Thursday Thirteen


Thirteen Things I have a LOVE/HATE relationship with This Time of Year


1…. I LOVE taking Samantha to the Pumpkin Patch :)
2. I HATE all the scray, gory, icky graphics and costumes
3. I LOVE the Monster Mash :)
4. I LOVE that all the annoying bugs are have died or are taking a leave of absense :)
5. I HATE pumpkin pie
6. But I LOVE pumpkin cheese cake dessert :)
7. I HATE raking
8. But I LOVE when Samantha jumps in the leaves :)
9. I LOVE when Samantha gets excited over choosing her perfect Halloween costume for the year
10. I HATE that my child cannot have a normal trick or treating experience because I am paranoid of weirdos and would rather not inspect every little piece of candy or explain these things to my 7 year old
11. I LOVE when kids come to our door though because Samantha loves it and I know I'm not a "candy tainting weirdo"
12. I LOVE looking at carved pumpkins because they are neat, even though I'm not a good pumpkin carver at all!
13. I LOVE carmel apples!

I Love my Husband!

So, last nite I was so tired from my new day right? Well, when Ron and I crawled into bed last night without a thought I asked "Honey can you rub my back" And as I'm laying there, I started thinking about his day that he told me about after work. They had a huge truck load. So 3 guys.....22,000 pounds of garage doors, operators and parts and they unload it all by hand. And there I was enjoying my back rub, yeah, I love my hubby :)

Anyway, only have the baby here today and I think I'm going to try nap while he's napping. See how that works out.

New Ventures

Monday was the start of a new venture for me. My friend was strapped for day care for her 9 month old son. So starting today, I will have Cooper 5 days a week from 7:45 to 4:45. And I might be helping her out with her pre-school daughter until she can find a more permanent situation. Today, was one of those days. She was good but it's all the constant watching. I'm so tired!
On one hand I really did want to say no because I enjoy my time of just being alone. And when I get sick, things tend to just knock me on my butt. I know the little bit of extra money will be nice. Maybe once I get a routine, it won't be so bad. I just really don't want to add any stress to my life. So oh well, here's to new ventures!
