Random Thoughts

~The movie "1408" was weird.

~I heart Craigslist! I have found so many great deals on there, mostly toys, but hey, when you're paying half of the brand new price for something that looks brand new, it's a great deal.

~I hate daylight savings time. I guess we're technically now getting out of daylight savings time(?) but I still hate having to change the clocks twice a year. It's a pain having to adjust to the new times, especially getting my child adjusted.

~I am so excited it's November! I love the holidays and I can't wait to put up my Christmas tree and all of the decorations.

~I've already started listening to Christmas CD's in the car.

~I love it when my house is clean. Not necessarily spotless, but when everything is picked up and there isn't any noticeable dirt, it's a nice feeling.

~I hate to dust.

~Garrett's bedroom window has a big bush in front of it and it scares me sometimes at night when I go in there and there's enough light outside to where that bush casts a big shadow on his window. I need to buy some long curtains for his room. I wonder if it scares him.

~I got out the pottychair yesterday. I'm nervous about beginning potty-training with Garrett. I think I'll just take it slow and just start out by introducing the chair to him and see where that leads.

~I am addicted to reading. I have read 10 books in the last 7 days (around 200 pages each). It's not a good thing because then my housework and my playtime with Garrett suffers, but if I'm in the middle of a good book, it's so hard to put it down. I think I need to hide the library card from myself for a while.

~I heart my iPod, but I wouldn't mind one of the fancier ones with the screen and more space.

~I can't wait for the new season of Lost to start! I will be glued to the TV every week when that show comes on. Don't call me during that time!

~I wish I could hire a stylist to come over every morning and fix my hair. I feel like it always looks unkempt, even if I actually attempt to do something with it.

~I'm getting 2 cavities filled on Tuesday. That should be fun.

~I just ordered some of my Christmas gifts online. I love doing my Christmas shopping online, it's so easy!

~I love to buy gifts for my family. It's so fun to pick out things that I think that particular person will like. Keith's family is hard to buy for though. Especially his mom and sister. I always dread picking their names during the annual name draw for the Christmas exchange. Luckily this year I drew Keith and he drew his mom. I'll make him figure out what to get her.

~I am really ready to start working out and get into shape and lose some weight. I want a treadmill in order to do this. I'm dropping major hints in order to get it for my birthday next month. It doesn't have to be a fancy one, as long as I can walk on it, it will be fine.

~I hope we get snow for atleast one day in our area this winter.

~I think it's funny when Garrett calls me and Keith by our first names. I probably won't when he's doing it a couple of years from now.

~I'm so glad that my son has some manners. Thank you, welcome, sorry, bless you (he doesn't have please quite down just yet). He even tells himself "Bless You" if he sneezes. I hope that will continue on for the rest of his life.

~I'm worried about one of my grandparents dying. Currently all 4 are still alive and healthy, but I know that isn't going to last forever. It will be very sad to lose someone whom I have been close to for the past almost 30 years.

~I love getting pedicures! I used to think painting your toes was stupid, but I didn't know what I was missing. When you have it professionally done, it's super!

~I think golf is the most stupid sport ever.

~Whoever came up with the idea for Netflix rocks! (I'm actually a Blockbuster On-line person, but I know Netflix originated the idea.)
