So, after having a few minutes (count'em, FEW) at work..gASP I realized I've really taken a nose dive as far as blogging goes. I mean, I read my friends' blogs with pictures and captions and gorgeous backgrounds and all I can think is. Ppft, with eyes rolling. I just don't have enough hours in my day! Seth is pulling up on the couch. Yesterday morning, I walked into his room to get him bc he had been quiet for WAY too long. I'll have you know, he was STANDING up with his little teefees on the crib rail. STANDING I tell you! And, when he saw me, he just smiled! Oh how I'm a sucker for a Seth-smile.
I digress.
So, looks like Jay and I are trying to plan some type of vacation to Florida aka Flo-RIDA :0) next month just for a few days during the week. We'll probably end up taking Sethie with us but we're still gonna have oh so much fun! I'm looking forward to sunshine- heck, I'll probably even take my scary straw hat.
The blue water down there is nothing less than refreshing. Like coke in a mason jar that's condensating.
Do you see my true insanity coming out now? LOL
I've lost 7- count em 7 pounds on my cookie diet. It's really really good girls. I mean, it's HARD but not like I"m starving. I've realized that I eat a lot JUST to eat and JUST because I love to eat. It's crazy. I'm looking forward to losing LOTS more and hopefully feel a ltittle better. I haven't been as bitchy as I thought I would be. I mean, we're talking NO carbs here folks. And, FYI, I'm the carb queen. You know that commercial where the girl says "who you calling cootie queen you lint lickerrrr?" Well...it's like "who you callin carb queen you lint lickerrrr?" LOL.
I really haven't felt like I've been able to enjoy of this summer we're having. I'm hoping that I'll be able to have a few hours soon when all I'll be doing is soaking up some vitamin D and wiggling my toesies in the sand...you know, miles away from my laundry and housework!
I hope y'all are enjoying some of the summer. I hope that those of you without kids are able to get away and center yourself. And, I hope my mommy friends are able to remember what those days were like :)
Life is good. Always.
Love you , you sweet followers you!!

About Me
- Oak City Books
- Welcome to my blog. It's a dedicated place for my book reviews, criticism, and love of all things bookish. I am a mom of 4 busy kids that uses reading as my, "thing." I find that reading books turns off all (okay, mostly all?) of the noise of my world and lets me get away for a bit. Reading helps me escape the reality of the piles of laundry that will never be done, the dust bunnies that I swear will one day grow legs, and the emails and outlook calendar that occupy my life Monday- Friday during working hours. Reading is therapy for me and always has been. I've always been a big dork, introverted, creative, and reflective. If I won the lottery tomorrow, I'd probably open up a used bookstore with my standard poodle somewhere on the side of the mountain and surround myself by others who enjoy passing their time reading. Until then, I'll keep on keeping on. And, I'll settle for reading when I can. Which, I try to fit in as much as possible. Cheers to your busy life and mine, doing the best we can, as often as we can.
