It would be nice to get a small plasma or LCD TV in our bedroom. At the moment we have our old living room TV up there on a TV stand that is a little too short! Sometimes it would be nice to not have to be sitting up propped on a pillow in order to watch what’s on TV. Makes it a little difficult to get comfortable, that’s for sure.
I’m amazed at how many homes in our neighborhood have wired and wireless security systems. I guess I just didn’t think of our neighborhood as being one of the less-safe neighborhoods in our town. It just seems like on every corner there is one of those signs warning passersby that attempting to enter their domain will result in lights and sirens. I don’t know when everyone go so scared.
It’s amazing how small the most interesting bits of technology have become. Computers are getting smaller and smaller, phones are getting smaller and smaller, cameras are getting smaller and smaller, and MP3 players are getting smaller and smaller. Even medical equipment, such as the finger pulse oximeter, are getting smaller and smaller! It’s very interesting to look back on.
I’ve got to be more dilligent in keeping my skin clear. I never really had any acne problems prior to getting into my mid-twenties, and now it seems like I almost always have a few pimples here and there, no matter what I do. They drive me crazy and I start trying to get rid of them in not-so-healthy ways. I’m going to end up needing an acne scar removal treatment if I’m not careful!
What is the deal with all of these quick trim fast cleanse products? Do they really work? It seems like there are so many of these sorts of products out in the market and I’ll admit, the thought of feeling more energized and healthier does seem appealing from time to time, but I don’t know…it sounds a little too good to be true.
It’s been a long road, losing my pregnancy weight. Of course, part of the reason why it’s taken so long is because I haven’t really done much to try! I wouldn’t even think about taking any sort of diet pill or ephedra diet pill, but I’ll admit there have been times that it was tempting!
I remember back when “getting hits” was SO important. Blogs/journals/domains were all the craze, and people couldn’t join webrings or submit a directory submission quickly enough. It took me a little longer than others to jump on the domain bandwagon, but I’ve never really looked back, even though my available time has changed so much in the past 11 years.
I still enjoy journaling, but I find it nearly impossible to journal anything with real “substance” anymore! Having a little one takes so much more of my free time then I knew I had to give (and understandably so!), and I willingly have given this time away to spend time with her. If I truly spent more time journaling here, I’m pretty sure it would be full of goofy baby things, and the daily “What Lily Did”s. And while that may appear cute for awhile, it wouldn’t be surprising if it started to get a little old!
So, I’m not getting rid of my domain, but it’s definitely been hibernating for awhile now until I can find motivation and time to really breathe new life into it!
I’m off to play with Lil!
I get nervous when thinking about anything having to do with purposely increasing/decreasing hormones (ie testosterone boosters). I don’t know. Maybe I’m too much of a wimp or a scaredy cat, but unless it’s absolutely necessary, I don’t like fiddling with that stuff. I’m moody enough as it is! Haha! Oh well…hopefully when I get menopausal this irrational fear won’t prevent me from getting a treatment that could really help!
Lily is in bed early tonight, and my husband is preoccupied with the Wii at the moment. Shadow is unsuccessfully attempting to convince Jonathan that it is his dinner time. The day’s craziness has given way to the blissful predictability that is the weekday evening.
Work was rather uneventful today. I find my lack of motivation to be rather dominant lately. I have been itching for a mommy-daughter day for some time now. Just the two of us, playing with toys, sharing an endless supply of snuggles, and not worrying about any of the current drama at work. I truly love every minute that my daughter and I share. They make everything else seem insignificant.
Never in a million years did I think I’d be scouring the market for the best acne treatment at 28 years old. I never struggled with acne as a child! I’m not sure what exactly happened the past few years but wow. Just when it clears up, another nasty little blemish appears. I thought that just washing my face regularly and using all natural makeup would do the trick, but it looks like I may need to up the ante a bit.
