10 things that I am currently looking at…
You are pretty much the funniest person ever. That’s probably because you understand my humour so you say stuff you know I will laugh at.
I love that you cuddle my side of the bed when I get up for work. Or maybe I should be offended that you cuddle it only after I’ve left the bed.
It is amazing to watch you pretend to be a dinosaur.
I love that I can chase you around the house and always win because you have bad knees. I also love that you look like a dinosaur when you run.
I love that you are scared of midgets and that I can freak you out by simply watching the Little Couple. I also love the amount of rage you get when discussing whether little people should drive or not.
I even love when you fart, but mostly because we are 5 years old and laugh hysterically.
I love that you txt message me the status of your bowel movements.
I love that I can make you laugh hysterically just by laughing hysterically.
I love when you say words in Italian like you are from Naples and are 65 years old.
I love when you do a side part.
I love that there is white AND red in your beard.
I pretty much love everything about you.
Well, except when you talk, at length, about Scotch (that little bitch) and I have no choice but to sit there and listen to you.
“Yes, I sense a bit of peat to this one as well. Well, you know, it is an Islay. Oh is it, well that must be it. Yes, I’ve been on a bit of an Islay kick, but you know it is such a strong Scotch I think I need to mix it up a bit…”
But other then that, I pretty much love everything about you.
The economy has clearly gone down the shitter this year because I have not gained any weight due to the over indulgence of chocolate and cookie eating thanks to our many suppliers who gift us with baskets every year. Why have I not gained any weight you ask? Well because we have only received ONE basket. Either everyone is late in thanking us for business or everyone hates us, and with the lack of Christmas cards I have personally received this year, I’m pretty sure that is the case. Talk about a year of Hate. It goes both ways.
So last night I treated my dear cousin to a home made dinner while she treated me to some Little House on the Prairie. See I told you she would bring it. It felt like dinner took me forever to make, but really it was only an hour. The sausages always take longer then I expect. Elise and I both feel the same way about Italian Sausages in that we hate them, unless that are in a bun. (Insert Bum Sex Joke Here) However, with my magical new Sausage recipe (that converted me from a sausage hater to a sausage lover) I was also able to convert Elise. See, magical.
Now, you see, with this sausage recipe, I needed to partially cook the sausages in the oven in a baking dish with a lid. So once it was done I took it out of the oven, removed the lid, dished out the goods and then went back to replace the lid to keep Chads sausages warm. Only problem was, my brain wasn’t working and I reached for the lid with out an oven mitt on. I picked it up and held it trying to figure out what sensation was coming from the tips of my fingers to my brain. Oh, wait, I know what that sensation is…BURNING. After a minute of holding the frickin burning lid I realized what was going on but couldn’t just drop it because it was glass and I didn’t want to break it so I gently placed it down, allowing for more burning damage to occur to my finger. For the LOVE OF JESUS. My thumb was a little damaged by my right index finger was about to fall off. I have never experienced a burn that bad in my life. I iced it right away and held it there for quite some time (which made eating very awkward). Every time I attempted to not ice my finger I would explode in pain. Like it felt like my hand was ACTUALLY on fire.
Ugh. WHY AM I SO STUPID!? I am going to have no fingers left by the time I die. I mean how many accidents have I had this year alone!?
Anyways, I was stuborn and wouldn’t let anyone help me finish my chores so I washed the dishes, had a shower, cleaned up, AND ironed Chads pants all with one hand on fire.
I am seriously the stupidest person on earth.
So all the Christmas presents are wrapped! Yes! It feels good to get all that done. I’ve decided that since the girls and I are going shopping on Robson tomorrow night I am going to take part of my Christmas bonus and spend it on Chad to get him a few extra things, even though I’ve already gone over budget. Ha. But they will be things he can use every day so it will be worth it. Plus, I love spoiling him. I.E. the 40 lbs of Baked Ziti I surprised him with last night.
Although I am the first to admit that I am overly obsessed with snow, I was partially relieved that the ‘giant snow storm’ that was suppose to hit us this week, didn’t in fact come true. I think last year really put the fear of God in me when it comes to snow. I blame it all on our death trap of a back alley. I do hope it snows while I am off on Christmas break though. I managed to get 5 days off in a row this year (well including the weekend) so I’m looking forward to that. We are going to be so busy this year, I don’t even want to think about it! At least work will be somewhat slow as most of our suppliers take longer vacations then we do.
I have to say that I haven’t really been all that excited about Christmas this year. I was excited to get the Christmas Tree up early, because I love the feeling of the house only being lite by the colourful lights, but other then that I just have not been in the spirit of it all. I don’t know. Maybe it’s just harder to get excited about things now a days. Maybe this year has just done a number to my soul. The only thing I am REALLY looking forward to is the possibility of getting the new lap top I asked for. My old one seriously pisses me off to the point where I just wont use it anymore, which then makes me feel bad because I feel sorry for inanimate objects. Speaking of which, I somehow knocked over my external hardrive last night and busted it and dented the floor. Great. Chad was able to mangle it back into shape, but he scared the shit out of with the possibility that I lost all my data. Thankfully he was wrong.
Elise is coming over for dinner tonight, since our husbands are too busy working and going to school. We have become desperate housewives. Dinner and a movie. Sounds romatic! I’m interested to what movies she brings over. I have a feeling Little House on the Prairie will be included in the bunch.
Tonight starts a week long adventure of Chad and I have many events to attend to, with half of them being separate events. Should be interesting!
I feel so behind on so many internet things. Life has been busy, more busy then I was expecting. Chad and I are under the gun to finish my aunts website and to start my fashion blog. Work for Chad is starting to explode so any sort of normal schedule has gone out the window, and I’ve taken on some more job responsibilities so I seem to be running wild these days as well.
85% of all the Christmas gifts have been bought and wrapped. I will finish Chads tonight and then I have the neice and nephew left, which should be easy.
The Christmas cards have all been sent out and are slowly being recieved.
I just feel very disorganized about everything. Mainly because my plan was to sit down and organize everything last night, but then this website stuff came up last minute and everything got disorganized even more. Even work feels that way today. Hopefully tonight I can get my act together.
I bought more new clothes. I should take pictures of them as well, but you know me, too many other things will get in the way and I will forget. MUST NOT FORGET. I love that as Christmas Gifts our work gives us gift certificates to buy clothes from work. It’s kind of funny but is so handy since I’m too lazy to shop anywhere else.
I need to organize tonight. If only for my mental health.
