Musings & Monday

Good morning, all!! Quick side note: I am exhausted. I washed my bedding this weekend and don't you just love that fresh clean sheets feeling? Yeah, me too. I want to crawl back in bed right now.....Anyways, onto more pressing things I suppose... Allow me to muse away....

1. Husband at baseball game = several episodes of Burn Notice (which, for those of you that have been suffering and haven't seen the show--USA on Thursday nights, by the way...think of it as an American semi-version of James Bond. Except the main character is a spy that got fired, and has no money and therefor no cool guns, cars, etc. But, it's hilarious and probably one of my favorite shows. And, if you have seen it and don't like it, I'm sorry, I love it), all the sundried tomato and sausage penne I wanted (which, actually, turned out not to be that much) and snuggle time with the doggies. Although, I must admit, most of their time was spent sitting in front of the door wondering where on earth dadpup was (mompup is the disciplinarian in the house).

2. Going to the gym on Saturday made me feel like a badass. It was relatively empty, which was fantastic.

3. I'm debating kickboxing tonight or just going to the gym--the gym thing saves time as I got right after work whereas kickboxing is all the way across town and doesn't start until 6:30, which means it's 8 by the time I get home.... Thoughts?

4. It's August. I'm as pale as I was in March. This is a real problem.

5. Registration started for Italian classes last week, I need to register ASAP, but, I'm suddenly scared. It's school. It's class class. It's work. Ughhh! I just finished that... But! On the upside, it's "informal" classes, so, I'm assuming that I actually can't fail--because, really, letter grades do a number on my self esteem. Plus, it's one more night a week that I won't be home.

6. One more night a week? You ask..... Well, yes, that's right because holy guacamole I got called to Young Womens. (and am kinda sorta freaking the heck out) Right. Help!! Don't get me wrong, I'm really looking forward to it and really excited--and it doesn't hurt that the husband is in YM, but, still. Eh, eh, ugh, help! Scared out of my teeny tiny little mind. Also, did I mention that I'm a total commitment phobe? Yeah, as if you didn't already know that. Deep breathes, I can do this. And somehow manage to work full time, learn Italian, go to the gym, take care of the home front and.... How do all you supermom's do it??? Please, share, please.

7. My sis in law says she may be coming out here in the next few months. Wahoo!! Which also means, whoops, I better get her room decorated ASAP.

8. HRH Princess Hanna Puffy Cheeks has suddenly forgotten that doggies go potty outside. Either that or she has started thinking that the awful "modern shag" carpet we have in the study is actually grass. Or, Butch is telling her to potty in hopes of getting her in trouble and getting her into the crate when we're gone. Ha, I'm onto you HRH Big Boxer Boy Butch.

9. It's like a bagillion degrees outside and it sucks.

10. I got my pedi. But, I schmootzed the color. Of course I did. Me and my big ol dumb feet.

11. Mama Mia! was sold out again this weekend! Don't these people understand that I need my movie? Seriously. Seriously. Sold out. Again.

12. Fabulous Friday night Target finds include: pink and green printed notecards 8 for $1. Golden shimmer wannabe pashmina on sale for $11.29. Yesss!

13. It's Monday. And I haven't had my Diet Coke yet (trying to whiten the teeth y'all--yellow ain't a pretty color). Please, send well wishes. It could get dicey around here!

That's all for now, folks!
(um, did I just quote Loony Tunes??)
