I've got a case of the spring fever pretty bad today. I've been on a serious roll with work; accomplished quite a bit and saved the company all sorts of money, but my mind is on the sunshine staring at me from across the room. It's saying, "come on out, enjoy the my beaming beauty and go shopping for a few hours, just by yourself". I would love to do that today (seriously, nothing makes me happier than shopping) but per my tax hell yesterday, I don't think that's looking very good. Let's just say, I cried for a fourth year straight.
So, bad me hasn't gone to the gym all week and I'm starting to loathe myself which means I better go tonight. I figure what better way to get exercise because I can watch all my NBC Thursday night shows in peace while I'm working on my tush. I love the Office, although it's been kind of weird lately. And, although I've taken time off from watching ER, I have to see the finale. I want to have it on so that if my Mom's around she can catch it, too. She loved that show and started watching the reruns again after she retired from work. I'll catch it tonight in her honor.
Ugh, the housewives were on fire this week! Let's call Kelly cray-cray (short for crazy x 2). I think there was some drug usage going on before her altercation with Bethanney. It was like the meeting of the bug eyed twins, with one of them in full effect. That batshit cray-cray made no sense when she was talking and when she shot out the "too bad" when B said she'd been waiting 30 minutes, it would've taken everything I had not to slap her face. Talk about childish. And then she's with this hot guy acting like a total idiot with those pink shoes??? wow.
I really like Jill and I think her husband's sweet. He totally loves her and takes care of her. I also love Luanne and I think she always looks great clothes, hair and shoe-wise. Although she can be kind of an ass about the whole manners thing, I think she does have the most class out of the bunch. I also want my hair cut like hers and I think I'm going to do it on my next appointment.
You know what I think, a Real Housewives of Sonoma...we would totally kick ass and be the most popular. Although, none of my friends or I are rich, so I guess that wouldn't work.
Anyhoo...back to work, big sigh.

tax hell and fool's day
I'm not a big fan of April Fool's Day, never have been. Never ever had the desire to trick anyone and never liked getting tricked. However, now that we have a 4 & 6 year old, I have to play the game and act as if I love it with all my heart. The girls have been talking about it all week, planning their attack on their Daddy. Last night I sat in their room listening to them whisper-giggle idea after idea on what we should do:
"put crackers in his bed!" I don't think he'd like that
"put his belt in the shower?" again, I don't think so
"switch the cereals around?" great, did it with success this morning
"put sugar on the baseball bat?" what the?
"ok, how about hiding the baseball bat and balls in your closet?" sounded great as they play bb outside each evening so this was a definite yes
"put the shampoo in the conditioner bottle?" I vetoed
"hide his keys!"
"tell him it's Friday!"
"put his socks in his shoes...you, know at the top part so he can't get his feet in, heeheeheehee"...girls after my own evil heart, definitely another yes
This went on until I had to stop it. They're so cute and so excited for the second part of their plan this afternoon. I've been instructed to pick them up early so they have time to execute. We tried to think of some things last night and all we came up with is food coloring in the milk, turn their chairs upside down and put their cereal on a plate with a fork. They thought that was the cat's meow. Success!
It's dreaded tax doing time at our house and I'm so not looking forward to it. Every year we wait until the last minute and every year for the past four we've had to pay money. It's really our least favorite thing in the world, especially since our tax lady is semi-retired and it takes about 3 painful hours to complete.
Since we purchased a home this past year, I'm hoping we bring it home good this year. Lots to pay off and do around the house, so it would be nice. Things have been tough for the past few months so we need a ray of sunshine into our lives. Can I get an amen!
