Happy Halloweeners!

I know, it's been a while, but I'm a busy girl. BF and I are doing okay...ish, but I'm thinking the honeymoon might be over, plus I've had the munchkin more then not (after the fiasco with the ex). I am getting that over extended feeling and the butterflies are starting to flutter less. GAH. Isn't dating suppose to be fun.

Maybe I'm just exhausted - physically and mentally. I could use a vacation that involves sand, blue water and fruity drinks with crushed ice. AND SLEEP. I miss sleep. If you happen to see my bed send it back my way!

But on a super happy note it's halloween and there are some good times ahead. I'm thinking the BF is going to a party that I may be less then interested in going to...so I might make it a girls weekend. Can't go wrong with the ladies! We'll tear up this town like the 20 year old (fine give or take a year) rock starts we are!

Woo weeee cork the champagne

And I'm only 2 twitter views away from 100. Check me out! :)

Ex=Ex Husand for a Reason

Alright soooo the labor day weekend fiasco. First of all, V's father (aka my ex) fell through on the baby sitting...he suddenly had an emergency work trip - first of all on a weekend and second of all on LABOR day weekend! He's an accountant! My sources (aka mutual friends being the wifes of a that is married to the ex) tell me that he found out about my romantic weekend with my new boyfriend and wasn't too keen on it. REALLY??? Can I stop to mention the ink has been dry for a full year, not to add the years of hell before once he found out about the yet to be born mini me (she's lucky she has my qualities and none of his) in the oven. You don't want to even get me started on that, but to give you a hint - he freaked out and found himself side hobby and by hobby I mean our ugly faked boobed neighbor.

Sooo back to labor day weekend and off of physco-needs-to-get-a-life-of-his-own-ex we decided to take munchkin with us, which is still a little sooner then I would've prefered for a family style vacation, but he was surprisingly okay with that...when faced with the option of all or nothing. So goodbye romance and laying around naked covered in Off. Hello mosquito bites, screaming toddler and a giant hole in the ground. All contributing to the grand finale of the weekend. Drum roll pleaaaase...



EMERGENCY ROOM! (forgive the modified sock, it makes the aircast much more comfy with flip flops - the only shoe I can wear with it). So 6 hours in emergency later with crying toddler in hand and only regrets that I only joked and never invested in the child lesh, we went home. Vacation cut short due to a severe sprain. Awesome.

BF has been helping some, but after that weekend I think we needed a vacation from eachother. Me time to recoup from physically and mentally (which is what I've been doing). Infact I feel much better as of now and my ankle's almost like new...ish. I think BF and I might slow it down a bit though, still got the goosebumps whenever I see him, just don't want to rush because I can definitely see what that ends up getting me! :)


As for the picture request...I realized we don't have a lot or any actually - unless they're ones I'm unwilling to post because we both look drunk and ugly! So did manage to snap this one on the dock without his knowledge...only problem is that iPhone sucks without direct light (but it does show off his hot body...woot woot!) I will do better. I promise!

Long time no talk

And it may be a little longer. There's been the good, the bad and the ugly (aka the ex). So for now it's to be continued...

Nooooo summer, don't leave me!

I feel like this might have been the quickest summer to date. Between the new BF, the family and V, I've been booked solid! And trust me, I love love love this new lifestyle change! (And let me also say what great timing to try and start up a blog...a lot of things to write about, but no time to write it. GAH!).

So I'm thinking after this weekend with (my still gorgeous, still mostly perfect) Mr Right that I'll be sloooowing down to fall speed. So with my baby spending the weekend with her dad (don't even get me started on him....ugh), I'm packing my suitcase. So bug spray - check, bathing suit - check, marshmellows - check, wine - check, my sexy sexxy boyfriend - check ;) and my giddy self - check.

And yep, I am guessing after this weekend I might love camping...infact, I think I'm starting to love it already.

Time, I am sososo sorry I took you for granted

I am thinking as being relatively new to this blogging world I should me better about keeping up with this, but man oh man, spare time is now a long lost luxury....Baby, BF, and now exercise (which, I want to mention I've actually gained weight ARGH! - I guess I shouldn't bribe myself to work out by thinking about how many more french fries I can eat later).

