Saturday Morning Bright and Early
Well, it’s the weekend and my hunny has went into to work for a few hours and I got up earlier than usual. Today I have quite a few things I want to get done. I’m sitting in my comfy place in the living room sipping on coffee (and enjoying it since I have no more creamer) and don’t feel like going out and picking any up right now.
My List
1- Finish my outline of my Parenting Article.
2- Find an expert and ask them a few questions.
3- Project hunt yet again.
4- Finish Jenna Glatzer’s book.
5- Read thru a few magazines and pick up a few parenting magazines at the store.
And thats about it I think other than maybe go shopping to pick up a few needed things. I guess I will just sit back and relax for most of the day along with trying to complete my 5 objectives I listed above.
My Articles
My parenting article is making some headway. Now to find an expert. I’m still waiting on a reply from the last expert on my “Control Freaks” article. He has not replied to my questions as of yet, but I know that he is probably very busy. I have so many article ideas to get in order and start querying to magazines and search for experts, info, and some quotes from some real day to day people.
Just a quick reflection of my life…
For some reason I just got a quick realization of my life. My life is well, good. I sit here looking over at my two cats laying in the window sill, and think about the man in life, my friends, and my career choice and of how supportive my man is of my career decision. I know he doesn’t like it one hundred percent, but he is still supportive. I love him so much.
My Diet – Back on Track?
Breakfast: Eggo’s and coffee.
Lunch: Not really sure, but for Dinner we’re grilling out. I just received this in my email – Marinades Help Keep Grilled Meats Safe. We marinade all our meat that goes on the grill except for burgers, however I have a special way of making them. Take ground beef and place into bowl, add chopped yellow onions and a half of a cup of Bar-B-Q sauce. Mix together and form patties. Put them on the grill and cook til done. They are awesome.
Tonight we’re going to have Bar-B-Q chicken legs (I think). This is a picture of the first Bar-B-Q chicken I ever cooked on the grill.
We’ll have grilled corn on the cob to go with this as well and maybe some pasta salad. That is if it doesn’t rain. Looking outside at this moment it is dark, cloudy, and windy with the look and smell of rain on its way. I can’t really complain because we really do need the rain. Our grass is crunchy and brown and thirsting for moisture. A lot of people around where we live have their wells going dry so there is a great need of rain here in our area.
UPDATE: Okay so its the weekend. We didn’t cookout and my lunch wasn’t exactly the best thing to eat. It was a deep-fried chicken breast on way too much buttered toast with tons of mayo, lettuce, and tomato. And a side of tater tots. For dinner I had Pizza. I ate all the toppings off and the inside of the crust (my favorite part along with the pepperoni). Okay on Monday, I’ll start again although I did lose 2 pounds. I’m guessing I’ve gained it all back by now.

“There is no such thing as Failure, just obstacles in the way!”
“I’m a 30 something girl who enjoys the simple things in life. A good book, a great meal – pref. Italian (cooked by myself), a great painting, a sad song, a blank wall, the smell of lilacs in the morning, a cheezy television show, a beautiful lily, a colorful sunset, a funny voicemail (usually from my brother), sitting quietly, a big truck, a great sounding hot rod, sleeping in, planting flowers, a great cup of coffee (hard to find), sitting in the park watching people, car shows, watching cars drive by, holding hands with the man I love, and just goofing off. I’m a simple girl seeking a simple life; nothing too complicated, no more drama, nothing too troublesome, just easy peasy, nice & easy – as long as its fun and no tears except tears of joy are shed.” -UpSideDownGrl
