off week.

um, yeah.

so i've been missing for a bit.

sorry.

this is about the only thing i've really accomplished in days.

well, that and i cleaned out the pantry.

but now all of the stuff that i was storing in there is sitting on the

dining room table and underneath it.

not pretty.

i don't do a very good job of staying on task.

my bad.

so, yeah...i strung hearts.

so sad.

the colored hearts i cut out free hand using paper that i've had since before

emily was born.

super old.

i was tired of seeing it in my valentine's decor box.

i've spent a little time with my phone.

usually it's cause jen is texting me, wondering where the heck i am.

i haven't even gotten to read my book at all this week. i need to. maybe tonight.

i did manage to draw some pictures for my kids to color.

if you've ever read a child a sandra boynton book,

the characters looked like that.

i just freehanded a penguin and a hippo for emily,

a penguin and lion for aiden.

they liked that a lot.

justin told me, "i didn't know you could draw like that."

WHAAAAAT????

i guess i will have to introduce him to his wife. last night i watched 'the proposal' with justin. well, i watched the first 20 minutes of it with him. then his nyquil kicked in. still, i enjoyed it. funny flick. i heart ryan reynolds and his display of sarcasm. the best. i have been falling behind on my blog reading, too. the only one that i actually check everyday is rachel's. if i leave her a comment, she e-mails me back one. and if you don't know anything about me, that is the way into my heart. mail, that is. and that is why we are bff's. (in mumbled voice) whether rachel knows it or not. i really do love mail, though. love it beyond words. oh, and i haven't taken a photo in days, which is very unlike me. well, i took this one monday... or tuesday... or...what day is it?!? either way... i thought it was a funny moment. if you can see aiden, that is how he watches tv. sesame street was on, i think. something on pbs, i know for sure. i can't remember and i can't tell in the photo. anyway, justin stood there for 3 minutes watching the show before he finally turned around and told me he was leaving for work.

i've been busy working on a project, which is why i'm behind on things. it may possibly be for justin for v-day. i've been doing a lot of work on the computer for it and i am getting bed sores from sitting here so long. or chair sores. whatever. have you ever seen the friends episode where chandler stays home from work to play the old school arcade game of pacman so he can beat phoebe's scores?? his hand is all crazy looking, more like a claw when he's done after hours and hours of playing?? my hand is about like that from using the mouse all day. and i have bruises on the side of my hand from where it sits on my desk. ouch. that being said, don't judge me for not taking photos and editing them. at this point i never want to see the computer again. you know i'm serious now.
