Thursday's Things

I never know what to write about on Thursdays b/c it's after two nights of tutoring and I'm spent, so here is a little ditty I just made up:

Food
  • I have a bunch of wonton wrapper left over from Christmas.
  • I had taco meat from Monday night.
  • I put the taco meat in the wonton wrapper with some cheese.
  • I baked it for 7 minutes at 350 degrees.
  • I burned the shit out of my mouth trying to see if it was delicious.
  • It was.
  • I believe a lot of leftovers could be put into a wonton wrapper and made delicious.
  • You should try it.
Clothes
  • It's been like living in Antarctica here this week.
  • I love my sweaters.
  • I am very lucky to have warm clothes.
  • My heart broke last night as I lay in bed thinking of people who had to sleep outside last night.
Hailey
  • She spent part of yesterday morning pushing her stroller around.
  • I had to get a pan out of the cabinet to make breakfast.
  • She literally runs into me with the stroller.
  • "Hailey, can you wait a minute?  I'm trying to get something out of here."
  • "Well, your big old butt is in the WAY!"
  • What the what?
  • When I tried to explain that saying something like that was rude, she responded with, "well, you DO have a big old butt."
  • And I thought she'd never talk...
Matt
  • Was awake the other night when Husband went to check on him at 10:20.
  • He said the ambulance scared him (went down our street with lights, no siren).
  • We have no idea what time he actually went to sleep.
  • This isn't good as this kid needs his sleep!
  • He told Hailey she could wash her hands first the other night because "you're my sister and I love you and you're da bomb."
  • He's so fly.
House
  • Tree is down.
  • Toys are somewhat reorganized.
  • Floors are dirty.
  • Outside decorations are still up.
  • Our neighbors are probably ready to kill us.
  • The plan is to take them down this weekend, but I really don't wanna (whine).
  • The heat has been on nearly non-stop.
Exercise
  • Strength yoga yesterday...class was crowded.
  • Spin today...class will be ridiculously crowded...need to get there early to get my favorite bike between two fans that keep me from literally keeling over on the bike.
  • I hate the gym in January...everyone is so motivated and annoying.
  • They'll be gone by March.
  • That's not very encouraging, is it?  Oh well...I've seen it happen for years.
 What's up with you guys?

I've had that thought occur to me at random a few times recently...being thankful for a warm house, knowing we are so fortunate. A warm house, fresh food, being able to take the girls to the pediatrician without a second thought...it's simple to us, but I know not everyone enjoys these "luxuries".

I love Matt calling his sister "da bomb"! That kid is awesome.

And I have some filo dough cups in the freezer I keep meaning to try...maybe this weekend...I think it will be a similar deal. Sorry you burned your mouth, though. I am famous for doing that with cookies...HA!

For some reason, it's in the 40s and going to be near 50 today in Chicago. I don't get it. I took all our Christmas stuff down the day after Christmas. John has to take the outside stuff down this weekend because I will not allow it to be outside any longer.

I started the pic a day challenge. I am cheating on the 2nd though because I have tons of pics of PJ and Mags as "something I adore" so I'm just going to use that. I'm going to post the whole prior week's pics on Mondays on my blog.

I love this!! I may do something like this on my blog because I need to get something up...I'm lagging so far in 2012.

I love that Matt tells Hailey she's "da bomb". He's the ultimate cool guy!

Bella told me I had a big butt too and then to make matters worse, she looked horrified as she asked me, "Since your butt is big, does that mean I'll have a big butt too when I'm YOUR age?"

What you said about the gym cracked me up. It's so true, though, isn't it? All the newbies will be gone by March and you'll be able to enjoy the gym again!

If it's going to be this cold, it should snow (and snow and snow).
Tot regularly tells me that my bottom is big. Lovely.

I also was very, very sad thinking of the people who had to sleep outside the last two nights---and felt lucky that I had warm clothes, a down comforter, and heat. And then I felt guilty for feeling lucky. Is that weird?

I DREAD dealing with the January Joiner crowd at the gym. No, that is not encouraging, and no I don't feel guilty about that. Get off my treadmill, people.

I wonder where she not only got big butt, but old too. Silly kids come up with all kinds of things.

Matt is the best brother.

hahahaha. we were just talking at the gym this morning about the resolutioners. i want everyone to be healthy, you know, but don't mess up my routine, take my equipment, or make me have to wait for a shower!

I made those sausage stars in wonton wrappers (from Pinterest!) and they were delicious!! Definitely going in rotation in our house.

I love that he said "da bomb" that is awesome.

Throwing stuff together like that totally sounds simple and good to me, too!

"da bomb!" Love it!

I love sweaters and sweatshirts, but its so hard to dress for work - some days its like 55 in my classroom and 75 the next day (old boilers). So its easier to dress lighter and keep a cardigan at my desk if I need it.
