So what happens now?

I've learned not to take life/friendships for granted. I enjoy everyday to the best of my abilities. But at the same time, I've had those moments in life when you think to yourself...when I get this...or achieve this....then I will be really happy. Well, what happens when you suddenly find yourself with everything you ever dreamed of? Yes, I am happy. So, it's not like I've gotten everything and I'm not happy. But it's like at the same time....it feels like I am just waiting for something to happen. Waiting for the ball to drop and take it all away. And that is scary. My hubby says I worry to much. Which is probably true. I guess it's hard to find that fine line between not taking things for granted and really enjoying every moment. I feel like I am making no sense. So, maybe I will just quit trying to figure it out.

Boo

Yesterday my husband and I were Boo'd. It was pretty cute actually. What happens is someone anonymously leaves a bag of Halloween goodies on your porch along with a little poem that explains what to do. Attached to the bag is a paper ghost with the word "BOO" on it. You are supposed to put your ghost on your front door and then BOO some more of your neighbors. The goal being for everyone to have a BOO ghost on their door by Halloween night.

The funny thing is, yesterday I was sitting at my desk and the front porch window is in our office. So I saw my friend's little girl. Sneak up onto the porch and leave the bag. It was the cutest thing. After she dropped it off I could see her running down the street. It will be fun to tell her all about my BOO bag tonight when we go to Six Flags because I know she will just giggle the whole time I'm telling her about it. Kids are cute!

So last night, hubby and I went to the store to buy Halloween candy to make Boo bags. Then we delivered them. It was fun. Hard to believe we still enjoy playing ding-dong-ditch. But we had a lot of fun doing it.

I also got sort of an odd compliment today. I was talking with some friends this morning and one of them has a sick child and was talking about the medicine she has to take. I said...oh that's the stuff that smells good. And then she gives me this strange look....because I don't have any kids. So I explain to her that I used to work as a pharmacy tech when I was in college and used to love to mix the kids meds because they smelled so good. Then she looks at me and says.....sometimes I forget that you are actually older than you look. I replied with....yeah, I actually know a few things. Then we just all started laughing. She always thinks I am so much younger than her...when she's really only 3 years older than me.

Song of the moment

I've been singing this song for the past few days....

Best I've Ever Had....Gary Allan

This guy has nice voice. I've always loved this song. I think this one might be a tad better than the Vertical Horizon version.

Getting back to normal

I am happy to say that I am beginning to feel so much better. I think I am finally getting my energy back. Woo hoo! I guess all that spoiling from the hubby has been the magic cure. Last night was a nice quiet night. Hubby brought home a pizza...yummy and we sat in front of the tube to catch up on Prison Break. We need to find some time to catch up on Nip/Tuck. I think we have around 4 episodes to watch. I love TIVO! I just let things record and then when I feel like doing nothing...we have a 3 hour marathon of whatever.

More later....I have a puppy that is eagerly awaiting to go on a walk. :)

Sleep

I've neglected my blog lately. Mostly because I have been so tired. I honestly haven't been up to anything very exciting these past few weeks. Just the usual routine with lots of extra added sleep. I've been going to bed ridiculously early. But the upside is lots of spoiling from the hubby. He's the best! :)

Patience

I need it. Do you have some?

Note to Self

Do not, I repeat DO NOT stay up until 3:30 a.m. just for the hell of it. Because you WILL wake up the next day feeling like complete and total CRAP. And no, I wasn't drinking but I feel like I drank the contents of the beer truck before it ran me over. Hmmm?

I said please...so you have to do it.

My hubby said this to me on Friday night. I forget why he orginally said this but it quickly became the theme/motto for the weekend. It made for a really interesting weekend. I don't want to bore anyone with the details, so I won't.

Ok, the truth is I posted a few of the details but I found myself feeling slightly embarrassed. So now you get the edited/no details version.

We had such a good time last night. Before the movie began a stripped down version of The Spree played a song from the movie. Then we watched the film. It was pretty good. I love Vince Vaughn, and Keanu Reeves cracked me up in this movie. I just hear his voice and all I hear is him in Bill and Ted, but he has a pretty funny role in this movie. So, after the movie was over Tim and The Spree had a Q & A with the audience, and then they were available to sign CD's and movie posters. Hubby and I stuck around so I could get my CD signed and I got a hug from Tim. Woo hoo. Which I thought was funny 'cause just the other night I dreamt about hugging Eddie Vedder.

Well, I need to run. I have a lot to do before the TCU game tonight. GO FROGS!
