Prittle-Prattle..

I'm in the process (slowly) of switching Jack's room and the office. Currently, the office is in the larger upstairs room with the window, and Jack's "room" which is actually just empty, is the hole between houses with no window. It's very small. BUT in lieu of Jack getting millions of toys for his birthday and being big and whatnot, he really needs his own room/playroom, even if he doesn't really sleep in it. So tomorrow hopefully I'll get the bulk of the moving done. I was originally planning on painting each room while they were empty, but I just don't foresee that happening. So the painting will have to wait.

I'm looking for shelving for my house, in almost any form, so if you or someone you know has some shelf or shelves, or something like a shelf that they do not want, let me know! I'm in dire need. Apart from the constant cleaning that seems to be required around here, the only other things we've been doing lately are working and trying to get a normal amount of sleep. Garrett's job is overwhelmingly annoying, and I figured out the other day that if he were doing the EXACT same thing for Starbucks, he would be making $40,000 a year with full benefits and paid vacations. Just a comparison.

I, on the otherhand, want to pull my hair out from work. In retrospect of our discussions of when is a good time to have another kid, I decided NOT UNTIL I DON'T HAVE TO WORK! It sucks. So we will probably never have another kid.

Anyways, I can feel this blog spiraling downward into my negativity so I'll fill you in on all the things I love about my life:

- Jack is hilarious. We taught him to lift both arms over his head when we say "go beavs!" and he points his fingers and it's darn cute.

- Jack also does "high five" and "pound it" which is also adorable.

- My fish died so i don't have to clean the bowl out ever again.

- Garrett cooks dinner pretty frequently and it's delicious.

- I like watching football now that I understand what "first down" means.

- I'm starting walking tomorrow, which excites me because i love cold foggy weather.

- I can't think of anything else at the moment.

I find the picture here of Garrett interesting...Is he contemplating something, or is he just farting?
