One thing that I've realized revently is that I've been comparing myself wayyyyy too much to other bloggers. I like blogging. But I don't like technology. I realize that most bloggers decorate their posts with all kinds of pictures and links and giveaways. Well guess what? It's basically a miracle if I remember to empty my pictures off of my camera in any sort of appropriate time frame. And half the time, I don't even think to take pictures of half the s*#t that most bloggers think is interesting. So here's the deal: I vow to do a better job of updating the blog. However, don't get your hopes up for pictures of what I ate for dinner (I mean, seriously, who cares?) Or run results. I hate running. Or giveaways. I'm not nearly organized enough for that. Not now, anyway. ( I know, what the heck kind of blogger are you then??) Get over it.
I'll try to be funny. Sometimes it'll happen and sometimes it won't. Whatever. I'm not gonna stress about that anymore. It's my blog, and that's what you'll get- ME. The funny, the sad, the boring, the REAL. My hope is that you'll be able to relate at one point or another. And I would really love it if you would tell me about it. Because sometimes it's nice to hear that you're not alone. Hence the reason for sharing my life with every person who has access to a computer.
So here we go.
My kids are going to be really freaking cute tomorrow (obvi). I'll be sure to post a pic.
I've found a way to get emotionally-charged teenagers to calm the freak down (at least temporarily)- buy a class pet. We now have two little turtles in our room. They are really cute and the kids love them. I'll try to remember to post a pic.
I have been horrible with trying to keep up any kind of regular workout routine. I hate being chubby, but apparently I don't quite hate it enough yet to really do anything about it. I love eating Halloween candy. A lot. I'm too fat to post a pic.
I ate butternut squash soup for dinner that I made from scratch. It was really good. I won't post a pic.
I've now officially been married for 7 years. That's a long time and there were times we weren't quite sure we were going to make it. But as much as irritate each other, we've decided that we actually do like each other enough to stick it out. Here's hoping we make it to year 8! Here's a pic:

It's good to be back!
Have a healthy day,
