random thoughts

This is why I have a full-time job people! I can't sit still for very long. Sure I'm enjoying my afternoon off from work due to the snow (see post below), but I'm already wandering what I should do. That's why I'm writing my second blog post of the day...Can you believe it? Of the day! Well, it was a whole week last time that I took off from posting. So consider this me catching you up on things.....


Emptying my brain.....Here are all the random thoughts that are swirling around in my brain right now. (I do this with my kiddos for their writer's notebook. I give them 2-3 minutes to write everything that comes to mind. The best is when one or two say things like "what if nothing is in my head." hmmmm.....)


1) still trying to figure out why the Olympics announcer from last night said "He is like a nice tall glass of water" when this man did this cool ski jump. Ughhhh come again?

2) why is Ina Garten so amazing at "throwing" together dinner parties. Really? Her table setup would cost me a fortune and several trips to Pier 1. It all just appears in her pantry on the Barefoot Contessa set. So unfair!

3) I still need to clean my bathrooms.

4) I hope the chilli I just made isn't too spicy.

5) I can't believe I got asked 2 different times this weekend when we were having a kid. People want me to be pregnant too! Cool!

5) Leander ISD starts at 10 am tomorrow. Hope I don't slide off the road over all the bridges I counted today (6). Whoo hoo for sleeping in though!

6) Why doesn't Scholastic book clubs celebrate Dr. Seuss' upcoming birthday (March 2nd) with his books? I want to use up all my free points on my nursery set. I'm not pregnant in case you're wondering. See random thought #5.

7) I'm glad Randy submitted our taxes last night. More importantly, I hope he did them correctly. He's super intelligent. He also used one of those "any fool can do their taxes by using this tax program." I'm not negating his intelligence with the cool tax programs; I just don't want to wear pinstripes anytime soon.

8) The Neely's ALWAYS cook a pork dish.

9) I hope Randy makes it home okay. That truck is his baby. Did I say baby again? Okay, okay, I'll stop.

10) Mopac is sleeping again! This is what she must do everyday I'm not here. What a slacker!
