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??

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...

Not my fault

The other night we had company for dinner. I had 3 dessert choices, which Matt said was excessive. Whatever. It isn't my fault that he doesn't like cherries and so I had to make flourless chocolate cake with almonds and ganache for him. The baby wanted black forest brownies and I just happened to have blueberry cheesecake on hand from the day or two before. Anyway, our guest was expecting too, and twins at that! It isn't my fault I burned my tongue on the hot-out-of-the oven pina colada cake. It smelled soooo good and the baby said he needed a bite RIGHT NOW. And who am I to say no to a little guy who is just trying his best to grow and get fat? What kind of mother would I be? I spend a majority of time in yoga pants, which I should not be blamed for. After all, if the makers of maternity clothing understood how hard it is to keep pants on a round belly, maybe they would be a little more innovative . And my pants always feel tight...maybe it is the dessert options at my hou...

My life plan

Some people have "bucket lists", which I admire, you know how I LOVE myself a good list. Strangely enough, I have yet to make a bucket list. This totally seems like something I would love to do; I love a good plan and lists make me unquestionable happy...maybe I can add "bucket list" to my "to-do" list. While I don't have myself a handy dandy "bucket list" I do have a well organized life plan. I assume God has some plans of His own for my life and I am more than happy to switch to His plan at any time. But until I see the sky writer/direct message from God, this is what I am going to be doing: 1- Move to Jersey for Matt's job. Ok, so he doesn't actually HAVE the job in Jersey but a plan has to start somewhere. Live in Jersey for a couple of years, home school Eliana and work on getting my parent educator certification so I can practice as a postpartum doula and parent educator. 2- Move back to Colorado. Enroll Eliana at Montessori Pea...
