Starbucks Funny

This morning as I was in the drive thru at Starbucks, I could hear this car in front of me order. The woman asked for a sausage Mcmuffin. The Starbucks guy was like "would you like to Super Size that" The woman was so confused. The man said we dont have sausage Mcmuffins. The woman was still confused. Finally she also ordered a Carmel frap. It was so funny to listen to. The lady was clueless to what she was doing. Thankfully everyone was laughing.

Icky Past Couple of Days!

The last few days, namely Tues and Weds were horrible from a mommy standpoint. Haven was acting so irritably. I promise she screamed, not yelled or cried, all day long. I was about to go batty. I wasnt sure what was wrong. Im still not so sure. We had just been to her 1 year check up on Monday so I knew nothing was wrong from that standpoint. The Dr even held off on her shots cause I said how irritable she had been. I think she is getting another tooth, so that is probably a cause. But it was awful. Then Thurs and today she has been better, but Im still kinda on eggshells not sure what is up. On top of it all, I feel like Im getting the flu. Very achy, sicky, etc. But Im looking for the bright side. With the weekend here, Neil will be able to help out during the day so I can rest and also help me monitor Haven. Im sure when Monday rolls around things will be much better!

Jeans that fit

I am so excited! I love getting new clothes! I remember times in my life after going clothes shopping (usually for school) with my mom waking up just feeling so happy cause I had all these new clothes. Just a happy feeling in my gut. So I finally got some new jeans that fit properly. I had been wearing the two pairs that I got last year post preggo, so you know after losing baby weight, now they are too big. Ive made do, but then finally I got a few new pairs!! But they are so expensive! Even getting them at cheap places - they still are pricey for me. So just a little bit at a time. And I also got some new shoes - I dont think Ive gotten new shoes in YEARS! About time!

Sometimes Im mean

Even tho I consider myself nice and considerate, sometimes Im just mean. I cant help it - well, I can but usually its over and done before I realize. For example, yesterday evening on my way to my sisters I was coming down Chestnut between Teague and Nees and some big SUV pulls up next to me at the stop sign. Now, we all know that Chestnut is mostly one lane - besides the occasional only part-way lane two. Well the SUV guns it when its our turn to go, but there was a car in front of it that was already there, so SUV either had to go really fast to get in front of me or had to slow down to get behind me. I get a little cranky when everyone knows the lanes goes away but they try to hurry and get in front of me. So this time, I just went really fast too so they had to wait and get behind me. Now, I wasnt in a hurry, it really was of no consequence to me if they were in front of me. I just was being mean. But then I felt bad. Maybe next time Ill remember to be nice. :)

What kind of person are you??

It seems lately that God has been opening my eyes to new things (imagine that!) Mostly, the way different people view/react to situations, people etc. Ive learned that there are people out there that are huge people pleasers. They feel inadequate if someone disagrees with them. Or there are approval addicts. There are people that are perfectionists to a point that if they fail, their self worth is at stake. You know, Im not really like that. Im sure at different times in my life I have been. But since adulthood, I am confident in my identity in Christ. I know that it doesnt matter what people think/say its all about my obedience to Jesus and the fact that Im on this Earth for Him and His purposes. Not for myself, not even for my family. So I ask, what kind of person are you? Whom/what are you trying to please??

Trick or Treat!

If you are Justus you say Trick or Treat with such gusto! He was very good at loudly proclaiming it to the people who opened the door. He had a great time going door to door. He wasnt ever afraid or intimidated. Even when other kids were there he had no problem holding out his bucket and making himself heard. Before Trick or Treating, we went to a block party our church was hosting. We made some new friends and got to eat really yummy food. Justus and Haven got a goody bag and were running crazy with all the other kids. Then we went Trick or Treating, then Neil and Justus made it over to GiGi and Papas house. Haven and I stayed home so Haven could sleep. It was a very fun Halloween!

Smarties

I love Smarties! Of course nothing compares with Chocolate, but this is a great 2nd choice!! Ive been eating them like crazy cause for some strange reason I bought a huge ol' bag of them. And I figure its better for me than eating chocolate.
