...these are the days of our lives. I have not been able to blog all week. I have had no Internet at home up until last night, and work has been so crazy with the big move, that i have had no time there! The media center where i work is being remodeled for the summer, so i have been displaced to a different building. I finally have sighed a deep breath... I can finally relax! Between packing and moving to my new house and packing and moving to my new job location I have been so tired of well, packing and moving. Today I took a shower, put on makeup and jewelry and wore a skirt and nice shirt... I even shaved my legs! I just wanted to feel "pretty" for a change instead of wearing grubby clothes and being sweaty from packing\unpacking\painting\moving... dirty girl.
Although when i got to my new job location today everyone was said,
You know, you don't have to dress up here.
Well today i just needed to feel good, and not living in the pit of slobdom!
I have also had a busy week at night...
I think Monday i got my car fixed and was able to visit my family... Tuesday Heather came over and helped me unpack my kitchen, share some laughs and a bottle of wine. Wednesday I went to the Sex and the City movie with Shannon and Ellen... LOVED IT!
Last night i got cable and Internet and it was cousin Kyle's birthday (Happy birthday!) and tonight i am having Shannon, Jaime, and Cindy over. Tomorrow night i am going to a bachelorette party for a co-worker! And still this weekend i need to unpack and get out in that garden o' mine. I will post some pictures soon as i finish each room...
Housewarming party is July 19th... so mark it on your calenders... E-vite will be on the way shortly.
Great news! My BFF Rachel gets to come home from the hospital next week after a 1 month bed rest! I am so happy i could do a dance... i think i will. Love you Charlsh!

July 19th it is.
As a childhood/teen (sad) Days of our lives junkie, I appreciate the title.
Maybe talking about poop is a little much even for a mom blog, huh? Oh well, these are the days of my life.

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
