You're Beautiful!
Or so I thought she said. My Annie, in her almost 3 year old drawl, actually said "You're Puter fell." And there was my laptop, On the ground.
I'ma Runnin!
Thanks to C25K, the Couch to 5k program, I'm finally running! I've been needing to do this for a long time, and I'm finally making the time for me. For me to do it! And I'm actually enjoying it! Not only am I doing something healthy for me, I'm getting oh so important quiet time, and time with hubsy, too.
And not only that, but it's giving my children a break from me as well!
I noticed immediately after my first workout that I was in a better mood and had more patience, and that continued after each workout. I was able to make it to the gym 4 times this week. I think I'm going to take it easy tomorrow, and then on to W2D1 on Monday!
Oh, and I'm down 4.5 pounds!

The United States is a Republic, Not a Democracy
I'm sure this video over-simplifies a bit, but it I still think it's important to understand!

Change in Day Care was Good, I Think
After pulling my children out of daycare, I was in a mad dash to find new arrangements for Annie; I was lucky that I could bring her to work with me Thursday and Friday since the boss was out of town. I can't do it this week!
Not only did I find a place, but they are actually open 30 minutes later than the former daycare. Yes, 30 whole minutes. But that 30 minutes will make all the difference in the world for me. I will now have Mommy Time! I will have a whole 60 minutes after work before I need to pick her up (the other 30 is drive time). And what is right next door to her new daycare? That's right, a Snap Fitness gym.
I've been wanting to try this C25K program for a long time. Couch to 5K. It's to help people who have never run, begin a running regimen. But I seriously could not find any consistent time to do it. Because of hubsy's schedule, if I'm not at work, I'm with the kids. No girl time, no alone time, no nothing.
But now I get an entire hour! On days I don't go to the gym, I can actually get a manicure! I am so excited I can't contain myself!

Just Bought Hubsy a Little Something
Ok, very little, but he'd mentioned it a couple of times, I just finally remembered. We watch Bill O'Reilly before he goes to work at night, and he mentioned wanting to get a Bill O'Reilly membership. It comes with a handy dandy Bill O'Reilly coffee mug.
He was so excited when he got the confirmation email. It was really cute!

I Don't Want 3-D TV
Here is why I do not want 3-D TV, in no particular order:
plus Hostel directed by Eli Roth, and any movies from the Saw franchise.

Survival of the Fittest at Work
Snail Mucus? Really? And people went to the authorities? I would have loved to hear how that conversation went!
"Hi, is this Miami Police Department? Yes? Well I would like to file a complaint. This guy gave me some snail mucus to drink and it made me sick."
Sometimes I think we have too many safety nets so that survival of the fittest can't work properly.

Never Assume That Men Understand
Love love love this joke:
A woman was in a coma. She had been in it for months.
Nurses were in her room giving her a bed bath. One of them was washing her private area and noticed that there was a slightresponse on the monitor whenever she touched her there... They tried it again and sure enough, there was definite movement.
They went to her husband and explained what happened, telling him, 'As crazy as this sounds, maybe a little oral sexwill do the trick & bring her out of the coma.'
The husband was skeptical, but they assured him that they would close the curtains for privacy. The husband finallyagreed and went into his wife's room.
After a few minutes the woman's monitor flat lined, no pulse, no heart rate. The nurses ran back into the room. 'Whathappened!?' they cried.
The husband said, 'I'm not sure; maybe she choked.'

Pulled my kids out of daycare last night
What a mess! I get a call from the owner last night, and she proceeds to tell me that she had taken out a restraining order against one of the employee's boyfriends and he wasn't allowed to go near the daycare center. WHAT???
Apparently this guy does drugs and beats his girlfriend, the employee. She took out a restraining order against him but he showed up at her home anyway. He was arrested, but his parents bailed him out. So he went back over to her house, and he was arrested again. His parents bailed him out again. Then he started coming to the daycare to see her. He was told not to go there, but he went anyway, so the owner took out a restraining order against him for the daycare center.
Then he took a picture of himself with a shotgun in his mouth and texted it to his girlfriend!!
Yesterday, he showed up at daycare (while the owner was at the dentist, mind you) and his dumbass girlfriend LET HIM IN while my child was there!!!!
Now the owner proceeds to tell me that she fired the girl immediately because the safety of my children is most important. WHAT???
First, how could you NOT tell me that you had a restraining order against someone for coming near the daycare center where I trust you with my children. Second, the first time this guy showed up the girl should have been fired.
I explained to the owner, that this guy probably doesn't have a job. He is able to buy his drugs because of his girlfriend's income. Now he's really going to be pissed because she doesn't have a job either... and he has a shotgun.
I told her there was no way, as a good mother, I could bring my children back. In today's world, crazy people get mad and then go shoot innocent people! I just couldn't risk my childrens' lives.
Sometimes I wish I could be a stay at home mom again.

So you think you're going to use Please Rob Me on MY house?
I'm telling y'all now! I pray for the idiot(s) who use Please Rob Me Now to decide if they're going to rob MY house because I may be out shopping! I may not be home, but guess who is... My former Marine, 6'4" sharp shooter police officer husband who can teach the teachers how to handle a gun. That's who!
Just don't leave your blood on my carpet, please.
