My lack of blogging has got me to thinking that I should expand upon my blog and include a bit more variety. Maybe I’ll venture into topics of discussion that really peak my curiosity or rustle a nerve. Quite possibly even venture into food reviews and anything else that I think could be remotely interesting. With blogging the possibilities are practically endless and you have your own clean canvas to write about whatever your heart’s desire.

These past two months have been a very trying time for me. I have been very ill and admitted to the hospital several times. Quite honestly, I don’t think I have been this ill since when I was a little girl dealing with all the obstacles my disability threw in my way. It is hard not feeling up to par. It’s even harder when all you feel like you do is bitch and complain. To state my point, guess what, I’m in the hospital again! Add that as item #32 on my bitch and complain list.

There are so many other hard things going on in my life right now that seem to keep stressing me out. My husband and I are trying to achieve something, but have been unsuccessful. We are hoping that this month will be our happy month and our dream will finally come true. It’s so hard, especially for someone like me, to not have complete control of a situation. I like control. It’s like you try so hard for something that seems so easy for other people to achieve, yet you just can’t get there. Sure you’ve gotten there once, but that ended in heartache before the happiness could even begin. I guess we can only continue to pray and hope that our dream will come true.

This blog is pretty much all over the place – I blame the pain medicines. I hope that when my mind becomes less foggy, I can provide more quality posts. Possibly more gushing over cheese? Who doesn’t love cheese?

Freezing. Yes, you heard me right! I have been freezing my precious ass off for over a week. I am not used to this weather at all. If I am forced to live in temperatures that are less than 20 degrees, at least you think I’d get some snow. I could then at least make a snowman or have a snowball fight or do something! What can I do with cold weather, but no snow? Raise my heating/electric bill?

Onto a happier subject, Christmas is quickly approaching. I love this time of year – all the pretty lights, festive trees, and yummy goodies. However, heading to your local Wal-Mart is a task because you are surrounded by a mass of crazy Christmas shoppers. It only seems to get worse as December 25th quickly approaches.

Maybe I’ll have something more usual to blog about later, but for now I’m going to go curl up in my bed with the heated blanket on. This has become my nightly ritual this week!

Only two more days until the weekend! I am so tired and stressed out this week that I just can’t wait until the weekend is here for my mind to vegetate. Oh wait, that probably won’t happen though, since I have to work on my financial statements for my Managerial Accounting class. It is fun stuff, I kid you not!

I’m also in the process of trying to get our house in some semblance of order. I am still trying to organize closets, put stuff away, and all that other fun stuff that everyone knows I adore so very much. I wish I had the desire to clean and organize all day long – to be one of those orderly people. Maybe someday I’ll develop that skill.

Are you a clean freak?

Life has been so hectic…..

I have been so tired all day. I really can’t think of anything interesting or quirky to write other than my husband is making another delicious dinner tonight. He is cooking Swedish Meatballs and they smell great. I can’t wait until dinner is served. What are your thoughts on Swedish Meatballs?

What do you think of Swedish Meatballs?

Why does the weekend fly by so fast?  It seems like just yesterday was Friday and I was looking forward to the weekend.  Now within 12 hours I head back to the daily grind of the work week.  Last week was very stressful and busy, I hope this week isn’t as stressful.  There is lots to be done at work.  I am just happy that I’ve finally had the opportunity to work on a project.

For the past few hours I’ve been looking through old videos that I have stored on my computer.   They are mainly from a few years ago and are very funny.  Looking back, I now see what an obnoxious person I was when I drank.  Good thing I rarely drink anymore.

I better be going because the hubby almost has dinner ready.  Tonight he made shrimp scampi and I can hardly wait!  Prior to surgery I hated fish/shrimp/any seafood with a passion.  These days I actually seem to like it.  Very weird.

Be sure to check out my good friend MrsBlackBanana!

As I sit here all I can smell is the wonderful aroma of what my husband has cooking on the stove.   He is a great cook and I look forward to every fresh made meal that he prepares.   How did I get so lucky?   Tonight he is making an asian-inspired dish that I’m sure will be absolutely delightful!

Earlier today we took our fuzz faced kids to the dog park and they absolutely enjoyed it.   Our dogs really love to play with other dogs and run around.   I think that we should take them to the dog park more often so that they have the opportunity to socialize and get some of their energy out.

After the dog park we went to the local Wal-Mart.  We had forgotten my wheelchair at the house and, of course, because of the dreary weather I was hurting.  My husband told me I should use one of those motorized carts, so I decided to use one instead of hobble the store in pain.   All throughout the store I was starred at by people, I’m assuming because I was using the cart.  Seriously, just because I’m young doesn’t mean I can’t use those carts.  I have a disability.  It’s like, “do you want me to get up and walk for you?“   In all actuality I really wouldn’t even need to get up and walk if someone just looked at my legs they would notice my disability.   People in this state just never seem to amaze me with their ignorance!

The hubby is calling me for dinner.  I’m off to go enjoy that mouth-watering food.   What is everyone else having for dinner?

It’s a Saturday morning and I’m up before 9am.  What is up with that?   What happened to the days of sleeping in and loving it?   I guess your body gets adjusted to getting up early during the week for that daily grind that when it comes weekend time it just wants to stay on schedule.   No more sleep until noon days for me.

I’m really itching to go visit Southern California again.  I miss my friends and family down there.  It’s not easy to just up and go on vacation though with four fuzz faced kids.   Why do we have four dogs?   Really, it’s beyond me at times.   I think that we should give two of them up to good homes and cut down our pack.   My husband and I discussed why we possibly have four dogs and we only came to one conclusion….   We had a miscarriage last year and since then have been unsuccessful in becoming pregnant.   We think that we have all our fuzz faced freaks to fill the void.

In other news, I feel blah today, like I’m coming down with something.  My husband has been feeling ill for the past two days, maybe I’m catching his little bug.   I think I’ll just go downstairs and whip up some breakfast for the hubby and then zone out on the couch.
