weekend review

My weekend was alright. We never made it to the beach, which was a bummer because it got really hot here. But well, the other half says he's committed to buying a house this time, so we have to start saving. Of course, he has to buy a house before we get married (because my credit is poor and he doesn't want me on the loan). And once we do get a house (which he says will be the beginning of next year), we'll be broke...so the wedding will have to wait even more. I don't see the point in even planning on one anymore. He will always have an excuse to postpone it.

We did get some new clothes for the kids though, which was awesome because they both need them. And we got Rea a bear walker. She doesn't really try to move in it, but she loves playing with the toy attachments :) We had the same bear walker for Gav when he was a baby, so its kinda sweet that she enjoys it as much as he did. Of course, we bought his when he was a little bit older, so he liked to push around in it. I'm sure Rea will get there soon.

I am super excited for today though. I get to register for Little Feet Repeats (a consignment sale of baby/childrens/maternity clothes, toys, etc that happens twice a year here) and its the start of Journaling for a Cause (run by Janel of Run With Scissors). Once I get to done with the first journal prompt I'll be sure to post it here. I also received (500) Days of Summer via Netflix on Saturday, and I'm hoping to watch it later.

Here's to a super Monday and super week!

busy bee

I've been busy, its been nice. Although, my definition of busy probably doesn't fit most people's.

Tuesday night the other half and I saw Inception. Great movie! Definitely had the what-the-f ending I'd heard so much about. And Joseph Gordon-Levitt is such a hottie! I've thought so ever since 10 Things I Hate About You.

Wednesday Rea had a doctor's appointment. She got a ton of shots which she was not happy about. We did find out that her head situation is good for now though, which is super (her soft spot was closing too fast and they were worried about her skull bones overlapping). I also found some great things for both of the kids' birthday parties. See, it is a good thing that I started planning early :) When I scrounge up some more money I hope to go back (to Target! my fave store) and get some more.

Thursday......I can't remember what I did. Oh yes, the fighting with debt collectors/Citibank. That took up most of my day and was just emotionally draining.

Today? Well, we were supposed to go to the beach, but the other half decided to try and get a loan to buy a house instead. Hes been gone since like 0900, so I guess even leaving late won't be much of an option (too many people try to take off after work on Fridays...and they all drive like douches lol). Unless he came home like right now, but somehow I doubt he will.

Happy weekend everyone!

so....

The other half already changed his mind. No wedding, not yet. Its disappointing, but I knew that would happen. I was never the type of girl to start planning my wedding at like, age six, like so many girls do. But I did expect that I would someday (theoretically before having children, but that didn't happen). We've had so many false starts that I do now pretty much have my wedding planned. Maybe one day someone will ask me to plan their wedding (a child of mine perhaps?) and I'll finally get to see what it looks like. Or maybe I should be like an event planner. I've been having so much fun thinking of stuff for Gav and Rea's upcoming birthdays. And thinking about the wedding (however briefly I got to) was really fun too.

happy [?]

I had a happy weekend (for the most part).

I knocked out one of my life ambitions- to eat from a taco truck. That stuff was delicious!! And before you criticize me about it, I believe in having big and small life goals. I guess its like a bucket list, but thinking about death sends me into huge panic attacks, so I like to call them life ambitions instead.

The other half also told me that he is finally ready to set the date. I have heard this before, but I'm hoping that this time is for real.

I've also been thinking about my kids' birthday parties. Yes, I know they're in March, but it doesn't hurt to start planning early :) And it gives me something constructive to do with my days. Being bored makes me depressed, and I have been super bored and super depressed lately.

Here's to a happy week! (Hopefully)
