http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com Somewhat coherent babblings of a stay at home momma Mon, 19 Jan 2009 20:39:04 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Just thought I’d pop onto the old blog today.  I didn’t realize that I hadn’t posted since OCTOBER!  Yeah, I have the typical excuses, holidays, school, family stuff, blah blah blah.  They’re all true, but basically, I’m just lazy.  And tired.  And today has been an extremely craptacular specimen of ... http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com/2009/01/19/me-slacker-never/ It’s been a while again.  Too much stuff going on, most days I feel like I’m losing my mind.  Here’s what’s been happening in our household. I almost hate to say it for the fear of jinxing myself, but Sebastian is doing really well in school so far.  Granted, this is ... http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com/2008/10/07/whats-up/ On Saturday, Seb and I went over to my parent’s house because it was Octoberfest (in the middle of September?) in the little town where I grew up and there were to be fireworks that evening.  It was…interesting.  My dad ended up walking back home with my nephew Lucas because ... http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com/2008/09/22/bubba-on-why-grandma-walks-so-slow/ Today is picture day at Seb’s school.  So last night when we were picking out clothes for today, I told him I thought he should wear his red polo shirt because he looks so handsome in it.  I may have also made a few more handsome comments, because he just ... http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com/2008/09/19/classic-sebastian/ I finished the blanket I was making for Lucas the other night.  I don’t even remember how many times I had to rip out stiches and start over.  It was the first time crocheting from a grid pattern.  I have to say, I much prefer having all the directions spelled ... http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com/2008/09/04/finished/ Sebastian had a good first day of school.  He said he even made a new friend.  About 2/3 of the kids in his class are kids he was with in either 1st or 2nd grade or that he knew from Prime Time, so that is nice for him.  He was ... http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com/2008/09/04/seb-school-and-a-shearing/ So, today Sebastian started the third grade.  Please.  Please, please, please let this year go well.  I really don’t think we as a family can take another year like last year.  I was talking with the hubby last night and told him that if the problems start up again this ... http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com/2008/09/03/are-you-there-god-its-me-erin/ I dropped Bub off at my parent’s house yesterday.  It is so weird to not have him here.  Who would’ve thunk I’d actually miss the endless prattle about some detail about a dinosaur’s anatomy and what it can do, or the sound of bionocles engaged in battle or endless questions ... http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com/2008/08/21/its-quiet-too-quiet/ For fear that I might jinx things and it won’t happen.  My mom wants to take Sebastian for a few days before the summer is over.  I’m supposed to drop him off on Wednesday (and get my hair done, yay!  I’m whacking it off again.) and pick him up on ... http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com/2008/08/18/im-almost-afraid-to-type-this-out/ I realize that’s a weird thing to say about your own kid, but hell, it’s the truth.  We spent the day at Cedar Point yesterday.  All Seb could talk about was that he was going to ride the Maverick.  Had to do it right away, first thing.  I don’t know ... http://outofmymind78.blogsome.com/2008/08/12/my-boy-has-balls/
