"You're sitting in a chair...in the sky!"
As you know (and if you don't then you're not a regular reader of my super informative and highly educational blog) I like to post videos once in awhile. Most are funny because.... well ....they just are.
You have to watch the entire 4:11 video. It is so true. I will stop complaining about so many things (but I do love my drive-up at the bank).
(be patient...it takes a minute)

Random bits-o-info
Here are a few things I've been thinking about for a blog, but none are all that interesting alone. I've compiled a few for you to nibble on. I will also give credit where credit it due.
1. If you aren't hungry now you will be after visiting this website. It compiles recipes from websites and blogs. You click on the picture and it takes you to the site. Thanks Jen. Keep a napkin handy for the drool. http://www.tastespotting.com/
2. Another good food one is http://www.ourbestbites.com/ Thanks Becky.
3. I made homemade pasta this weekend. It was so delicious. The most time consuming part was making the dough but if you have a food processor it would be tons easier. I borrowed Jen's pasta roller-outter and made a little lemon butter sauce to go on it. Fabio would be proud. Thanks Jen for the use of the machine.
4. Berkley chose her own hairstyle today. Notice the little bows on her ears. They are courtesy of her Build-a-Bear. She has been obsessed with the
headband since yesterday. Thanks daddy for letting Berkley's personality shine.

It was so good to sit and chat and get caught up. Bruce was a trooper, he didn't know anyone yet he was happy to go and did not embarrass me. Thank you to everyone who came. Let's do it again.

Creatures of Habit
Humans are creatures of habit. We all have something we do everyday, or every Sunday afternoon, etc. I was thinking about this as I dished up my salad from the rockin' salad bar at the COB.
My salad always consists of lettuce (duh!), spinach, peas, hard boiled egg whites (I try to pick out the yolks if I can get away with it and no one is looking), 1 sweet pickle, 1 beet, 1/4 C. cottage cheese, and lemon juice on top. Every darn day.
Other habits that I have:
I put my left shoe on first. One day I picked up my right shoe and went to put it on and it felt oh so wrong. I had to put it down and start with the left.
I like to go to bed with my socks on, but about midnight kick them off. Every night.
If I ride the bus - going to work I tend to sit on the left side of the bus, coming home is the right side. Weird.
I fall asleep on my left side nearly every night (so does Berkley). Once in awhile I'll be on my stomach.
Every morning I hit my snooze at least once, but usually 3 times. I cannot remember the last time I got up right when my alarm went off.
Oatmeal every morning sometime between 8-8:30am, 3 minutes in the microwave and there is a little line in my mug so I know exactly how much water to put in it. Not too runny, not to pastey. Oh so right!
What kind of creature are you????

Thank you muffin!
Bruce is the best at giving gifts. He always thinks of unique things and loves to surprise me. One of the first gifts he gave me was when we were dating. He sent me on a savenger hunt around our neighborhood.
He thought ahead (which if you know him, is not his strong point). He sent me tulips and had them delivered EARLY so they would have time to open before Valentines Day.
Let's all sigh together..."Ahhhhhhh...."

Shout out!
I have to give a huge, ginormous shout out today to my Connor, Kennedy and Paige. Let me set the scene:
Snow and cold have been upon us since mid-December. The backyard is the bathroom for 2 dogs, one being as big as a horse. The snow starts to melt and what is left behind??????
Yes, my adorable and obedient children ventured in the toxic wasteland (a.k.a our backyard) with shovels in hand to start the environmental clean-up.
Not one ounce of complaining and guess who is the only one who stepped in a pile?
Me.
p.s. we're still not done yet...much of it is encased in snow and ice. I pity our neighbors during the Spring thaw. ~P.U.~
