Recapness

Let's do a recap of the day just for craps and giggles (and because I can't sleep).

*I told Ryan today I saw a space rock fall from the sky last night. He said, "you mean a meat eater?". I thought about it for a minute, then replied, "a meteorite?". He said, "Yeah mom. Like Monsters vs. Aliens. Did you get big and strong like her too?". "No Ryan, it didn't hit me, I just saw it". Ryan replied with, "ah, too bad".

*Me and the boys took the Sequoia in to get fixed. While we were in the waiting room waiting (yup, you just read that right...we were in the waiting room...wait for it, wait for it...waiting) for the rental car to pick us up, I changed the station to Sesame Street. I didn't realize it was in Spanish until 10 minutes later. I don't even speak Spanish, how did I not catch that??

*When the rental company finally did pick us up and I transferred the car seats, Ethan was freaking out. Bawling his eyes out. I thought it was because he thought I was leaving him (putting him in a different car...usually that means he's being babysat by Grandma or something). But no, I got in the car and held his hand and he kept looking at our car we left to get fixed crying and saying "bye car, bye car". So sad. I didn't think two year old's got attatched to cars.

*I put up Christmas decorations tonight (well, they're not finished...they wipe me out...I'll finish tomorrow). I put up some snowmans and Ryan said, "Mom thanks for putting the decorations up, they're SO cute". I love 5 year olds! They still think Mom is pretty freaking awesome.

*I went to bed tonight and kept thinking of how I can organize the toys upstairs, and rearrange the furniture. Which toys should I move to the basement, where should I put the love sac? What part of the room could Ryan be most creative with his train track building? Then onto downstairs with the Christmas decorating...Did I move the furniture around so it is pleasing to the eye and emotions? (that seriously ran threw my head). I rearranged the furniture many times before I was only moderatly satisfied. Rooms stress me out. I also HATE unfinished projects so I am in bed thinking of all the decorating I still have to do tomorrow (I should finish now since I'm up, but Ryan would kill me...so I'm blogging instead). Maybe this is why I can not sleep at night?

*I bought two new Christmas CD's today. Amy Grant and Sarah Mclachlan. I'm way excided to listen to them. And I love my new Wasil candle. It smells like Wasil...go figure.

*Do you ever have those moments where you are talking to someone and they look at you funny. And you have to rub your head and say, "wow, it's one of those days, I don't even know what I'm talking about...but I keep trying, and keep talking anyway". Yeah, it's been like that all day. I even tap my forhead and say, "I know I was going to say something smart...but it just escaped me."

Okay, I'm done.
