Growing Up In Oz

This post was inspired by The Paper Mama.

Currently…

Obsessing over: Halloween costumes. I’m a little too consumed by what costume to get Madison for Halloween. If you follow me on Facebook or Twitter you already know that I just need to take a Xanax and calm the eff down. But the tantrums these days are over ALL THE THINGS & I’m really concerned that if I buy her the Butterfly costume that she now says she wants then when Halloween ACTUALLY comes she’ll decide she’ll want to be a Firefighter again and will throw herself on a ground and I’ll have to cancel Halloween. The end.

Working on: Motivating myself to start running…. again. With my parents moving and hurting my tailbone and not finding 4:45 a.m. an acceptable time to wake up in the morning I’ve managed to excuse myself from running for 2 weeks. This must end. My pants will thank me.

Thinking about: My first baby turning 3 on Tuesday. THREE. Can someone please tell me when this happened?

Anticipating: All of the new home improvement projects that we can start this Fall and continue into the beginning of 2013. Painting the front door red, adding cement to the area that was once an ugly rock garden by said front door (hopefully just in time for some Fall porch decorating (I use the word “porch” loosely since it will be like a 9 sq. foot slab, painting our bedroom, getting rid of all of our “matchy match” bedroom set in exchange for unique pieces, expanding the wood floor in our living room to the breakfast area, all new tile throughout the house. Whoever is next to Clint while he’s reading this please tell him to breathe!

Listening to: Michael Buble, duh.

Drinking: My second third cup of coffee.

Wishing: I was closer to some dear friends to help them celebrate upcoming birthdays. I love birthday celebrations.
