Feelin' Good

Just found out that my one of my favorite authors are gonna be here in town next month. Mr. Nicholas Sparks will be here in October and I am stoked! The first book I read by him that got me hooked to his books was At First Sight so I'm gonna find it and have him sign that one. If I can go, that is. Something could pop up between now and then. I'm working on reading Dear John and the last one I read was The Last Song and was excited about the movie, until I saw who was the leading role. I still haven't gone to see that movie only because she's in it. Its petty, I know. But from what I hear, she ruins that movie anyway and I'd rather not see her butcher a good book. I like to read the books before I see the movie. I haven't seen Dear John yet. I didn't even know when I started reading his works that he was the genius behind The Notebook and a couple more of my favorite movies.

Taking a couple days off next week cuz I won't have a car. Its gonna be at hubby's parents house cuz that's where they are gonna work on it and its gonna take a few days. Taking some vacation days is cheaper than renting a car to go to work. I will get to sleep in a bit, then walk Lilly to school, come home and either nap, clean or just do whatever. I was excited yesterday about being able to have Taco Bell for lunch one day... and then I remembered that I will have no way to get there. Its too far to walk, so I guess today I will mosey on down to the mall and get me some Taco Bell. I love tacos. I just don't really trust the mall food too much. Seems like a plan to me, though. The baby wants what the baby wants and today, he wants tacos..... I'm so glad he doesn't hate them. I think I would have to cry if I couldn't have my tacos.

Finally got my Walmart credit card paid off this morning!!! One goal down, a million to go.

Lilly finally got to feel her baby brother kick. She asked, "Is that his foot or his butt?" I told her I didn't know and she said that it better not have been his butt. LOL!! I told her he will kick more often and we will be able to feel it better once my tummy starts getting bigger. I can only tell a slight difference in my size. I have only gained like 6 pounds all together, but my tummy has grown. The pants I bought to be big on me so I can grow into them...well...I'm almost grown into them. Not quite yet, but almost. I think my tummy's grown an inch or so. I had a 2 inch gap in these pants, I had to hook them on the belt loop instead of the hooks (they are dress pants) and now I don't have to. They are still a bit big. Probably in the next couple of weeks I will be into my maternity pants.

I made a horrible dinner last night. I was so excited about it all day yesterday, then I get home and it sucked. Well..it wasn't too bad, but it wasn't my best and it really wasn't worth keeping the leftovers. So, I told hubby that whenever I make a bad dinner, he gets to cook the next day...... he asks me what I want him to order. If its that easy to get some take out, maybe I should cook bad more often. ;-)

I woke up in such an excellent mood. I had a horrible dream, but woke up smiling and cheerful. Its only 9:30, lets hope this mood lasts the rest of the day.
