1. Living 5 minutes from EVERYTHING!!!
Thank the Lord on high that finally I am back where there are multiple grocery stores, shopping areas, park, libraries and restaurants within a 5-10 minute drive of my house! For the past 2 ½ years I have done the “Green Acres” thing, i.e. living in Chelsea which is a good 30 minutes from the major hub of Hoover, Vestavia Hills, Homewood, ect. and people I couldn’t do it. And yes 30 minutes is a long time when you have a less than enthusiastic 1-year-old in the back crying about her car seat confinement. Dah-ling I love you but give me Park Avenue
2. Jimmy Dean Frozen Chicken Biscuits
Since my daughter has recently become major of I-Will-Eat-Next-To-Nothingville, these little frozen miracles have saved me from people in the grocery store calling DHR because it appears I am starving my child. I don’t know if these little biscuits are coated with LSD and frankly I don’t care. She will eat them without fuss or bribery of any kind so I buy them in bulk. She has had one every morning for the last 4 weeks, and occasionally for lunch and dinner. You are welcome Mr. Dean.
3. Leg Hugs
Since Adlay isn’t wasting her time with things like eating, she has lots of extra time on her hands and has decided the best use of that time would be to hug…..everyone and everything. Her new fav is to walk up behind you when you are doing some mundane task like laundry and wrap her little arms around your leg and squeeze. It will literally melt your heart. It’s as if she somehow psychically knows when you need a hug and will deliver several just for good measure.
4. Sewing
If you have seen my Facebook statuses recently you might know I have taken up sewing on a very basic level. I am getting better and have made several dresses and little capri pants for Adlay. What I love about it is the instant gratification. Within minutes pieces of random fabrics become a wearable, and quite cute I might add, outfit. In my daily world of repetitive “No”, “Don't touch that”, “Leave the dog alone” with minuscule signs of comprehension and progress from my little learner, an instant reward of something finished is a nice repose.
5. The McDonald’s Filet of Fish Commercial
So a few weeks ago, before the Tivo was set up we had to watch TV live *GASP*. It was during this time I saw a commercial that I laughed at hysterically for no discernable reason. It is the new Mikey D’s commercial. It is stupid and random and I can’t get enough of it. I freakin’ love it. Don’t judge me……see for yourself.
Peace out.
D
