OMG, I just have to say, I think it's hilarious that Nichole Richie and Christina Aguilera had babies on the same day.  Isn't that a star's nightmare to have their children born on the same day as another famous person.  Well, maybe not.  People can learn to share the spotlight.  I just had to throw in my two cents on this one.

Tomorrow morning at 9:00 a.m. is my appointment with Jenny.  I'm actually excited.  I do want to transform myself.  I think it can be done.  LOL!

I decided I better blog here again.  I blog regularly on my doll blogs, my family blog, I blogged once last year.  duh, well, I read my few entries here and I just don't change one bit.  I still wrapped all of my presents the night before Christmas Eve.  That was after I finished sending writing out my Christmas cards.  I hit new lows and didn't mail out my cards until Monday the 24th.  There really is no reason why.  I took my family pictures in November, bought the stamps sometime in November too.  When I got around to writing out my cards I realized I lost my stamps.  I sent and bought more.  Naturally a few days later I found thm.  I have a ton of Christmas stamps now and of course I don't ever mail a thing. 

Well, I made a phone call today.  I called Jenny.  I joined two gyms last year and went maybe 20 times.  LOL.  I need to make some changes.  I thought I should have a food fest but the urge didn't really hit me.  I drank my second to last diet coke earlier.  Now that's going to be hard.  I have no idea what this experience will be like.  I hope it works for me.  Their commercials really work.  This latest one with Valerie she just looks so great I couldn't resist.

I'm staying up to watch Howard.  I'm anxious to see this appearance since I heard a little bit about it earlier today.  LOL. . .

Why can't I blog.  I love reading blogs, maybe I shouldn't write them.  My family blog hasn't been updated for months. 

I still receive emails with funny stories, poems, etc.  I suppose I will park them here.  I rarely forwarded them on.  Maybe someone can enjoy them here.

I thought this one was rather funny.  Sent by my friend T.

The World's Shortest Fairy Tale
Once upon a time, a girl asked a guy, "Will you marry me?"
 The guy said, "No,"
and the girl lived happily ever after and went shopping, drank
martinis, always had a clean house, never had to cook, stayed skinny, 
 and was never farted on.
 

The End

Will I blog two days in a row?  No, I'm kind of tired.  Looking for my digital camera.  I'm going to bed.  Goodnight.  I will leave you with some famous lyrics:

I'm so tired, I haven't
slept a wink

I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink

I wonder should get up and fix myself a drink

No no no

I'm so tired, I don't know what to do

I'm so tired, my mind is set on you

I wonder should I call you but I know what you would do

You'd say, wouldn't you wonder

It's no joke, it's doing me harm

You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain

You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane

You know I'd give you everything I've got for a little peace of mind

I'm so tired, I'm feeling so upset

Although I'm so tired, I'll have another cigarette

And curse Sir Walter Raleigh, he was such a stupid get

Is there a reason I cannot blog with any regularity?  Am I that boring?  Well, I've been keeping my family bloggy  up to date.  That's the "good" blog.  No evil there.  LOL. 

What can I tell you.  I got some work from my friend over the last few weeks.  That's good.  It's like having the work without the crap.  Without the morons leaving messages on your phone, without the stupid chain e-mails, without all the fattening food in the lunch room.  What a dream.  I really love my friend for that.  I realized I am a productive and useful person.  Well, I think I knew that.  But I really better get a lot of crap done around the house too.  I should take this time off to "get well," as if that is possible, or learn to live "with my diagnosis."  Again, if that is possible.

I don't know.  We'll see.  She gave me more work.  The key is now that the kids are back to school is not to stay up at night and work.  It's to actually do it during the day.  LOL.  A new concept. 

Why do I do this?  Every year I diligently purchase my Christmas gifts for everyone on my list, even adding some that don't deserve it.  This year I've been sick so I don't think any one deserves it.  What did I do.  I treated (is that a word?) well, I went on a major spending spree on myself on well, let's just leave the subject matter off the record for now.  But all the presents I've bought throughout the year, the last month, and several weeks, none of them are wrapped.  I just can't bring myself to do them.  Even tonight I just can't.  Maybe I should try.  Ok, I'll break down and try.  All the wrapping paper is downstairs with the scissors, the tape, the ribbon.  Why can't I just f-in do it.  No, I want to dress my dolls and enjoy myself.  Ok, sorry, going off on a rant.

But in other news. . .  On the 16th, the last day of school in the am on my daughter's desk, low and behold what should appear . . . drum roll please a little barbie cap and mittens, well they are actually gloves set.  They appeared on her desk.  Since it was the last day of school and the gifts had to be given out to the "kringles" she brought it home.  I told her it was hers to keep.  LOL.  Someone must have felt guilty.  Or their parents must have read to "..." on the tag and made them return it.  LOL. 

When do little kids learn to steal?  My daughter is in second grade.  They have this "Kris Kringle" gift exchange this week.  Every day this week they leave a "little" gift for their kringle in their stocking.  At the grocery store I saw a super cute mitten and hat set for little girls that was fuzzy and pink with a picture of barbie on the mittens and on the hat.  I couldn't resist it was so cute.  I know it exceeded the $5.00 max for the gift per day but it was so cute and since Barbie is my thing I thought well . . .

So when I picked up my daughter I asked her how did your Kringle like her gift?  My daughter said that someone took the gift.  I couldn't believe it!  She told me that everyone takes the gifts out of their backpacks and then after lessons they have a few minutes to put the gifts in the stockings.  She told me that she went to get a tissue and came back to her table and that the gift was gone.  Can you believe this?  She told me she told the teacher and that also several other kids saw the gift set too.  I said well someone saw it and made sure no one was looking and swarmed.  Is Barbie that popular and powerful?  Damn.  Little thief.  It had to be a girl!  Oh well. 

I guess it was a lesson for Steph.  She's only 7 but I guess that's how she learns.  How sad.  I guess someone in her class has a warm and very cute two hands and head this evening.  But what a bummer they won't get to wear the set to school.

I wonder if I should make a big stink about this?  I feel like I should.  I mean I was at the school today.  I brought the class $30 of pizza for the December birthdays.  My daughter's birthday was actually in November but since her birthday was the only November birthday she got to celebrate with the December birthdays.  None of the other parents showed up.  I came set everything up.  The other parents did donate cupcakes, plates, napkins, chips, juice boxes, etc.  But even though I am sick (lol) and not working, I went in, took pictures took the time did all that. 

So you can imagine how shit on I feel right now . . .

Since I did not properly explain at the beginning of my blog, I'll add another entry about what's going on soon.

I'm just starting out here.  I've been through a major health change in my life.  I just turned 40.  I'm kind of a mess.  Let's just start there.
