Hello, nearly empty Daily O's!! Where is everyone at today? I am always glad to see my girls Chris, Sally and Trudy though. Today was good but by the end of the day I was quite cranky. I think just because I am STARVING!! Stupid dieting...always leaves me wanting to eat EVERYTHING!!! But I HAVE to fit into a much smaller size if I am going to be my sister's Matron of Honor. No way am I buying a dress at the size I am. Eeeeek!! So, to be successful I have to be extremely regimented or I will never succeed. If there is any wiggle room that little bit of wiggle room turns into a giant amount of cheating and I fall on my face having wasted days of not eating what I want. Thank goodness for jello and pickles though.
So, enough about my diet woes...slightly whiney, sorry. Today me and Derek had the worst misunderstanding. He called me to say he was going to come by the house so we could carpool to a cookout for his work(really he just wanted to drink beer but doesn't drink when motorcycling). I had just put the kids in the car and Addie was being especially difficult so I didn't want to unload them so I was trying to come up a reason to go to the store or something. he took it as "No, don't come home" but that was never specifically conveyed. So, I took the kids to the store then came back to the house and we sat in the driveway waiting for him to never show. Total bad communication apparently. But it all worked out in the end. It ended up working better because I left before he was ready. Good thing he had his bike.
I have my sister's Bridal Shower invites all ready to mail out tomorrow. I found cute stamps and everything. I'm glad to finally have that done. It had my mom all stressed out. Things are finally starting to come together for the wedding. My sister is currently trying to come up with how the ceremony will go. One of her best friends is going to marry her. That should be fun. She is trying to figure out how to incorporate some Spanish into the wedding without it being just translated. I think she is going to say her vows in Spanish. He's nervous about saying his vows apparently (in English) so I suggested that she say hers in Spanish. I think it would be kinda cool. Plus she'll be as self conscious about it as he will and that could help him feel more comfortable about it. We'll see.
Okay, well...I am going to give some love real quick and go.
Chris - Thanks for the explanation about Lyme docs. What kind of docs do the Lyme docs tend to be? I was wondering about that. I hope you got to spend some time in the dirt today...and yes. I love duct tape. We have a lot of it around here and threaten to use it OFTEN!!!
Sally - I have missed you!! I hope you are able to find balance in all the craziness. Hugs!!
Trudy - I hope you enjoyed the sunshine today. I've heard the PNW has been cold and rainy so I would assume it is similar up there. I just hope it warms up by July. Did you get some scrapping done?
