I Am Moving

To a new apartment that is on a first story, has a much bigger kitchen, bigger second bedroom, and nearly 30 sq feet of attached storage! Did I mention it is also significantly less expensive than my current unit? Yay! The bummer...I'll have a smaller dining room and more awkward living room, but nothing too bad. I can hardly wait for Nov. 7th to come!


It's in the same complex I currently live in but in a location I like a little more! I love moving, but I'm hoping this will be the last one for a while now.

Failed Already

As you can see, I have already failed at getting a blog post written every day this week.. I wish a had a valid excuse as to why, but really, I don't (unless, "it was really rainy" counts :)

Lots of you have told me you keep second private blogs for all the things you'd like to blog about but not share with the entire world. Marcus has suggested I do this for a long time. I just have one question to those of you who keep these super-secret blogs, though.. Do you invite anyone to read them, or just keep them entirely to yourself like a little locked up middle school journal? And if you do invite readers, have you ever regretted it?

Let's Just Be Honest...

We're HUGE Donny Osmond fans at this house (teehee) and so have been making sure to catch every episode of this seasons Dancing With the Stars.

Well, during last weeks result show some marching band preformed and little Connor thought it was simply the best thing his young eyes had ever witnessed. He was OBSESSED with watching it on our DVR until his daddy accidentally deleted it a few days ago.

Connor was a bit devastated when he found out it was gone, but has since recovered by imagining himself as Tom Burgeron (the DWTS host) announcing the band. Each time he reenacts the scene he gets more and more and more dramatic. Not so funny to read about, I'm sure, but HILARIOUS to see done in person. Especially when he wiggles his tiny hips, raises his little arm, and enthusiastically yells into his echoing microphone (in a very Oprah-ish sort of way), "Ladies and Gentleman, welcome back...and give a big round of applause for the *mumble mumble mumble* MARCHING BAND!"

I keep hoping I can get it on video, but I've had no such luck quite yet. We'll see.

I Can't Write a Blog Post For the Life of Me!

Seriously, if I actually published all the posts I write and then delete, my blog would be filled to the brim...

BUT

It seems every time I'm finishing one up I delete it because I think it's boring, or whiny, too deep, or will maybe even be taken the wrong way. I have written four such posts TODAY and have nothing but this rant to show for it.

I want to be a better blogger but am totally in a funk. I'm challenging myself to post daily for the remainder of this week...and if anything I write happens to be boring, or whiny, too deep, or even offensive...forgive me. I don't mean it to be :)
