Missouri Ho!! (and other news)
It came so soon! Where did the last year and a half go?? I don't know. I'm ready though. I'm excited actually.
O and I worked on packing yesterday. He loaded the U-Haul with his dad and bro and I came to Wendy's house to pack up all the stuff we have here. We met back up about 7pm last night to have a spot of dinner and head to SuperTarget. We were going to get a few things for the road and the first couple days of being in the new house. You know, things like toilet paper, shower curtain liners, pillows, etc. Well, me being me, I got very distracted and we ended up buying Lilz some new bedding and bedroom stuffs. I'm very excited to decorate her room. I think it will be tons of fun and she's getting to be a big girl now so the baby stuff she had before is no longer going to work. I'll post pix as soon as the room is all set up. I'm actually hoping that I'll finally have something worthy of posting to saucydwellings . We'll see. I can't wait to get in this house and start playing. I think about this and then I think that we will only be there for a year. But, I'm tired of thinking that way. I'm tired of thinking that I'm not going to be someplace very long so what's the point?? I put up O's cemetery wall just to take it down a month and a half later. It's worth it if it makes me happy.
I've been thinking a lot about my life lately and what I want to do when I grow up. I'm still not sure. I know, you all are probably pretty annoyed by now that I can never make up my mind. I just feel like I should do something creative with my life. Why not?? I remember when I was younger I told my mom I thought I wanted to be an interior designer. She told me that not many people succeed at that line of work because it's all about clientele, who you know, and word of mouth. Well, I was AMAZINGLY, EXTREMELY, SHOCKINGLY shy at the time so I figured I would never make it because I couldn't build a good clientele base. That was the first and only thing I ever said I wanted to do until my Junior year of High School where I settled on Psychology. Although, I think I settled there because I had been trained to do that line of work all my life. I do love literature, but I've never wanted to be a teacher. Working on my friend's sample of her manuscript, I have pretty much decided I don't want to be an editor. I don't know. How did I even get on this topic.
In the last couple days I've done some culinary stuffs. I made cookies and cream mini cheesecakes and deboned, stuffed, wrapped, and cooked a duck. Can you believe it?? I boned a duck! It was messy, disgusting, bloody, invigorating, and empowering. I finally found some whole vanilla beans so I'm going to make some petite vanilla bean scones today. They serve these at Starbucks and The Pioneer Woman (whom I'm obsessed with right now) posted a recipe for them.
I guess I have to go now. My child is screaming at me to go put a new movie on for her. I need to wake up the husband and get cooking. Today is the last day here and we head for Missouri tomorrow. Wish us luck on our trip. I'm so ready.....
Oh yeah! I totally forgot!! May 2nd people. May 2nd is the day we start our JM 30 day shred. Are you ready?? Well GET ready because it's about to be on like Donkey Kong!
