And Apprently October Never Happened...

Hey, everyone!

So apparently it's been almost two months since I've blogged. October did happen I swear. And I did try to write a post on two different occasions, but deleted both. So happy November, everyone!

Before I start to type, I am going to let you know now, readers, that I believe there is some sort of food particle in my keyboard because my comma key is not always making a comma. So please do not judge poor grammar that I may have missed as I probably typed it but something's wrong. Also, probably a good sign I need to clean out my keyboard. Or stop eating and typing if I cannot handle complex tasks such as getting the food into my mouth. God, I'm an attractive person...

I will start with a Kylie update today as that's really the reason anyone reads this in the first place.
She's awful.
Ok. She's not awful but there's been some...uh....regression.... since I've gone to work. I don't think she's handling this change well and she is letting us know she is not happy about being home alone. For a long time we were able to let her have the run of the house and she was fine all day long. She'd sleep on the couch as soon as we'd leave, but whatever. If that was the worst of what she did, so be it. Except it wasn't. I'll spare the details and just give you a brief recap...



~Toilet = living room
~4 old ink cartridges= consumed (on carpet)
~4 pairs of socks= consumed (apparently 4 is our magic number)
~Clip flashlight off my Nook = consumed
~Luke + turkey baster + hydrogen peroxide = induced vomiting
 

So now we live in our box while Luke and I leave the house. Done and done. We'll try again next year.

Speaking of work, I have some exciting news... I HAVE FRIENDS!

I know, right?!

A month or so ago I called Luke and told him I was going out to dinner with some friends from work and he made me repeat myself 2 more times. Right?? Super exciting!
Not to say I didn't have friends before I started working, but now I have work friends! It's great! And I work with a GREAT group of people. I won't point out specific people because I don't know how they'll feel about it, (And when one certain kindergarten teacher heard I blogged she thought I was nuts for writing something on the internet that ANYONE can read)but I just love some of these ladies! I really enjoy going to work. And the kids I work with?? So much fun. I really do love kids. (One of them looked at me the other day and said "I'd like to be your son." I told him that would probably be an awkward conversation with my husband and he replied, "That's ok. We can do it.". Melts your heart, right????

Ok so I wasn't going to mention this, but against my better judgement, here it is....


I am now 30.

::ACK::

I know. 

I keep seeing everyone on Facebook post about turning 30 and they seem relatively ok about it. How...? I'm not ok with it. Or, I wasn't ok with it. I'm getting better with it. But I'm not totally ok with it.
I always thought I'd be in a different place in my life when I turned 30 then I am now. (And I'm not necessarily talking about location.) I just mean as me. I thought I'd be in a different place as me. (I am also grappling with the mental image of ovaries that look like raisins, but I digress...)
I am now 30 and there is nothing I can do about it. (Except suck it up and accept it. And work that much harder to be who I want myself to be.) Whatever that is.

                                                            INTERMISSION


I have decided I am blog post bipolar. I have to be in a certain mood to write and last night when I started writing this, I was in a bloggy-kind of mood. This morning as I finish this, not so much. (I was woken up at 7:20 on a Saturday....I'm typically hostile anytime before 10am on a Saturday) So I will end here. If I have pictures, I will post them.

Thanks for reading about our crazy. I will leave you now so I can put the mountain of clean, folded laundry away that has been sitting on my living room loveseat for 5 days now.
I take that back. A week. We started laundry last Sunday.
Ok. almost a week. 6 days. I'm being dramatic.
Either way, I have to put it away because my in-laws will be here in less than 3 hours.

Oh. Luke is vacuuming. Wow. Cool.

On that note... HAPPY SATURDAY! :D

The only picture I have to post. (And another obvious sign I need kids....) I don't think we'll ever outgrow bad dog school.