BF is doing great. I didn't think he could get hotter, but he does. Maybe it's the hot weather and his shirtlessness, but me likey, me likey a lot!

And we have big camping plans for labor day weekend, did I mention nature is not on the top of my favorites list? Well with that said, we are going camping (please refer to my mosquito blog if you need to be reminded of their attraction to me!). But I figure with my hot shirtless BF and V at her grandmas, I might just grow to love camping and all it has to offer. We shall see? :)

As for now - if anyone has the blueprints for a timemachine, so I can slow it down, please pass it my way!

If anyone sees my bed, tell it I miss it!

What a weekend! Drinks, dining, dancing, movies and cuddling (I loves me that one the best). But now I'm starting to realize...it's tough to have a BF in your 30's. What happened to that young, spunky girl that use to see 2 AM, without even wincing. I'm starting to crack more too. Anyone notice that? I got a message from my bed the other day. It misses me!

So that said, he brought up this thing he goes - what's it called....oh yeah, exercise. Maybe I shouldn't had pretended like I actually enjoy running. or biking. or anything that will make me sweat. But here I am now, digging out my sports bra and Nike Airs for our running date this week. Muscles ARE a good thing. It's about time I re-introduce my body to those things.(There is mention of joining a dodgeball team also, but due to elementary school scarring, I will most likely be passing).




Hello 2 miles. I hate you already!

:)

My Internal (and External) Struggle: I Heart Grannypanties.

So, I spent to entire weekend with my amazing BF (still as hot to me as day one and it just keeps getting better!). I have to say you don’t realize how un-hot your panties are until you start dating again. We’re still not moving too fast in the whole ‘see my in them’ way anyway, but it still doesn’t change that I am torn between those nice old comfy cotton briefs and the hot lacey ones that somehow manage to wedge up my butt within minutes up putting them on, but make you feel or so sexy until you try to pick the wedgie that is…so with that said thongs are just my idea of personal abuse. I also found out that Victorias Secret is that she likes to charge A LOT of buckaroonies for the most itty bitty piece of fabric known to man! UGH!

If only it wasn’t frowned upon in my 30’s to be like Veronica, who has it made. Dora, well lets just say there is nothing cooler then a pair of Dora undies to a 3 year old.

I am the queen of spades!

Just a shorty to left you all know how I kicked butt at cards last weekend against(well actually dice, but the title wouldn't work so well) ..should I say it? MY NEW BOYFRIEND. I guess I can let is slide that he stinks at it:) I am the undefeatable Queen, so he had no hope! He claims he let me win....GAH! Liar.



(me beating him, good poker face - right!)

She's a dancin machiiiiiiine...(this is the only MJ reference)

Wowza, I’ve been busy. Between hottie potattie and the munchkin, I’ve been spinning in circles…and floating on a cloud….

Ok, so let me just start out by saying that there were no police involved what so ever! LOL. Soooo Saturday, this beautiful specimen of a man picked me up – with flowers , getting there 10 minutes early and looking like he should have a burst of light following him to extenuate his hotness – ooof. Second plus is that he didn’t seem to mind that I was running about 20 minutes behind…(I don’t think the I’ve explained my habitual tardiness, no matter what the plan is). It takes times to pretty myself up ya know!

(Actual Flowers :))

Conversations started on what we’ve been up to, the kids, the ex’s (yack)….AND martini no. one goes down ohhh so smoothly….someone we were onto my love of the running man and his skills when it comes to breakdancing…AND martini no.’s two and three really hits the spot (have I cursed those martini's yet, because I mean to)….so there we are – me showing off my too famous robot, and my date, well let's just say cabbage patch.



Anywho, the crazy night ended with a very buzzed, very long, very lovely kiss. I was a good girl and he was a gentleman (and I had almost given up hope!). I am still grinning, can't stop. There will be more to come…if I am not too busy drooling over what is beautiful man perfection, and trying to catch that little 3 year maniac – aka mini me!

Fireworks Were Exploding, and Not Just in the Sky!

Okay, so I may have had the most fabulous 4th ever....re-ran into an old BF..that I use to think was gonna be the love of my life..at a friends party (btw I ended up going to my friends party with the yummy below ground pool, V and I were like prunes by then end of the day)...so, back to Robbie the ex-BF, at the time that he was my stud our dating maturity was around the same time span where my 2 priorities were bombfire parties and the material girl, because DUH, she did rule the world :)...LOL, RIGHT!



