uninspired

-

That pretty much sums up how I’ve been feeling about blogging lately. 

This is a busy week and I have lots of exciting things coming up, yet I just feel kind of blah in translating it to the blog. 

Blah, blah, blah. 

Ever get that way?

My son is standing now, starting to let go and stand unassisted for very brief moments of time.  Walking is definitely in his near future!

My daughter, cooperative as usual with the camera.

Our dog is feeling pretty much back to his old self.  He is tolerating the E-collar.  The staples come out next Monday and that is probably about when we will find out his test results.

We added another cat to our family yesterday.  When she gets a little more comfortable around here I will get some pictures of her too!

They are both so cute! I love when baby's are first letting go and taking those first steps. They are so happy and yet so unsure at the same time. You can actually see it in their face. lol

Such a cute picture of your little girl too. Poor Baxter at lease he'll be getting better soon. I hope the test results are good!

Oh I meant to say something about being uninspired about blogging. When I feel this way is when I usually do a meme on questions. Like when I did one on life experiences stuff like that.

I know how you feel. Sometimes it's hard to get jazzed up for that normal everyday stuff. But then I remind myself that it's those everyday moments that make up our lives. So thanks for sharing yours! ;-)

I think it's the weather. When it's raining and such it's easier to pour yourself into your blog... not much else to do. But when the weather turns nice this time of year people want to get outside and enjoy it.

Feel free to take a break if you need to! We'll always be here when you come back. :)

Amen sister!!! That's EXACTLY how I've been feeling...forced myself to post something last night...thinking it might get me in the "mood" today! At least it was "wordless Wednesday"....just ENJOY the week...and if you get the "feeling" then sit down and spill the beans...otherwise I'll keep checking until your "up and going".
Ready for a new BP DVD?
Hope the exercise is going well!

I have totally been feeling that way lately...I mean, it has been a week between my posts!

How old is Eli? Lily is 14 months and has just started standing on her own. She took one wobbly step, then sat down! :-)

Yes, I get that way alot. I felt that way last week. I just sit and say "you need to write something, now" and that doesn't help either. But I thought I was the only one that ran out of stuff to say. LOL

heehee Those cones are always so silly looking. The one time we tried to put Chewy in one, he managed to get it off and chew it!

Glad the pup is starting to feel better!

Oh, and yes. I definitely feel 'blah' about blogging some times. That's why some times, my posts are just 'blah'. LOL

I feel ya on the blog thing. It's hard to get motivated to blog sometimes. I get so overwhelmed that I just have to step away and re-group. :) Hope you have a good day!

Champ

We met you in May of 2004 at the Humane Society. You were the only dog who could have cared less that there were humans walking around.  While all the other dogs barked and barked at us, you lay on the floor curled up and awake, yet quiet and uninterested.  We almost passed you by but after mentioning you to one of the employees they said you were a good boy and that we should take you out for a walk.  Once outside you perked right up and wanted to sniff everything and explore and didn't seem at all like the dog you were inside.  We were hooked. We agreed to take you home and took care of the necessary arrangements.  Your name was Champ because the Humane Society had picked you up on the side of the road, very injured in what they assumed was a fight with another dog.  We were told you were maybe two years old at most.  The Humane Society fixed you up and you healed like a, well, like a champ.  We decided to rename you Baxter. We brought you h...

I’m more than just a stay at home mom.  I read. (see, the stack has grown since last time I showed this picture) I watch television. I exercise. I floss every day.  I go out with girlfriends. I spend time with my husband. I pay attention to current events.  I enjoy cooking. I enjoy drinking wine. I enjoy cooking while drinking wine.  I love trivia games. And Boggle. I make sure most of the food we have in our house is healthy. I love music. I am silly. I am serious. I DON’T like to be scared (meaning that my husband really needs to let me know when he comes home unannounced in the middle of the day and just lets me come downstairs to find him standing there staring at me like a criminal because for a split second I was sure he had just broken in  and that is the ONLY reason I screamed bloody murder and about lost my lunch before realizing who it really was). I am anxious. I am focused. I like schedules and routines. ...

Except Death and Taxes and School Pick Up Problems

Dear you, Hi there! We haven't met so I thought I would introduce myself.  I am a mom of two, a fifth and a third grader, at the school our kids attend.  You might recognize my car, as you drive by it nearly every day when you pass me (and plenty other parents) 10 minutes before school gets out to park at the very front of the pick up line. In a spot that is not a spot. Genius!  I mean why should you get to school early like many of us other parents do and park appropriately in the pick up lane when you can just come nearly at the last minute, go around a line of 30 vehicles, and park in a spot that is not a spot? Why didn't I think of that? You probably have special circumstances.  I'm sure you think that NOBODY else in the pick up lane,  many of whom have been sitting there waiting for 30-45 minutes have ANYTHING better that they could be doing with their time. I especially loved the day that you were parked there and ran over to grab your child and...
