We are waiting for our food assistance to kick in (dec. 4th) so we are down to some interesting things in the pantry. Tonight we had polish sausage dogs with cheesy baked potatoes and salad and ginger ale. (not a good combination. I repeat... not a good combination. Of course I figure this out in hindsight :)
I have discovered I have a down-turned mouth... none too happy about that but not sure how to fix it, so I suppose I'm not going to care. Gotta wait for boobs until after the last kid, so I guess I'll throw it in the "I'll care about it later" pile. Stoked for a C-cup.
I have my 2 finals on Sunday...Im so very excited to be DONE with my stupid "How to use capitalization" class. Seriously, higher education my rear patoukah.
Poor Peepers is teething somethin awful, 4 at once. The little boo doesnt know what to do with himself and really wont let me put him down. Baths seem to help, maybe it just takes his mind off it. He is a big fan of bubble baths... pretty darn cute.
So tomorrow is Black Friday... yaaay for people with money. We're going... this computer I'm on has developed an attitude and shuts off and restarts and fixes systems and blue screens whenever it damn well pleases. We had it checked out and its cheaper to just buy something new. We found a little notebook computer at Best Buy for $150... SOLD!! Why things like these happen when no solid income is coming in, I dont know, but it will be nice to be able to finish my homework without restarting 12 times. Now I just need a spare $1200 for another bill that needs to be taken care of. Unfortunately you cant win the lottery if you dont play. Boo.
We're spending T day at our relief society president's house, who happens to be a good friend of mine also. I am happy to have been invited... tradition is that we go out to Shari's... when we first moved up here it was Thanksgiving day and nothing other than Shari's was open...thus starting the tradition of giving thanks for diner food and endless fries. This year that was the plan because we had nothing else to stop us, but now that Kiewit is gone, we were just going to probably roast grilled cheese sandwiches, provided my homemade bread actually rose more than 2 millimeters. But I dont have to worry about it and it is nice.
I've decided to start using that dang treadmill that has been staring me down for the past four months...been feeling flabby and probably have been eating more than I should... take example A at the top of this post. Really regretting that choice... was real good at the time..hehe... And then to make things more pukalicious...Zac topped it off with a huge cup of homemade cocoa and a big bowl of ice cream. But of course it doesnt bother Mr. I-have-the-metabolism-of-a-15-year-old. And I gained back fat watching him eat it. I am now preparing for a vicarious sugar coma.
We have a loft in our house that has a 3/4 wall and there is a queen size bed in it. The loft looks over the living room and the fire place and such, so needless to say it gets very warm. Our bedroom, is lovely with wonderful huge windows and our comfy bed and so far has been averaging a balmy 22 degrees. Fahrenheit. Soooo... in the interest of not freezing to death, we moved upstairs. To the hard-ass bed that was about 90 freakin degrees. Celsius. I had the worst nights sleep. My body hurt and I didnt actually get to bed until 3am. I much rather would have been buried under my 15 blankets with my ear flap hat because I sleep soooo much better in my own bed. Oh well. Were trying it again tonight. Zac thinks I just have to get used to it. Puh-leze... give me a cement slab any day...
Oh I think I forgot to mention that the reason I got laid off was because Kiewit was restructuring and my position went **POOF**. But I am happy. I've got clear skin again :)
Okie doke - Ima gonna facebook and then go get some tea and hunker down for the night in the Sahara..
