This is the title

Caution: This is going to be a very random post. You may experience confusion, dizziness, nausea and a decrease in brain cells. Reader discretion is advised.

Since nothing earth shattering has been happening, I don't have anything really juicy to talk about today. But, I am an addict and need to blog so I will bore you all with random tidbits and thoughts for the week.

Encyclopedia boy has returned. I sometimes have to slap myself when I realize that I am arguing with a 12 year old. I made taco's monday night, and Encyclopedia boy (Tanner) informed me that he did not like the kind of lettuce that I had. He only likes the shredded kind of lettuce. I told him it was the same thing, just cut differently but he was not having it. Shredded lettuce comes from a certain kind of lettuce and it is not the same. I thought you should all know. Don't be fooled by impostor heads of lettuce saying they are the shredded kind. It could happen. Another quick note, almost everything you see on cartoons is a fact, or real.

The paper boy/girl? The one that my babysitter and I were convinced was a boy?. Its a girl. Last friday, we were standing on the step when paper boy/girl came and I notice that it looked like it was wearing a bra. My babysitter said something to paper it, and it answered back in a femme voice. We decided may be it was a girl. Then this past week, there were pictures in the paper of all the carriers with their names. Turns out paper boy/girls name is Misty. Definitely a girl.

The house progress? Nada. Al has been working on getting the garage done, because we will be needing it to work on house stuff when it gets cold. We will need heat, etc. Its a good excuse for him to get his garage done, but I am sure his motives for completing it are not 100% because of the house work. I am guessing more like 15% house, 85% tinkering.

Hopefully, in three more weeks or so, we will be able to pick up the pace on the house. After today's shift, I will officially have two more weeks of nights and then I will be going to days. I am sad and happy. I am sad because I will miss my friend whose shift I will be picking up, and because I really do enjoy working this shift. However, I am so glad I will be going to days because it means I will have more time with my family and Al & I will actually have days off together. Its been a busy and rough year, trying to juggle our schedules. With a new baby, new house, and us hardly seeing each other, it will be a much welcomed changed. I may actually feel like I will have a social life again. And people will not have to worry about having a shotgun shoved in their face when they wake me up during the day. :O)

Ya'll have a super fantastic weekend, ya here!

I love the trademark on your name! I think that's hilarious.

Randomness...that's what my blogs would be if I could find the time to write something. Nothing's going on here.

That will be so great for you guys to be able to spend more time together. It will be even better for Tanner and Colter to have the both of you around together more.

That is so funny about the papergirl. Jason and I were in Jubes a couple of days after you posted this and she walked by us. We both just looked at each other with confusion!!

Have a great weekend!!

I'm going to miss you too. The good thing is that if I'm not busy, I can walk over and see your bright shiny face. However, I really hope to be busy. ;)

Glad the papergirl dilema is solved!
House progress, I hear ya.. Must be the time of year to be at a stand still! This dreary weather doesn't help the ambition factor!!
You will enjoy having day hours once you adjust! Social life???? What is that???
