Bits And Pieces
I keep trying to update because I have things to say, but all I really have are short little bursts of information that you may or may not find amusing or interesting, so after three days of starting posts and deleting them, well, you’re just going to have to put up with this massive run-on sentence and whatever comes next.
I am dizzy. I have no idea why. I’m going along all fine and then- WHAM- sit down or fall over. I just started taking Claritan for these amazing allergies I’ve developed recently, so I am wondering if I should blame that or if it’s just one of those special Lou things that just happens. At any rate, I’m sitting a lot.
Jonas informed me the other day that we needed another baby. His reasoning? “Ours is broken!” And he’s right. Ours broke and turned into a toddler, who is very fun, but definitely not a baby, which she proved the other day by climbing onto the table and falling off. She scraped her nose doing it, and me, being the stupid mom that I am, tried to wipe the “dirt” off her nose about five times before realizing that I was looking at rug burn. On her nose. Ow.
Jonas isn’t the only one who is getting a little baby hungry around here. It’s been hitting me rather hard the past few weeks (Yes! Put Lou on anti-depressants and suddenly she thinks she can leap tall buildings in a single bound and manage three children. These are antidepressants, not narcotics, right?) When I was expecting Maggie, I swore to myself that next time I got baby hungry, I would get a dog. I spent two hours online last night looking at dogs and you know what? I don’t want a dog.
You know how I said I was singing again? I had no idea how much I sing until I stopped for awhile. I now find myself driving along making up Fleetwood Mac/ Joan Baez/ Tom Petty/ Fiddler on the Roof medleys. Seriously, I flow from one tune into the next, no rhyme or reason. It’s incredibly annoying.
I am doing a major de-cluttering around the house and now have a huge stack of stuff to sell. Among these things are several scrapbooking items, including three Quickutz fonts. If anyone wants them for cheap, just drop me a line. I also have bucketloads of stamps, papers, cardstock, embellishments, and a Canon Rebel that need new homes. I am astounded at the sheer amount of stuff we have. I clean stuff out at least once a year and at every move- and every year there’s more. It’s insane.
Oh! The cloth diapering! I must update! It is still going well, but I have decided that I really don’t like the Bumkins covers or All In Ones. They spring more leaks than all my other diapers combined. I’m going to buy more from Tallulah Baby and phase those out.
Chris’ office just called. He might be leaving for Hawaii tonight. Hopefully he gets home soon so I can tell him. I’d better see if I can track him down.
