horray! : )
I am going to be a long term substitute teacher mid-Oct through Jan!
The greatest thing about this particular position, is that I will be working with my kindergartners! (meaning the same children or kindergartners I student taught with...who are now 2nd graders!)
I am very excited about this opportunity.
yay! yay! yay!
Now I am off to the Bistro for a fancy lunch with H2.

Pandora, Pedicures, and a Painkiller
whew!! What a weekend! My house was brimming with people!
Saturday, while the boys golfed, my sister-in-law Emily, cousin-in-law Theresa, almost-fake-cousin-in-law Jaci, and I ventured out for some girly fun. Oh and did we have fun!
After a delicious lunch at Olive Garden the four of us headed to a local jewelry store to shop for Pandora beads and bracelets. I have so enjoyed my Pandora bracelet. It is exciting and surprising to receive new beads and then to re-arrange the them on the bracelet. : ) It just gives me a thrill!
On Friday Theresa and her sister Tillie gave/sent me two new Pandora beads. I was so surprised and touched. It also made me feel very loved...which I appreciated!
Anywho, the new beads inspired me to check out MORE Pandora products. I also wanted to spread the love and help Jaci start a bracelet. So Emily, Theresa, Jaci, and I went to the jewelry store.
I love the jewelry store. They are always so nice and charming. The sales people normally turn up the charm because I am a total sucker and cash cow! ha ha I enjoy having my rings cleaned, admiring sparkly jewelry, trying on sparkly jewelry, and just playing. Saturday I did all of the above! It was heaven.
I bought two new beads (pictures to come later), Theresa bought a bead, and Jaci started a bracelet. So much fun!
After spending a bit too much money, the girls and I headed to a hole in the wall nail salon to get our toes done. mmm, foot rubs and shiny new nail polish. This pedicure thing is actually a new tradition. 2 weeks ago, the boys were golfing so I called Jaci and Emily and asked if they wanted to meet me for a pedicure. (Sorry Theresa!) We had a great time. When it was all over I still felt like I could be more relaxed.....so we went out for a drink.
Saturday we continued the tradition. Following our pedicures we headed to Cheddars for a drink. My favorite drink at Cheddars is a "Painkiller" (limit 2 per customer...SERIOUSLY). I am a total lightweight. You draw your own conclusions about what happened next. ; )
It was such a great great day.
So here is my shout out to Theresa, Emily, and Jaci! Love you guys!

love of my life 2.0
I am in loove.

This man just makes me swoon.
He makes my life easier, which puts a smile on my face. He is handy. He is always ready to tackle any task I give him, quickly and efficiently. He is gentle.
Who is this wonderful man?
Well it's not my husband!!
Sorry D!
I am in love with Mr. Clean Magic Erasers
As you know, I am preparing for company this weekend. Which means it's time for me clean my bathtubs and showers. A task I do not particularly enjoy....
The first shower/tub I doused with 409, gagged, wheezed, scrubbed, and eventually, 25 minutes later, made sparkle.
The second shower/tub I donned cleaning gloves, held my nose, and prepared to gag...but magically (he he) none of that happened!! I used my darling Mr. Clean Magic Eraser in the second shower/tub. I cleaned the whole thing in 5 minutes. Honestly!! I will show you pictures in a bit. It sparkles.
Oh Mr. Clean! I love you!
xoxo,

awkward
An *honest to god* REAL conversation:
Man: My wife and I went to a concert last week
D: .....Oh yeah? How was it? What kind of crowd does that attract?
Man: There were a lot of buff guys without their shirts on.
D: .........
Man: My wife and her friend were checkin' them out.
D: .........
Man: My friend said "What's up with that?" I told him, "I don't care she can check them out....they can get her going now and I get to finish her off later"
D: ..........................................
H: ........well that's a positive way to look at it.......?
D: ..... ? .....
so so so awkward.

a baby girl for K
I am so happy for my friends K and P.
Yesterday K had her 'big' sonogram and discovered that she is expecting a healthy baby girl! yay!
Being the friend I am, I promptly went out and bought a darling outfit with matching socks. : )
K, I know you are reading....I couldn't help myself, it was too cute, and I can't help myself now...I'm posting a picture on the blog before I even give it to you! Forgive me! check this out!
I love it!

preparing for 9 ppl in 900 sq. ft
oh boy!
Today is my last day in Indianapolis. I plan to eat breakfast soon, tidy up the room (for housekeeping of course!), hang out at a local outdoor mall, make a few returns, grab lunch...maybe with d?, read, nap, and make a big fat list of things I need to do when I get home tomorrow.
On Friday my brother and sister-in-law, J my almost-fake-cousin-in-law and her boyfriend N (who is D's cousin) and 3 of N's siblings are headed my way.
I love these people. I am so looking forward to having them in my home. truly. However, I need to prepare.
First, where will everyone sleep? Well...D and I will sleep in our bed!! for the first time in 2 + weeks, um...my brother and sister-in-law can sleep in the guest room...but that might not work because it's only a full bed and my brother-in-law is T A L L..., 2 people can sleep on the couch, 2 people can sleep on the air mattress, and I have 2 sleeping bags. ha ha ha
OR all the girls can sleep in beds (meaning D gets kicked out of his bed! sorry dear!) and all the boys can have a slumber party in the living room. oh my! That could be memorable. (I am literally laughing out loud thinking about it)
Food: What am I going to feed all these people? Pizza on Friday night, breakfast casserole on Saturday morning, out for lunch, and we'll grill out on Saturday night (there is no way that my brother-in-law is reading this...but I'm going to buy Cheddarwurst's just for you!!). I'll also be purchasing snacks. lots of snacks.
oh yeah...beer. Knowing this crowd we'll be needing lots of beer.
Entertainment: I need to go buy some playing cards. D family plays pitch like it's going out of style. Prior to dating and marrying D I had never heard of pitch. Now I'm a pitch player, however I only own bright pink playing cards. I cannot envision grown men playing pitch with bright pink playing cards....so I'll be purchasing some. : )
That's about all my brain can handle right now. Is there anything I forgot?
