A Few Things

First of all, I caved. I watched the Superbowl. I never watched this before I met my husband. But, every year -- we end up going to a party and having a fun time. So it works out well. I whipped up a super-American-football-ish dip in record time. For I found out about the party 10 minutes before leaving the house!

He forgot to mention it to me. It happens :) Good thing I'm flexible

I know everyone hated the half-time show. But I think this was much better than Bruce Springsteen & The Who the previous years. Yes, I like The Who...but not for Superbowl. I like "The Who" on my i-pod. I'd rather see Janet Jackson's boob than watch The Who (who are clearly past their prime....). I will also be honest & say I like the Black Eyed Peas. A lot. Especially Fergie. If i look like her at 36, I will be a happy woman.

I started a boxing class today - it went surprisingly well. I miss boxing - and hope to attend this more. It brings out the ALMOST non-existent tough girl in me. That hour goes super fast. 

I. Am. So. Ready. For. A. New. Week. Yesterday, I was hanging my head low saying "Can I just have a do-over of last week?" -- when I decided to just kick last week out the door and start over! New Week! New days! Good times!

I hope EVERYONE has a fantastic week!

PS -- I would like to make a big, loving, happy shout-out to my sister Lisa! HAPPY BIRTHDAY my dear sister! Hope your day was wonderful. You deserve it!

Thanks for the bday shout out! I did have a great day! It was nice to sleep in a bit and have a quiet day at home.

I actually enjoyed the 1/2 time show as well, except not the parts w/ Fergie - I actually can not stand her! But any part where she wasn't singing, I enjoyed. :)

And I don't think i know a single song by the Who!

The 1/2 time show was entertaining, I thought. The one part that did sort of annoy me is when Fergie was singing with Slash..and I just didn't think she sounded good and I couldn't understand why she was rubbing herself all over him. Other than that, not bad..

Hope you have a great week!

I watched the half-time show with your Dad and we both kind of looked at each other and sighed! It's not our kind of music but it was better than some I've seen! I remember when Michael Jackson used to perform and spent more time rubbing his private parts than singing! What has happened to our world! I thought they should do some super patriotic performance, but I'm from the old school. Music should sound like "music" if you ask me!

Currently - May edition

   I haven't blogged much - but the last time I did one of these, Maddy was 9 months old. It's really fun looking back on the things that were "stressors" to me at that time. Prior to that - my currently post was a pregnancy edition.  So here goes May 2022. Maddy is almost a 15-month old and summer has set ablaze here in Tucson.   Reading :  I really wish I had a better answer for this one, but I have not been the best about reading lately. The only book I'm reading is "How to talk to your kids so they'll listen and listen so they'll talk". It is really good. Most of the book is geared more to school-aged kids, in my opinion. But it highlights some great communication skills with children to help them trust you as a parent to be open and honest. Eating: All the smoothies. It has been getting really hot here - and every day when we get home from our stroller run I make a smoothie for Maddy with whole milk, Fage, and fruit - and then a smoothie for...

ABC

We are home from a wonderful, extended-weekend-getaway to Omaha. It was filled with family, relaxations, and greatness. I will do a more detailed recap on it soon! In the meantime, I'm doing this ABC bit that I stole from my cousin 's blog! Also, no -- I did not get switched to days. Trust me, I would've told the entire world and screamed it from roof-tops if I did. A. Age: 22, but that will change on Sunday. B. Bed size: King C. Chore you dislike: Cleaning the shower - especially dealing with hard-water stains. Lime away=ouch D. Dogs: Really really really really really dislike. Really dislike. Sorry. I could do a post in itself about my dislike for canines. E. Essential start to your day: Bowl of oatmeal/or cereal with bananas. Or fruit F. Favorite color: Greeen G. Gold or silver: Definitely silver. H. Height: 5'4'' - Sometimes I lie & say 5'5''. Some people lie about their weight, age, haircolor...I lie about my height. I...

Pandemic Pregnancy

Dearest Sebastian,  This will be a more sobering letter, but I don't think I can write about my pregnancy without addressing the big elephant in the room.  I write this letter to you in grave hopes that by the time you're old enough to read these letters, COVID-19 is something you read about in your history books. However, by the time you're taking history classes, I am sure you won't have textbooks. I'm sure some robot will tell you about it.  I hope that you go to a busy, bustling school with activities, contact sports, and choir. (all things that currently don't exist). I hope you had a childhood where you could play tag. (currently banned). I hope you have school pictures where you are making faces at the camera that is not hidden behind a mask. But given the current state, your mama is not so sure what kind of world she is bringing you into. At this point, all I can tell you is that I promise your Dad and I will travel with you and make life as special as w...
