I don't wanna

-I don't wanna fold the load of laundry that I have already had to re-wash one due to neglect.
-I don't wanna answer anymore questions from Elie including but not limited to "What did God make cat's out of?" and
-I don' wanna call any more doctors offices to be told "no". Why is it that if I wanted to kill this baby I wouldn't get any flack, but since I want to give birth to it (instead of it being cut out of me) that no one is interested in helping me? What happened to "my body my choice"?
-I don't wanna deal with the trash can full of nasty diapers that is sitting in my hallway smelling up the upstairs. I hate taking out the trash
-I don't wanna have to look up all the groceries adds on line AGAIN because for some reason the mail man has decided he hates me and not longer puts them in the box.
-I don't wanna make dinner....and I'm not going to.
-I don't wanna deal with yet another hormone headache. Time to drink a coke and pop a Tylenol.

Those definitely don't sound like fun things to do. Tackle half the list tonight...do nothing tomorrow and tackle the other half this weekend. :-)

I can add a I don't wanna list too because this is my night to go home and clean everything that has been neglected for two weeks...I don't wanna!

Awwww friend! I wish I could help! None of that sounds like fun at all. I'm so sorry. Tristan asked me recently where God sleeps. Without putting much thought into it I told him God doesn't sleep. Now he asks "How come God doesn't sleep?" about a million times a day. And he has decided now he doesn't need to sleep either. God has lots of very important things to do and he takes care of everybody. He probably needs help and Tristan is willing to give it to Him. How can I discourage this? And should I??
I hear ya, girl!!!!! Especially about the endless 3 year old question...ugh!

Working on my Domestic Goddess Badge

I looked at the to-do list I made last week and am happy to say I can cross off almost everything on it. It only took me 2 weeks. I think I either need smaller lists or more time. Here is what I have been up to: -I have made 2 loaves of banana oat bread, 1 batch of blackberry strawberry freezer jam, 1 loaf of gluten free bread. -From 12 juiced grapefruit I made grapefruit curd and a pan of grapefruit bars. -My garden is almost completely done, including a upgrade in size. I am growing tomatoes, onions, peppers, potatoes , cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower , herbs, lettuce, spinach , green beans, snap peas, cucumbers, and kohlrabi. -I hung herbs to dry -I have folded massive amounts of laundry...with more yet to do. All washed with my homemade laundry soap. -I recovered the "green monster" which is another post entirely. -I added a sitting area in my bedroom, where I am currently sitting, so that my laptop has a home other than the kitchen table. - I got a new dining room table a...

Blogging

So I have lost the love of blogging. I have always believed it is a narcissistic pass time, yet enjoy it anyway. I have found I easily spend entirely too much time tied to my computer. By the time I check Facebook , e-mail, friends blogs, etc I can easily waste an hour, if not two, of time. A friend of mine just blogged about the same thing. Yes, I get the irony of a blog post about not blog posting, but alas, here it is: I just read a good friends blog about my blog. A great leader here in Boulder, Kevin Colon wrote this: “Hugh moved to Denver to do a training deal for an organization and he ended up starting a church. His blogging is not incredibly frequent but when he does blog….it’s good!” Now, while I’m humbled that a man like Kevin would even want to read my blog, I figured it was a good time to state once and for all why I only post once or twice a month. Simply this……..”I prefer to spend my time with people.” I’ ve always wondered how people have time to read blogs, let alo...

Preschool

I have a fabulous group of mommy friends, most with children within a few months in age of mine. I love them dearly. We talk about all kinds of things; parenting, our spouses, choices we make for our families. We don't all do things the same and I think that is great, I learn a lot from these Godly women in my life. As of late, the topic has been preschool. A few of us considered co-oping a preschool for our children and others felt lead to do things a little more traditionally. We ended up deciding not to do the co-op. Spread sheets were made, schools compared and now everyone is signed up for preschool for the beginning of next school year. Everyone but Eliana. We are not doing preschool next year, or maybe even ever. I have given this a lot of thought, and this is what I have come up with. These are our reasons, I don't expect my friends to make the same choice for their family. 1- I like Elie. I know other people like there kids too. I just don't feel the need to get ri...
