TGIF
I'm so over today! I sometimes look at our blog name and think, maybe I should change it- I'd like to change it to little blond girl factory- but that's a tad creepy. lol
Until Julia pees yet again on the floor (IN THE VENT) and I realize how that name still holds true in my life! I recently sent someone the link to my blog and thought, geez all they're going to think I talk about is my children's bodily functions and the sad thing is sometimes it seems like that's all I'm about. What goes in and what comes out! It's what I live for. Lol
I'm supposed to go running with a friend tonight, a last ditch effort to get ready for bootcamp, but I would love to trade those plans in for a pitcher of margaritas and chips and salsa to my hearts content.
Andy and I have been having discussions recently about how I'm struggling a bit with anger over him getting to go out of the house during the day and I feel a bit stuck at home lately, I long for adult conversation and interaction. So he IMs me today and talks about how they are listening to 80s music in his office and that its beer friday. Isn't he SO helpful?! lol I don't get to have beer friday at my "office", its frowned upon in my line of work.
I haven't had any play dates this week and I feel the affects, I need to get out there with other moms and have some community. I'm determined to make next week a better week.
And Julia will be wearing pullups the whole week, I'm going to call it my accident vacation! lol
Have a great holiday weekend everyone!

I'm already feeling a lot of that & I've only been into this a year - you've been at it way longer than I have. The isolation, the boredom, the sameness of it all. Some days I WANT to go back to work, despite knowing I simply could not handle it emotionally to leave her every day at this point. I'd be the most unproductive worker ever (hey - wasn't I that anyway?) sitting at my desk wishing I was holding my baby all day.
Anyway - I also totally relate to the margaritas desire & even looked up some recipes online last week. I have nagged my husband to bring home some tequila, because, you know, going to a liquor store with a one year old is not very attractive. Alas, my husband is the king at resisting nagging. Perhaps I have over used that technique.
Watch me ramble on your blog, because I am so FREAKING BORED!

hey girl! I can so relate!!! I have even been known to make plans with a friend to meet at Walmart for grocery shopping because we were both so needy for adult interaction. It took us twice as long to get all the things we both needed and the kids were pretty unruly but we did get to have a little grown-up conversation! As for the margaritas and beer... going on over 9 months with neither, I can't wait to indulge in one or the other after this baby is born. Hey, beer helps milk production, right?!

Sorry it was such a long week. Hopefully bootcamp will be a good stress release for you! :) Christy and I were talking about going to the Creative Discovery Museum with you sometime, so let us know if/when you want to go!

Why is it frowned upon? I mean, I am not a fan of drinking alone, but drinks Friday at a playground with other moms sounds fun! Come to Carrboro, and I will show you how it is done. But I completely know what you mean about the daytime not getting away. I don't think people who work outside of the home can really get it, since they don't see it as the break that it is. Hang in there - it was great to talk last week - sorry Ezra doesn't let me complete sentences on the phone!
