls, and Joann Fabrics. Of course I ended up spending money at each place except Joann's. I got Paige a couple of pairs of 4T pants THAT FIT HER!!! I can't believe how fast she keeps growing. I hit the jackpot at Old Navy for Mike. They had a bunch of men's pants on clearance and then 50% off the clearance price, so I got hime 6 pairs of pants! One pair was $5.74 and the rest were $9.99. WHO HOO!!! He needed pants really badly so I hope they all fit him. He seemed to like them all, he just hasn't tried them on yet. I also got him (well and me too) 4 long sleeved t-shirts at this outlet store near my parents house, buy one for $5, and the 2nd is half off. SCORE!! I also got myself this hoodie that I might end up returning: http://www.oldnavy.com/browse/product.do?cid=26196&pid=480441
I might exchange it for the dark chocolate brown one. Knowing me, I'll spill food all over the white one and stain it.
I also got the official "mom of a toddler uniform": the velour tracksuit. Here it is: http://www.oldnavy.com/browse/product.do?cid=26198&pid=400799
http://www.oldnavy.com/browse/product.do?cid=26198&pid=400830
I got them in the bead blue color. I really like the pink one too. And get this, I got them specificially for my mom's group get-togethers! They are so comfortable.
Our other big news is that Paige picked out four packages of big girl underwear on Friday! She had so much fun. I laid out like 8 different packages and told her she could pick 4 and she was so good about it. She got Dora, Little Mermaid, Little Pony and Disney Princesses. We of course had to make a big deal about it and she loved showing them off to my parents and to Mike. She's such a big girl! She is doing so good with the potty. I'm so proud of her!
Alright, time to start getting some work done. Hugs and kisses ya yas!

Update on the Yuckies
Thanks to all my ya yas who made my day by posting 6 comments on my yuckie blog. You girls really cheered me up!
Anyway, I'm back at work and just got done meeting with my boss so my to do list is as long as my arm. Not cool.
We are both feeling better. Mike is still not 100%, but I'm just fine now. Stubborn old mule never did take Immodium and he's feeling it. I'm still a little PO'd that he told me he did, but whatever, if he wants to poop every 5 minutes instead of chewing up 2 tablets, it's his problem, not mine.
I have a mom's night out with my playgroup tonight at an Atlanta Bread Company so that should be fun. It's called "Ask Anything Over Coffee" and we're going to write down questions anonymously about any subject and we'll answer them. Should be a lot of fun. Tomorrow is a lunch at one of the mom's houses so I have to figure out something to bring and make it tonight.
Paige is still in full-on drama queen mode but I'm feeling better that we are not alone. Susan, I told Mike that Jenna tells you that you hurt her feelings and we both got a good chuckle out of that, but in a nice way. It was more like thank God Paige doesn't do that!
I'm going to my parent's house for the weekend after the mom's lunch tomorrow. Paige will have to miss her nap, but Grandma and Grandpa should be able to handle her just fine. I'm sure she'll be her usual angelic self at their house; she's a total angel for them and a hellion for me. Drives me nuts. We're going to stop somewhere on the way and let her pick out some of her own big girl underwears as she calls them. I would love it if they made Cars underwear for little girls, but I doubt it.
I ate leftover soup that I made last night and a banana for lunch with a Diet Mountain Dew. Aren't I healthy? I think I've already gotten my fruit intake for the day with my raspberry-banana smoothie and a banana for lunch. The soup had veggies in it too.
Off to tackle my to-do list. An hour and a half and I'm outta here for the weekend. WHO HOO!!!!

Yuckies
So the stomach bug has hit our house yet again. I started with it around 10pm last night. I puked once, and had the runs about 100 times. Luckily the Immodium finally kicked in and I haven't pooped all day. TMI, I know, but tough! I took Paige to the sitters and stayed home from work. I slept most of the day, and am feeling much better. Unfortunately, Mike called around 4:45pm on his way home from work and said he has the same thing I have. Great. I was still feeling pretty weak and out of it when we called so I was wondering how I was going to take care of Paige and bathe her since it's her bath night. But I started to slowly feel better and toughed it out. Poor guy had the poops for a while and then passed out a few hours ago. He has the chills really bad and looks terrible. I hate it when he's sick.
Paige has been very difficult to handle lately. This sounds terrible but she has turned into such a crybaby. Today I grabbed her hat and mittens out of her cubby at the sitter's, turn around to put them on her and she's bawling her head off because she wanted to get them. UGH!!!!! So she cried the whole time I got her jacket and stuff on, the way out to the car and the whole way home. She asks for something, I say no, she asks for it again like she didn't even hear me say no, I say no a little (OK, a lot) more firmly and she busts out crying. It's constant and it's starting to get really really really old.
On a happier note, we finally joined the rest of the world and have high speed internet!!! WHO HOO!!! We got it installed on Friday and are LOVING it! I can actually upload pictures and send them out from home instead of putting them on a CD and sending from work. Ah, the little things.
AF came with a vengence over the weekend which really chapped my ass. Old bitch came like 3-4 days early which is super annoying when we're ttc and my cycles are getting shorter and shorter. AF when not on birth control really sucks the big one.
OK, off to check on my sick hubby and then hit the hay. Hugs and kisses to my ya yas!

