So yesterday I mentioned how I love picture texts and look what I got! One from Ian saying "hello". I love him! I am trying to think of the perfect birthday gift for him. His 28th is coming up soon. Hmmm. Any ideas?? I'm a horrible gift thinker upper. I need specifics so suggestions are welcome! He loves surprises! I had a full day yesterday. I knocked off most of my list. It really does help to write it all down. At least then, with the items checked off, you realize that you actually did accomplish a lot! Yay! Now, if I could just locate that list this morning! So anyway, I was beat last night so I laid in my bed reading my book. I was way ahead of Aaron, so I took some time off and now he is 100 pages ahead of me and I am scrabbling to catch up. Our plan of discussing the story is not working well because we are not on the same page! At one point, the author said she felt like a "hardass motherfuckin amazonian queen". I bet she did hiking that trail with no shoes on.....I don't want to ruin the story for you but she did lose her shoes at one point......In that moment, I was all like, "it's been a long time since I felt like that. I want to feel like that. I bet it feels awesome!" So I laid my book down and went to check on the kids. Sam was having a couple friends stay the night and I hadn't heard them for awhile.....and that's because they werent here. They had left and it was midnight. They decided to walk to Casey's. I stomped out of the house in my pajamas and got in my truck and searched the sideroads and when I got to Casey's, there they were all loaded up with pop and candy, laughing and having a good old time.....until they saw me...the hardass motherfuckin amazonian queen. See? Just minutes before that second in time, I was wishing for that! Dreams do come true. I asked. I recieved the opportunity. Yay! To make a long story short, I'm pretty sure, Sam will not be leaving the house at midnight again......or at any point without telling me. His friends on the other hand just sort of looked at me like I was a total dumbshit and drank their pops.....although, they didn't say much. I wonder what I can ask for today? What exactly do I want?? That is the question.
I'll tell you what I am loving today....
1. Skirts. I'm wearing one. Yay!
