Back On Track

Busy weekend at the wedding.

Driving sucked.

Food really sucked.

Dancing with Stephen rocked.

Rest of the weekend with his family also rocked.

Pretty much Stephen rocked. 🙂 We’re doing a lot better and fighting less. It’s nice.

And now I’d like to take a minute and say a big thank you to Captain Obvious via CNN.com:

Soul diva Amy Winehouse has damaged her lungs by smoking crack cocaine and cigarettes, her father said in an interview published Sunday.

Weeeell DUH.

Next, I’d like to thank my mother…this from our conversation earlier:

Mom: We have some cabbage in the garden if you want it.

Me: Ok, can I cook it in a slow cooker?

Mom: Yeah

Me: Wonder if that changes the nutritional value…

Mom: Nah, you have a lid on the slow cooker so the vitamins don’t escape.

Thanks mom. Good to know vitamins escape via evaporation. Heeeeeeeee.

And now to catch up with our top ten-age. (This is day 5 of 7, I’m not going to do like 30 for the days I missed…I shall do them tomorrow and the next day and the next)

1. I am easily amused

2. I allowed my cat to live another day.

(We will now break for that story)

How to tell your cat is REALLY mad you’ve been gone……he POOS on your COFFEE TABLE.

AND…..He goes in the bathroom and in what I’d like to think is an effort to clean up his poo…unrolls half a jumbo roll of expensive toilet paper.

So for the next two hours after I got home, Paco was forced to wear the roll of toilet paper wrapped around his mischevious little body. (It actually fell off mostly, but I tucked a long piece in his collar as his version of a scarlet letter for awhile. He finally dipped it in his water bowl and I had to be a good mom and remove it)

Ahem.

3. I am creative yet nice when punishing my cat. (Can I say punishing and be positive?)

4. I look good in pink

5. I am a thrifty shopper (120 dollar suit….50 bucks. THANKS ANN TAYLOR LOFT!!)

6. I returned all my phone calls today

7. I ate my vegetables today

8. I was able to control my panic attacks this weekend without medication

9. I bake good chocolate chip cookies

10. I am good at wrapping wedding presents. (Did I use that already???)

Hmmm…me go check.

Yeah I did.

10. I can almost always find the positive side of things when I try.

There. 🙂
