*I'm just terribly behind, in so many things.
*Two rooms of my house are a complete and utter wreck. They're being overhauled. The guest bedroom will become N.Lo's room. The laundry room will be an organizational dream, a storage haven. Eventually. Until then, the doors are closed, and you are instructed not to look behind them.
*My dog, Bender, has been walking on 3 legs for 3 days now. There's nothing in her paw. She's been taking glucosamine for her hips. She doesn't appear to be in any pain, except for the fact that she's putting no weight whatsoever on that back leg. I feel terrible about it.
*According to the email mendacious sent me about tax refunds, we'll be getting ours by Friday. We plan to buy a sleeper sofa for our den, so we can continue to accomodate guests, and pay the bills with the rest. So you know, thank heaven for that. Or W. I guess.
*I really hope we can still go to NYC sometime this year, though. Dare I dream.
*K.Lo didn't take a nap yesterday... it's a long story. So she went to bed early, around 7:15, and slept super-late (for her), until 8:15. We may be onto something here.
*Our kitchen has a rad new shelf/cabinet, made by my dad. I painted it this weekend, and it's so fantastic. Our kitchen is almost "done." Is anything in a house ever really done?
*I have so many seeds I wanted to plant this year, for landscaping and the porch and whatnot, but I feel like I'm missing the boat. Whatevs?
*K.Lo is potty training. She's doing so much better with it than a few weeks ago, making progress by leaps and bounds, and I'm so proud of her. But, I really kind of hate potty training. It's messy and annoying and they're so damn temperamental about it. I know it won't last forever, and I should "enjoy" this "special wonderful phase" in my child's life, but um, gag. Can't wait till we've moved on.
*I have like a million emails to write and a maybe half a million blogs to post? Seriously I really need a secretary.
*I really want to delete my myspace page because even though I've connected with some old friends on there, I find the platform loud and annoying, and it makes my skin crawl. Help me kick the habit, people.
*We all need to eat more fruits and vegetables around here. Why's it got to be so hard?

though i know you mean to be gracious to those that visit you- i hope you can find a cheap sofa, that or an inflatable mattress will do for now- will it not? so that more bills and more takeout might be purchased.
how do i delete myself from myspace. bravely i haven't looked at it for a month or more. will neglect merit as much? probably not. sigh
no your house is never "done". my folks have been in theirs for over 15 years and there is a TON that needs to be done (or thati would do.)
potty training is NOT a special time in life and if someone really enjoys it, they are more than welcome to come and train my kid.
elijah is in the process of not taking a nap today and i swear this may be what actually sends me into labor...punk.
i'm sorry your pup's leg is hurt (or not...)i hope it gets better.
refund for us means yard work for jerry, which really means yard work for me after the baby comes out... sigh... which on the bright side, may be never...
i'm glad there is someone else out there that can't stand myspace. i only go on if someone leaves me a message. it's very irritating and i don't like it...
potty training seriously is for the birds. but surely you won't be required to do yardwork while caring for a newborn?
you know, m, you may have a point about the inflatable mattress, which i DO already own, so... and it would save me from the inevitable "keep the dogs off the new couch" problem. it's interesting how far i will go sometimes to give myself another problem to deal with.
i feel you on the myspace thing. i've been pondering deletion for some time. i only check it every couple of weeks now to get info on some bands or read a blog. and everyone is telling me to get a facebook instead, but it feels like the same kind of evil... and then, gasp, i'll be so disconnected and won't that be horrible and how will anyone maintain a fake, single-sentence-every-month, cyber-relationship with me? how, pen, how?!
I got on myspace yesterday for the first time in ages. It is good for cyberstalking people I used to know when I'm bored at work, although I've gotten a lot of facebook invites.
My parents have been in their house since before I was born and are now in the process of remodeling some of the original remodel they did when I was in junior high. Well, maybe more redecorating than more remodeling, but still...
