Thoughts on a Thursday

Hi Lovelies! 

Here are some of the thoughts that have been running through my head lately.

~ I finally found Gone Girl at my local library and so far I'm loving it.

~ We are excited to be taking Angelina to see Planes! Every time she sees the preview for it, she jumps up and down and says that she can't wait to see the movie. 

~ Angelina enjoyed her time at the library today and picked out 5 books to read with us. 

~ I really need to work on my assignments for my class. I just really don't want to, but I know I need to. 

~ I really have to show my house some TLC. I have been neglecting it for a few days and it's really starting to bother me.

Thanks for listening!! What are some of the thoughts that are running through your head?

Unexpected Sighting

I had another post scheduled for today but I decided that I needed to vent about what happened last Friday. It started out pretty good. Paul, "A", and I went into town to just look around and do little bit of shopping. First, we went to the mall for some frozen yogurt and to walk around and to do some window shopping. Then, on a whim, we decided to go to Sam's to pick up a few things that we needed. While in Sam's we decided to look at the BBQ grills, mainly because "A" likes anything shiny that has buttons. Well, Paul decided that we needed a cart, so we went to get one, and it was at this time that we had our unexpected sighting.

Now, you are probably wandering who or what this unexpected sighting was. Well, I'll tell you who it was...... it was my PARENTS!

Now, let me remind you that I do not talk to my parents and I have maybe only seen them a handful of times in the last twenty years. And they have never met "A" until now. They have known about her, but they have never seen her. When they first came up to us, I didn't recognize them until they talked. They have changed so much. They both told us how cute "A" was and my stepmonster looked at "A" and told her that she was her "Oma", which made me cringe. I knew the only thing that I could do was stay as calm as I could and tried not to make a scene. I kept the conversation as quick and simple as I could. 

The sighting rattles Paul and I for most of the day. We have tried not to talk about it, but we are just hoping that they don't start harassing us again. If they do, I will not hesitate to file a protective order against them again. I'm protecting my daughter. 

I just hope that I handled the situation the right way. I just don't trust my parents around my daughter. 

Thanks for listening Lovelies!!

Midweek Randoms

Hi Lovelies! 

It's Wednesday and we all know what that means.....it's Hump Day ;) LOL!!!! So far the week has been pretty low key for us. We have been just chillin' and relaxin'. I have been mowing the front yard, and now I need to mow our jungle (aka, the backyard). 

It's been a slow week so here are some random things that we are wanting to do.

Midweek Randoms:

I just discovered Nutella a few days ago! OMG, it's soooooo yummy!!! I have been on the search for different ways t eat it. I just love the stuff.

We are beyond excited to see these two movies:

We have been very crafty this week.... we made a pumpkin patch out of construction paper and we also made a butterfly! Angelina had so much fun gluing.

I still have 3 loads of laundry to fold and put away.

Speaking of laundry, I am looking for ways to decorate it. Here's one of my favorites:

How has your week been?
