Last Sunday some coworkers and I went to a beautiful outdoor restaurant to catch up...(I have been gone since May remember) It was such a perfect night filled with laughter and banter only true girlfriends can offer....

The food was damn good too...but I really went for the wine!

I have been there before on my anniversary...and guess what I WORE THE SAME OUTFIT!

Gah! I guess I just pulled my handy black capris and found a matching shirt...I have not dressed up since the baby~

Last week my 2 very special friends from college came over...we have gotten together every three months for the last 10 years...this summer we made it our goal to make it once a month since 2 of us our teachers and the other a nurse that works swing and gets stretches during the week off....it is AMAZING to me that all of a sudden there are 7 of us!!! Not including hubbies...(I have since remarried and one has divorced...2 of us suffered miscarriages and then had sons only months apart!) I adore the book the Ya Ya Sisterhood and have called them my Ya Ya's ...

Baby J and Baby E ~I know I know he is HUGE...his mom knows too...she is a neonatal nurse so trust me she is not overfeeding him...it is just his genes!!! He is only 5 months old in this pis!

**Did you know that you can know order G*P and Old N*avy off the same screen?....holy crap I am in heaven...plus I got free shipping and had 10 bucks off...ahh I love the bargain buzz I get shopping from home.

That is so gross I should get up and go throw it RIGHT NOW!

strange posting about my weekend ON the weekend....not Monday morning at school...loving my new notebook...




thrift sale is OVER! Made pretty good money for living out in the booneys ...met some new nicer neighbors my age who have one every year and said we should coordinate to get more traffic. I don't know why I love having thrift sale...it feels good to purge the house of clutter and go through all the old outfits...only one person pulled the ole SWTICH the PRICETAG SCAM...f'ers





I am meeting my girlfriends from work tonight at an outdoor restaurant with wine as the main menu item! I can't wait...





Speaking of weight...( I am a homophone dork) I mentioned in my first post back that I lost 37 pounds...please don't think I am bragging anyone who reads here knows I am no slim person normally! the same thing happened with K ..it fell off...I think I have so much adrenaline I don't make eating a priority...plus the 34098540596 trips up the steps doesn't hurt either...





anyway my point is I always GAIN IT back and hate myself....I need to get rid of the the muffin top...I asked my Dr about a tummy tuck, but he said NO! DO YOGA...gah...I used to be a runner, but other than that I hate exercise unless it is a sport like swimming or V-ball...but gyms, and aerobics classes HATE! I did Yoga once this week and did feel better...with the thrift sale I was too busy (see already finding excuses!) anyway I would take any great tips about the losing the BUDDA





UPDATES: Kdog has not pulled any lashes out...I really restrained myself from looking on the net about it because I know there is an OCD connection or it can just be a bad habit...like I mentioned before she only did in the car...she went camping with her dad 5 hours away and I am praying she didn't...





Baby J seems less fussy before bed with only using nursery water and Ventaire bottles...I had been using whatever bottles were clean before but I tried only the Ventaire the last two days and I think I notice a difference...





I was up from 3am -4:30 pm last night ...Baby J was fast asleep I just couldn't sleep FIGURES!





We get a super deal on baby formula from a guy J works with but miscalculated our time and hod to go to our country grocery store....26 BUCKS for can!!! shit...with that and gas I could be lower class very soon! You will see me on the news..caught on a gas station security tape driving off because I can't afford to pay...okay...picture time!

Me -Not pregant anymore

Daddy and Baby J....

no not cute pics of my children...FAMILY STUDIO PROFESSIONAL pictures that were scheduled for tonight.



We have to cancel for couple reasons some of which have been the cause for concern a round the teachbroeck estate the last few days



1. I have some stupid infection in my eye....SEXAY! (taking two meds for)

2. K has this all over body rash.....hoping it is viral next step dermatologist

3. K pulled 75% of her eyelashes out.....at first I was bothered a bit and there was only a few gone...she said she was just bored in the car....not stressed or feeling ignored...as a teacher I know that kids taking out their body hair can be a warning sign of some emotional distress (which ps on Friday my mother hinted could be MY fault and maybe I should checked into depression meds) YHA THAT IS A WHOLE DIFFERENT STORY!



anyway K went to her dad's and was nervous he would would notice ...but with only a few gone I told her to tell him she was rubbing her eye...fast forward to Monday when K came through the door (she is suppose to be home Sunday night THAT IS A WHOLE Different STORY!) and they were mostly GONE! I cried...I think I was in shock...she looked sickly....so after a few hours of thinking the worst we decided to just watch her and see....she never pulls them out when she is visibly upset....she doesn't do it when I am feeding the baby or she just got in trouble...just in the car once with me and once wither her dad....





anyone else out there know of a child doing this? don't tell me if they ended up in the looney bin as a teenager....of course if she does her ole ma will be there to keep her company!!



OKAY enough of that...but boy it feels good to write it!



tonight we have BEANBAGS....yes in the ole Midwest we throw beanbags through a hole in a box and call it a sport! Along with beer what could bet a better 2 hour date with my husband once a week? Speaking of beer....I am a sellout ...Beebop I hope you are sitting down. I have been a Millerchill girl for the past 2 summers....well I tried swig of Bud Light Lime and DAMN it is better....



So tonight 2 hours with my BLL and forget about the many trips to the dr...the bat in my house...the thrift sale that is not ready in my garage, the 3 hours of fussiness I get again the rest of the week, the softball games to get to, the bills to pay, the husband I rarely see awake BEANBAGS HERE I COME.....(ps I really suck and don't much like the game...but 2 hours!!!)
