Painting like a crazy woman

No pictures today. I haven't taken many lately. I go in streaks. Sorry, I know it is much more interesting to look at pictures than reading my mumbo jumbo.

I've been painting like crazy. I got the big ugly dresser almost done. Had to sand it, prime it, and it seems to need three coats of paint to look good. I just need one more coat on the top and one side and then it should be done. Need to pick out some knobs and it will be ready to roll. I also painted most of the girls bedroom. See below for the lovely shade (aloe vera). I think it looks good. Now I just have to do the hard part...the edges. It takes such a long time. Yuck. I think Bella will really like it, can't wait until she gets home (tomorrow!).

I haven't done a bodybugg update for awhile. I had a trainer's appointment on Wednesday and ouch do I hurt today. My official weight loss is at 22 lbs. I need to stop now per myself and my trainer. We're still going to work on tightening up places. I guess I need to start eating more. Just when it was getting easy. Oh well, I'm sure it won't be too hard to increase my intake.

Funny (kind of in a scary way) Emma story. We were driving home yesterday (in my newly aquired Murano...I'll take pictures soon) and Emma out of the blue said she wanted a tongue ring?!?!!!! Where that came from I'm not sure. I think one of her favorite girls at daycare has a tongue ring as she said "Jenna has a blue one, I want a pink one". Great. My three year old wants a tongue ring. Anyway, Emma is picking up a lot of crap from daycare, kind of scares me. She is a little sponge. Thinking I need to get myself a nanny. Too bad I can't afford one. Anyone know of any newly graduated high school chick without a tongue ring who wants to come live in Iowa mainly for the experience and a little pay =) ?

Well that is all for now. Have a good day.

Move to Wellman and I will watch your children for free; and I promise not to let Emma get a tongue ring, even if it is a pink one. :)

Sarah graduates this year, send her to college and I will make it happen, (the you send her part is tuition, room and board) :>)

I love to hear about other people having to eat more, (this is me being jealous and bitter) I wish that people needed fat donors, I would gladly donate several pounds.
