I guess a pound isn't so bad but it still sucks. I think I'm actually going to have to exercise to start really losing weight.............more than just the bellydancing. Now that the roads are clear, I'm starting to walk Ginger more. We don't go on the trails but a nice stroll through the town isn't bad.
I tried to fax my college application at work yesterday but nobody would leave me alone!! I'm taking it to a place here in town that'll do it. I can mail it I suppose but then I'd have to send a cheque....
The kids are officially on March Break and everyone wants playdates and activites planned....HELLO, I work!!
I'm off both Monday and Friday but I've got running around to do on one of those days. Yesterday, the dishwasher went KAPUT as did my electric kettle and new crockpot(used 3x). We went out last night to look for a new dishwasher but it has to be a Kenmore--DH wants all appliances to be the same brand, something about people liking that when you sell the house. More on that front. Anyway, DD is talking to her friend on the phone and asked if she could go to her house to play. I told her we were going out to buy a dishwasher. Here's the response I get....
Can't you do that tomorrow so I can go to J's house? WTF???
I informed the 7year old going on 16 that her social life didn't dictate what we(DH and I) do, we don't work around her schedule!! Holy crap!
Back to the same appliances for resale value......I ask DH if he's thinking we should sell the house, totally mortified because I really like where we are. He's like, " no, not right now but at some point we may have to consider it." I'm thinking most appliances last 10 years, is he thinking of moving in that time frame? He assures me it's not a consideration, he's done a ton of work on the house and it still needs stuff done. We have room to add on if we need to. Our house is a raised bungalow on a 141x161 ft lot on a dead-end street with 6 houses on it. We're the last house on the street and we back on to conservation land AND part of the Credit River!! It's very peaceful in our yard especially in the summer at about 7 am sitting on the deck, sipping coffee and just listening to the river and the birds. Who wouldn't love that??!!

HA! your life must revolve around the child's schedule - classic!
I would die if any appliance decided to quit on me, especially something so important like a dishwasher or my slowcooker *shudder*.
Hope you don't go too crazy with the march break madness :)
Oh to be a kid again......
Hey, girl!! Sorry bout being up a lb.. Damn that TOM!!! At least you know that's all it is, and you can rest easy knowing that you'll probably pull off a loss next week! :-)
Wtg, on the educational assistant program! That's awesome! I have a friend who took that, and she's really happy with it..
Ick, sorry to hear about the dishwasher!! That totally sucks.. And the crockpot.. I hope the store you got it at will give you a replacement..
Sounds like you have a beautiful home! Nature is so important to me, I'd want my home to be like yours, to have that touch of being out of town..
