Not too much going on with me.  Last night fell asleep at 6:30 woke up around 8:30 then went to bed.  I was wiped.

Ben has a birthday party to go to this weekend so that should be fun for him.

I can't believe tomorrow is May.  May is going to be a GREAT month.  It's mother's day, my birthday, IRS money is coming...WOO HOO!

I am looking forward to going to Home Depot and picking out the flowers for my garden and the hanging baskets for out front.  I am looking forward to getting the top on my car fixed.  I am looking forward to peeing on a stick every day next week to see if I am ovulating.  I am looking forward to going out to dinner for my birthday and hopefully getting THIS. 

We got a wonderful letter from the prinicpal about Maddy being such a good girl at school.  She actually had to go down to the office to pick it up.  I am so proud of her.

We have to go to the doctor today and go pick up Maddy's prescription, then off to the CVS we go.  Ben opened his piggy bank and wants a baby doll.  He is so funny.  The kids don't even know what Hubz and I are planning in that department, but the other day Ben says to me, "Is there a baby in your belly?"  and I told him no, and he said he likes little brothers.  Tee hee.  I hope I can tell him yes to that question soon.

Not Cool

Maddy was supposed to have a play date at 12pm yesterday.  Well I guess I shouldn't call it a play date because the girls are 10, but still, that is what it is.

It was only planned for a few days, but Maddy was so excited.  We cleaned the whole house in preparation for her arrival.  We were ready.

12 rolls around, nothing.  12:15, nothing.  1:00 nothing.  Tried to call her, no answer.  2:00 nothing.  Called her again and apparently she had to go to her aunt's party or something.  She was really upset she couldn't come over.

WTF?  They could have called us and told us they weren't coming.  Not just leave us hanging.  Poor Maddy was so upset she cried and cried and cried.  What the hell is wrong with her mother?  I just don't get it.

Not cool.

Not Pregnant

Well I'm not pregnant this month.  Aunt Flo is here with a vengeance.  This sucks.

I guess it's going to take a while this time too.

Am I going to be the type of person that has to take ovulation predictors etc?  I hope not.  I just want to do this the fun and easy way.  But I guess with my age, it may take a little more work.

I guess it's better off.  I just stopped taking my meds, it takes a while to get out of your system.  Just started the prenatal vitamins, just to get that ever so needed folic acid.  Sigh.

Hopefully next month.

Spotting

Dammit, I am spotting a bit a few days earlier than I thought my period was due. 

This sucks.

I really thought he got me this time :(

Grocery Shopping

I think one chore that I usually hate as much as laundry is the grocery shopping.  The prices are sky high anymore and that kind of takes the fun out of it. 

I usually have a kid in tow when I go.  Why?  Because I am worried that I talk to myself when I am there.  Looking at things.  Saying wow that price is high, or oooh it's on sale.  I would rather it look like I am saying that to my child.  Tee hee.

I used to go by myself, until one time someone looked at me a little strange, and it made me wonder if I was talking to myself out loud.  I probably was, because I know in my head, whenever I am there, the comments just go on and on and on.

I enjoyed going tonight though.  Ben came with me and he was an angel, and responded to most of my comments.  He is cute.

Making A Baby

With M and B it took 6 months to get pregnant with each of them.  Boy was that hard work.  I sure hope it doesn't take that long this time.

They say when you are older it may take longer or could be quicker.  We shall see.

I am excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Weekend

This weekend I am going over to my Mom's for a sleepover.  We are going to make dinner and watch a movie.  I can't wait.

I will miss my family to death, but I will be happy to just get away over night.

What is the news?

We are trying to expand our family!!!!!

Spring

I think it is finally spring around here.  Finally. 

It really felt like a long long winter.  I am happy that now it is time for capri pants once again!  I love my capri pants, even though I only have two pairs!

Spring will be a hard time to quit smoking, because since it is so beautiful out, it makes me want to take more breaks and go outside.  I don't have a window to look out, so going outside is the only way to get some sun.

Oh this post sucks.  I have nothing to write about.  There is some exciting talk in my family, and I really want to share it with you. 

Do you want to know what it is?

What's Cooking (Cliff Notes Version)

1) Maddy's teacher had to undergo heart surgery so he wont' be back until next year.  She was so upset.  But she seems to like her new teacher so I am happy about that.  It's just hard, because she just switched schools this year and had to get used to all of the newness.  I'm sure she will adjust fine.

2) Ben is fine.  He had to go to CVS with Hubz last night to get some Silly Putty.  Hubz told him to go to his piggy bank and get the money.  He ends up bringing the whole HEAVY thing downstairs for Hubz to open.  Too cute.

3) Smoking.  I am doing much better than I used to do.  It's so hard though.  No I have just cut down, I haven't quit yet.  I don't know how many I am having a day though.  Maybe I should keep count.

4) Hubz is great.  His job is going great and he is just great.  He hooked up our old laptop (the screen died) to the TV in the family room.  So now Maddy can go on Toontown on the TV.  It's pretty neat.  He has it all set up and networked to our regular computer so we can listen to MP3's or go online or whatever.  Coolness.

5) Comments.  I must admit that I am the worst commenter in the blogosphere.  But I would love to have some comments from all of you lurkers.  Hey what about you Media, PA?  How about you Philly, who searches for me on the internet?  How about you Clifton Heights, PA?  I know you guys read me every day, sometimes visit a few times a day.  I would just love a comment from you.  It would make my day.

Meds

I am off my meds.  It has been a week now.  I feel better than ever.

Why?  Because I wanted to.

I don't feel foggy anymore.  I feel alive.  I feel like the old me. 

I don't feel sick when I wake up in the morning.  I see clearly.  I am good.
