There is not much to blog about this side of the computer screen. My stomach has been acting up the past few days and right now I am just trying not to move so it will calm down and digest and not get mad with me.

Nonna and My Wine

I organized the closet and drawers on Saturday. I had a bag full of clothes to give away and a bag of clothes that I do not wear anymore but have chosen to keep for memento purposes that I will store at my parents house and fondly reminisce about 5 years from now. I have realized that clothing and fashion has become disposable to me because I have the opportunity to purchase really fashionable pieces each season, basically for free, so I wear them a lot and then get tired of them quickly. Because I know that I got these things for free I have no problem pushing them to the wayside. While that seems to happen more and more these days, I will have to say that the majority of clothing I have gotten from work I still have and its slowly helping me  figuring out where I fit in this whole world of fashion. Yes, I still haven’t figured where I fit in, but the purchasing of some classic pieces is guiding me, FINALLY, to my spot. I guess it also doesn’t help that I change looks every few years. I think I have finally gotten rid of all my Punk/Skater clothes.

I bought $70 worth of candles at Ikea on Sunday. Hopefully that will last us a few months. Actually it should last us longer now that the days are getting longer. We can not get enough of candle light.

Screw fluorescent lighting.

Nonnos 75th Birthday

I woke up this morning at 2:30 because Chads cell was beeping like crazy trying to tell me it was dying and of course Chad would never get up to turn it off so I had to. I went back to bed and tossed and turned for half an hour as my stomach was paining me. I finally got up and thought that a trip to the bathroom might do me some good. It did except I had one of those moments where you are there and then all of a sudden you have to puke so you have to whip around. I know, not a pretty sight. But that is exactly what happened to me. Most strangly. I barley even puked but I guess going through the motions made my stomach happy. So strange. I then woke up at 5 because Chad got up to go to the bathroom too (such a bizzare night) and I was over heating and sweating and I couldn’t cool down so I had to get up and get something to drink. Such a restless sleep. Chad said he didn’t fall alseep until 4am and we went to bed at 11.

Chad thinks I need rest and relaxation because I’ve been feeling sick but going mental around the house trying to clean up dry wall dust and stucco messes. Its true, I have been going mental. It just seems like all of a sudden there is SO much to do. I’ve given up on working from home. It’s stressing me out and it’s not worth it. Tonight I think I will force myself to hang out on the couch and not try and do a million things at once.

    Man that is SO weird cause I got sick last night too and was feeling that same sort of way. I thought maybe I was coming down with something but perhaps it was those damn ikea hotdogs!! Damn you 50 cent hotdogs! I’ll look for some recipes to see what I want to make and when I figure it out either tonight or tomorrow I’ll let you know what I am bringing!
