Motivation

QQ and I had a lovely time last week in the mountains! The weather was great (even the rain)and the company was even better. I am still awed by the perks of my new life! I was really proud of myself today as I cleaned two messy rooms upstairs. There are piles of old bills that I never filed and all sorts of crap that I keep pledging to get rid of...I finally went through it all today. It feels great! I am eager to get this crap out of my house and get some money in my pocket for it. I am ever hopeful that it will be worth something!

Wonderings About Baby Bumps

So yesterday I got my haircut and Savvy Michigan and I ended up in a hysterical conversation about baby bumps. We were picking out names together for our future children and we started talking about what we want. A boy or a girl. We came to the realization that it might be fun to have a boy because that would be the one time in our lives that there would be a penis in "there" and there would be no sex involved. Unbelievable!
Hubby comes home soon and I am excited about it. I am missing him more and more when he is out of town. I want him home. I don't like the uneasy feeling I get when the nest is empty. When I was younger, I didn't mind so much, but things seem to change as I get older. I can't imagine him at this job much longer and hopefully I won't have to!

I Am a Work in Progress

I realize this more each day as God forces me to confront things. Okay, so it doesn't quite work like that for me, but it is true I am confronted with my limitations and forced to decide what I am willing to work on and what I live with. This post is about something I live with...and I sleep well too.
I was invited to a jewerly party a few weeks ago. It was lovely to spend time with friends. I even planned on buying something.
Until.
Something happened.
That,
changed everything!
The company this home based jewelry party loves Jesus. They are a "Christian based Company."

What the hell does that really mean?

Suddenly, I had no interest in buying anything. Jesus came up several times in the sales pitch and then again in the catalog. I couldn't do it. I sat there for 3 hours and bought nothing. I am sure all parties involved are good people (I am really trying here.), but how do I really know? Are they the bigots who condemn my gay friends because they are gay? Are they pro-life and do they give large quantities of money to The Christian Coalition? These are all reasons I didn't choose to buy anything.
I went home empty handed, but with integrity. I am thankful I am grounded in what my beliefs are. I suppose they are as well.

Take a seat

I can't even believe how my life has changed in the past 6 months. I have been planning to post to this blog for oh...like...4 months now, but I didn't feel like I had much to say. Besides I have been preoccupied with my other blog. I planned on making this entry all about my love for my new job, but that suddenly seems not at all interesting to write about.
Baby Talk. Outloud. You see I have been thinking about having babies for a long time. I just didn't tell anyone. It is much easier to say, "No I really don't want to have them. I like being a D.I.N.K." then to explain that I didn't really know what or when I wanted them. So I thought about kids a lot, but rarely outloud...until recently. I am ready. I am ready for Hubby to graduate. Get a job. and start a family. I no longer puke at the thought of being prego. I actually like browsing in the baby section on my way to kitty litter at Target and I have been contemplating what colors to paint the extra room when the time comes.
Now that I am planning, creating a list of baby names, and planning some more I am finally motivated to save like a crazy woman. I figure I will lose much of my disposable income when we take on parenthood, so I better plan for it now. That should keep me busy for another year.

My nipples are hard!

Perky Nips! Perky Nips! Yes my husband is touching me, but anyway...I finally feel like I have something great to write about and it isn't sex! I am moving up in the world. Say hello to a much more important job title. I can't wait.:)

I am thinking about getting a new haircut. I would love to grow it about 5 inches longer and style it all sorts of sexy! However, I don't really like the way it looks now and although I have a cute short cut in mind...I'm nervous. Do I really want to cut it all off? I am thinking about a new look anyway to go with my much more interesting job title.

I'm ready for my close-up!

I think I was on the news tonight. I recorded so I can watch it (I just got home). Monday I went to a meeting that is of particular interest to the public and I was interviewed by a reporter. I am hopeful I sound smart, not stupid. I got nervous and I couldn't help it! We can hope for the best.
I am so excited about The Burn. We bought our tickets to Burning Man last week. It is going to be our first time and we are going with a a dear friend. Hubby sees this as a chance to get in shape. All I can think about is all the penises I am going to see. OMG, I can't wait. I'm considering bring body paint and going nude...at least once. I will need to make sure I am nicely groomed for that week. Let the fun begin. :)

Blog For Choice 2007

Today is Blog For Choice Day! What an exciting day! Last time I blogged for choice it was very different then today. I am changed this year. I have had an experience that has changed everything, but not in the way I thought it would. Funny how that goes. I used to think about nest building all the time, but now I talk about it. I am sorry that wasn't ready last summer. My body was. Now I wonder have I hindered my chances? How have I changed them? I have read the statistics and they aren't totally in my favor. All things to consider in the next few years, as I continue my nest building.

Fuck the the government that thinks they will ever come between Hubby and I. It was our decision and it was the right one for us! I blog for choice today because I have to. This is a right that needs to exist for women everywhere.