Well we got to talking and it looks like there is some major catching up to do... *wink wink* *nudge nudge*. He too is divorced with 2 little ones, 5 and 9. And looky lil ole me, single mom with lil V, what a lovely coincidence I must say! And there is no denying it, there is a spark somewhere here. Definitely a good sign. Did I mention how H-O-T he is. OOOohhhh, mmmmyyyyy.

Ohhhhh, and did I mention we're going on a date this weekend - which happens to be V's daddy's weekend, couldn't work out any better. (and a side note to self, stop grinning - people around me are gonna think I'm nutty).

Is it too late to start ring shopping? JUST KIDDING! :P

Awww, Screw the Strawberries. It's Picnic Time

So the closer we get to the 4th the more excited I get about the grilled foods. As many hotdogs, cheeseburgers and mayonaise based salads I can stomach. I consider this time of the year to be much much worse then and winter holiday for my flabby to muscle ratio.

So, V and I have quite a few invites we're looking at and choosing the party must be done carefully. Who has the pool? V loves swimming (well floating in a dragon shaped tube, but same difference) and so does her momma (floating in a fat shaped device, called her body). And where are the coolest fireworks, from a distance (V will grow to love them I'm sure, last year - not her favorite).

And on another note has anyone ever made cheeseburger pie? I found a recipie and am on the fence. It looks like it could be dangerously delicious! (I know V's gonna gobble it up!)

I must taste like sugar

Has anyone notice an ungodly amount of mosquitos buzzing around lately? I think there is a mosquito factory next door, if I didn't know better myself. My goodness gracious. Fortunately Veronica is the master bug killer with ninja like reflexes so on our trip to the (bug ridden) park this weekend she managed to hold her own, even with 3 cans of skin so soft. I thinking might be able to rent her out if sge keeps up these bug killing skills. LOL :)


Well gotta go and plather myself in benedryl. Gah!!!!!

Baby Gymnastic's Gone WWF

Ok..... Let me just start by saying, kiddie gymnastics - hilari-freakin-lous. Last night I took V to her gymnastics class. She has been going for over a year now and she love, love, loves it!
So to the best part of yesterday's adventure...my baby girl has what I might consider her first boyfriend, a lil 3-1/2 year old (yes, she likes older men, just like her mommie) tyke named Sebastian. And yesterday Sebastian expressed his love by pushing V down during playtime and V returned the love with a tiny open handed slap right on his noggin. Yep, that's my girl! We were quick to help dry up the tears, while was struggling keeping the laughter on the inside. Baby WWF in the house - or miniture gymnasium, so to speak!

One thing for sure - maybe Sebastian should do a couple more push-ups if he's gonna date by lil girl!

Work, Women, and Strawberries

Ok so I think I am getting the hang of this thing. I use to write all the time and never had a place for it so now I do ! I am a little timid of puttin it all out there so to speak but after a few spritzers with the girls over the weekend I am sayin what the heck!

If you havent noticed I work for a non-profit and tho I love it , it can be very frustrating. Well let me say that the can has hit the fan! I dont understand why people make promises and then never fullfill them? I also dont understand why my boss seems to think we are the only charity that has this happen.

Oh and while I am at it ... to the Woman at the mixer last week, who stole Mr. Right Now away from me on the dance floor...you can eat it !

I did take Veronica out this weekend to a little place about 45 minutes outside the city and we finally got to pick some berries. It was well worth the drive and the traffic headaches to get out there and be with some "real" people ! I gotta tell ya .. this single stuff has its perks...like making my schedule up as I go ... but sometimes.. it would be nice to have someone else to share these moments with....baby's Daddy(here on in BD) is a weekend warroir and misses more dates than I care to mention

Summer, Sun and FRESH VEGGIES

Oh my, could it be? That time of the year where I can just pick and chomp. Family trips with the kiddies, loaded up on sunscreen to pick some of my favorites - strawberries. Mmmmmm.

I couldn't be more happy that this weather is here and season for picking has begun!

And a big hello to the blog world!
