1. I’m bored. There’s lots I could be doing. But I’m not. I’m bored of them.
2. Yesterday was not a boring day. It was my 9 year wedding anniversary. It was a fun day. Maybe that’s why I’m so bored today. Its so hard to transition back to reality after a day spent completely in fun. Really though, I can’t believe its been 9 years. Nine years since my parents and I missed the exit to Manti and ended up in Price, UT instead – a whole hour and some odd minutes off course. Nine years. Wow. We are not old enough, not really. Anniversaries are funny things. Some are spent so gallantly. Extravagant trips, gifts or maybe a combination of the two. My husband has a knack for making me feel spoiled. Yesterday I spoiled him a little. I took him to an Apple store and he signed another contract to become the proud owner of an i4. I’m jealous but not. Our anniversary was so low key. We didn’t go anywhere. We didn’t spend more than $30 on dinner and we went to a dollar theater to see Russell Crowe in Robin Hood. But it was fantastic. It was a reminder of the days when we focused on each other. When we were each other’s world. I know we still are but we have three kids that inhabit that world now and take the focus off each other. We do our best to balance things but our time is still theirs. It doesn’t take much to renew my love for my hubs.
3. I just painted my toe nails red. I love red toe nails. Mine are sloppy. There’s nail polish all over. But I feel good. There’s something about painted toe nails that makes me feel good. Makes me feel like I’m beautiful, even though I haven’t even showered yet…hmmm.
4. Ethan and Luke have been playing video games for too long. I know I should turn it off. They love it so much though. And its summer. They played outside all morning.
5. I’ve always known the next step I would take in my life. I’ve always felt I had a clear path. Right now I don’t and its kind of driving me crazy. There is no obvious step and I’m wondering what to do with myself. Some people think I should have another child, thats the next step. I’m definitely not clear on that. I know some of you are thinking, just enjoy where you’re at. I’m trying. But I need something too. Can you tell me what it is?
6. Next Wednesday Luke turns 5. I’m so unorganized. I have no clue what I’m doing for it. Ugh.
7. I applied to get Ethan and Luke into Davis Magnet School today. Its a long waiting list so we’ll see what happens. Might not be until next year. I’m cool with that.
8. I made a cheesecake for yesterday and I didn’t even finish my piece. I think I left something out. Its completely not me to leave dessert on my plate. Its been sitting in the fridge all day and I haven’t heard it call out to me at all. Weird.
9. I want a Brazilian blowout. I want. I want. I want.
