The Christmas crap is up! (most of it)
Finals are this week, and term papers are due by the 15th. I hate this semester, I am glad to be done with it.
We finally wrote down some baby names for this poor little girl. Have we picked the names? No, but at least we have ideas now.
3 weeks of pregnancy left, with any luck she will be early so we have more time to recover before next semester of school.
Collin is doing great in school. Has had only one naughty day since the beginning of October and he has started to read on his own.
Quintin has finally started saying real words and when he says them, he is very proud of himself.
I am looking forward to the end of this year and starting something new and hopefully a little different than what this year was.

Did I mention I am not good at daily postings?

November - 20 - I am thankful for an early paycheck so that I can eat something besides peanut butter and jelly.

November - 19 - I am thankful for germ x. All of my classmates are sick and come to classes no matter what because it is bad when we miss something. However I want to sit as far from them as possible. Hooray for germ-x.

November - 18 - I am thankful that my AC is finally turned off. Windows are open with nice fresh air. That and a better electric bill.

November - 17 - I am thankful for organized deadlines and consistency. I love it when a professor sticks to the syllabus they made. Alterations and changed dates throw me off sooooo badly, sometimes I don't get those assignments done when they are extended. I know it's weird but I need that same date. If you give me an extension, I procrastinate and then forget.

November - 16 - I am thankful for kindergarten. Collin comes home each day saying new words (not always a positive), reading new words and writing.

November - 15 - I am thankful for perspective. Just when I think my life is well, sucking, I see someone else who I can not even compare to and feel blessed (and a little humbled)

November - 14 - I am thankful for ambition. It has been rare lately but when it is there I take huge advantage of it. Especially the nesting factor and getting my house ready for baby and Christmas.

November - 13 - I am thankful for naptime and that my two year old doesn't require a huge routine to take a nap. Favorite blanket, say night night and he goes and lays in his own bed with little complaint.

Uugh I suck at daily things.

November 7th - I am thankful for a professor that allows second chances to make up assignments and understands that students do have lives outside of college.

November 8th - I am thankful for NO SOLICITING signs that actually work, or at least people read them and understand what they mean.

November 9th - I am thankful that on this day I am now 33 weeks pregnant and eventually will hit the big 40.

November 10th - I am thankful for my Daddy who on this day turns 60 years old.

November 11th - I am thankful for the lame food storage we have at the moment, that is helping us get through life when bills are extremely tight.

November 12th - I am thankful that in 30 days, this semester of doom will be over.

November 6th

I am thankful for things that cause double takes. Someone in our neighborhood purchased the Delorean from Back to the Future. I am not sure if it is the real one from the movie but it has the engine parts on the back from Part 2. Everytime I see it driving down our street or the boulevard I have to have a double take even though I have seen it more then once. I don't know anyone can look at this car and not smile, such a fun flashback of the 80's. (no that is not a real pic of the car in our neighborhood)

November 3, 4, and 5th

November 3rd. I am thankful for a friend that was willing (because they wanted to see it) to watch Michael Jackson's This is it! What a wonderful flick and I am glad I didn't have to go alone.

November 4th - I am thankful for the ability to procrastinate and still do well on a test or paper. I don't know how it happens, perhaps luck or I work better under pressure but I am thankful. Knock on wood, I hope I don't get punished for admitting that I procrastinate....

November 5th - This is lame. I am soooooo thankful for Tums, Rolaids and Pepsid AC. It lets me sleep at night, makes the burning nausea go away, too bad they don't taste good though.

November 2nd

I am thankful for parents who are willing to take may kids every Monday night so that I can go to class. My mom rushes home from work so she can be there by 4:30 so I can be at class by 5:00. She gives them dinner and deals with their incredibly picky eating habits. My dad takes Collin outside and teaches him about quads and tools. (somehow it is a good thing and bad thing that he does this) Thank you parents for putting up with our little family.

November 1st

Like always I must steal the blog ideas. Everyone is attempting to do an "I am thankful" thingy everyday (I will try to do everyday, no guarantee)for the month of November. Forgive me world if some of these sound forced out or really lame. It has been a long month of crud and I am trying to see something positive and happy. So here it goes.

November 1- I am thankful for a husband that puts up with all of my....everything. School complaints, work complaints, why does my five year old act like this complaints, is it Christmas yet I am tired of being pregnant complaints and everything else. Sorry Joe if your ears are about to fall off due to my verbal regurgitation I give you everyday when you come home from work.
