These past few weeks, I've been a meme fiend. I apologize. Of course, it's still me writing, but I also have a life that's been consuming my time and my energy, so my only moments of blogging usually revolve around a meme.
Ugh, how boring. Again, I'm sorry.
So what's new with me? Well, actually, not that much. We are still on track to move this July, from CA to CT. It's going to be a hell of a move, with about eight days of driving and a short stop in Ohio to see Hubby's alma mater. And hopefully, the tornadoes will subside during this trip. We plan on driving for about eight hours each day, which is about all the boys can handle in their car seats at one time. Speaking of the boys...
The boys have been keeping me busy... and crazy. I sat down to write a non-meme post the other day, and Hubby and I noticed it was awfully quiet in their room. I went in to check on them and found LB under the bed (his hiding place when he knows he's done something wrong), JC on top of the bureau, and the window shades (which belong to this house we are renting) shredded. Didn't I once say that strapping them into carseats is like dealing with a bobcat? It seriously looked like a bobcat had shredded those shades. They were in pieces, strewn all over the room, and partially dangling from the window frame. I wish I took a picture.
Maybe my boys are werewolves. Kinda like Michael J Fox in Teen Wolf. Maybe I should sign them up for basketball, too.
Anyway, so that just exemplifies my usual day. Cleaning up one mess after another, while trying to contain little boy craziness.
I took them to Gilroy Gardens, which is a kiddie amusement park around here. They had a blast- LB even won a ball toss game, all by himself! He actually got very lucky, but I didn't tell him that. JC loved the race cars and the fire trucks, and we all went in the hot air balloon ride together, where they both clung to me and screamed with joy at the same time.
Hubby's been busy with overnight trips. Not like the hotel kind, but the camping kind. He went hiking with some of his buddies and they spent a night out in the middle of nowhere. He also camped out with a neighbor of ours so they could go dirtbiking the next day. I was a little worried, because we've had about four bobcat sightings here in the past month, but luckily they didn't encounter any. They did, however, see a large rattlesnake devouring another smaller snake. Hubby oh-so-kindly took a photo of that so he could show me. And by "show me", I mean scare the friggin crap out of me.
As for me, I'm craving meat. Like, must eat the flesh of some kind of animal. This whole vegetarian/vegan thing we had going on was just driving me crazy. I tried to squash my cravings by eating a few sweets, but chocolate just didn't cut it. So last night I told Hubby that I have to give up the lifestyle and that I will be buying some fish and chicken (I'm cutting back on the red meat, but not cutting it out). He seemed okay with it, but he still likes to eat super healthy at home. Mostly because he goes out for lunch once in awhile. I don't get that luxury, so eating healthy all the time is very... well, it makes me super cranky. I need my saturated fat meat!
Today, Hubby will be attempting to fix our washer. It's leaving brown greasy spots on all our clothes... correction, all our clothes except Hubby's (how's that possible??). I'm hoping they will come out, but if they're ruined, then I guess I need to go shopping. Boo hoo. ;)
Anyway, so that's what's up with us. I'm sorry my posts have been all meme-y and lacking substantial writing, but I just can't get my brain in order lately. I promise to snap out of my robot writing and put something fascinating up here... Okay, I'll try.