TheMany Meanings of PMS
Another good email!
The many meanings of P-M-S:
1. P ass M y Shotgun
2.P sychotic M ood S hift
3.P erpetual M unching S pree
4. P uffy M id- S ection
5.P eople M ake me S ick

11.P lainly; M en S uck
12. P ack M y S tuff
.and my favorite one..
13.
P otential M urder S uspect
And as an example
Q: How many women with PMS does it take to change a light bulb?
A: One!!! ONLY ONE!!!! And do you know WHY?
Because no one else in this house knows HOW to change a light bulb!
They don't even know that the bulb is BURNED OUT!!
They'd sit there in the dark for THREE DAYS before they figured it out!!
And, once they figured it out, they wouldn't be able to find the light bulbs despite the fact they've been in
the SAME CUPBOARD for the past 13 YEARS!
But if they did, by some miracle of God, actually find the bulbs 2 DAYS LATER, the chair they dragged to
stand on to change the STUPID light bulb would STILL BE IN THE SAME SPOT!!!!!
AND UNDERNEATH IT WOULD BE THE WRAPPER THE STUPID LIGHT BULBS CAME IN!!!
BECAUSE NO ONE EVER CARRIES OUT THE GARBAGE!!!!
IT'S A WONDER WE HAVEN'T ALL SUFFOCATED FROM THE PILES OF GARBAGE THAT ARE A FOOT DEEP THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE HOUSE!!
IT WOULD TAKE AN ARMY TO CLEAN THIS DAMNED HOUSE!
I'm sorry.

10 Things to Ponder in 2007
Got this in an email and it's hilarious!
TEN THINGS TO PONDER FOR 2007
10.Life is sexually transmitted.
9.Good health is merely the slowest rate at which one can die.
8. Men have two emotions: Hungry and Horny. If you see him without an erection, make him a sandwich.
7. Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks.
6. Some people are like a slinky... not really good for anything,but you still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs.
5. Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in the hospital dying of nothing.
4. All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.
3. Why does a slight tax increase cost you two hundred dollars, and a substantial tax cut saves you thirty cents?
2. In the 60's, people took LSD to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.
AND THE NUMBER ONE THOUGHT FOR 2007:
We know exactly where one cow with mad-cow-disease is located among the millions and millions of cows in America , but we haven't a clue as to where thousands of Illegal immigrants and Terrorists are located. Maybe we should put the Department of Agriculture in charge of immigration.

Pajamas and Potty Training
So I just finished another pair of PJ's for my sister's birthday and sent them out today. They are so cute, I wish I would've made them in my size! I hope she likes them, I think she will.
Paige is off of the pullups now and only wearing cotton training pants! I want to take her shopping sometime to let her pick out her own big girl panties. She's staying dry during her naps, but still wears a diaper to bed. I think nighttime training is going to take a while, but I'm so excited at how well she's doing!
My dad's trial is now delayed until JUNE!!!! UGH!!!! I guess it's ok, because they are combining the two charges into one trial so we only have to go through this crap once. I just can't believe how slowly our legal system works. It will be a year and 3 months after the first charges by the time the trial starts.
Christmas and New Year's were so hectic with all the traveling so we are glad to be home. Christmas involved a lot more travel, on Christmas Eve, we went to 5 or 6 different houses and church. We spent New Year's weekend up north with Mike's family so it wasn't as much running around. Saturday at his moms, Sunday at his dad's and we got home on Monday afternoon. Paige did so well at all the places, she was very well behaved and did so good with the potty training. She didn't make a fuss about going in all these different places and didn't have an accident. She held up better than I did! She got quite a few presents so Mike and I spent last week Tuesday (a day off for both of us) cleaning out the clutter. Paige went to the sitter's so we packed up a bunch of old toys, moved her upstairs toys into the basement and kept her new toys in her room. We also took the changing table out of her room and it looks so much bigger now! We finally set up all that dolly stuff that we got her in the basement and made Paige her own little pretend house area. Her play kitchen, the dolly stuff, a pretend cleaning cart, a Little Tikes mailbox and a table and 2 chairs are all in a corner in the basement. She LOVES it! And I love not having her play kitchen and other toys in the living room! I actually have a toy free living room! It rules!!!! Well except for her art supplies box that we keep on a shelf in the entertainment center, but I can handle that.
I got a + ovulation predictor last week so Mike and I got after it. My boobs have been sore ever since and I have been a real bitch to everyone around me. I also almost puked when Paige pooped one day and normally it doesn't bother me that much. So of course I'm hopeful, but this 2 week wait is KILLING me!! I can't believe I have to wait another week to know. Grrrrr.....
I got a Magic Bullet for Christmas which is something I've been dying for ever since I saw the infomercial for it! I made a strawberry-banana smoothie today for breakfast and it was so yummy. I felt so healthy having 2 kinds of fruit for breakfast. It was a nice morning because Mike took Paige to Sandi's so I could get ready in peace and quiet. I think we might have to make that a permanent thing.
OK, yayas tell me if you're a good driver. Check out this website: http://www.107.peugeot.co.uk/peugeot.swf
It's a good waste of time!
