Randoms for Tuesday

I am.... planning lots of green surprises for tomorrow,
feeding Tru,
typing one-handed,
wearing jeans,
34-years old,
married to the Love of My life,
ready for a nap.

I think....there are way too many piles in my house.

I should...hop on my treadmill everyday.

I dream....of a day when my home is organized once again.

I want....my children to be happy, respectful, kind, and good = oh so good.

I know...that I need to BE STILL more often.

I don't like....the smell of onions.

I smell...very well... My nose has a very sensitive smeller... which is not always a good thing.

I hear....the washing machine water filling up for the rinse cycle.

I fear....dieing before I've raised my kids. I know I shouldn't. But I do.

I usually...am good at making soup... but lately, not so much.

I search...deep down for patience.

I miss....carefree days without lots of household tasks.

I always...have blonde hair.

I regret....to inform you that I can't think of any regrets at this present moment.

I wonder....how moms do everything.
Keep kid's booger-free
make dinner with kid's either crying or wanting to help,
get laundry washed, folded, & put away all in a single day,
volunteer at the school with a 2-year-old & an infant,
ensure kid's get homework and reading done,
make homemade bread every week,
avoid having piles in each room,
keep up on clothes that are too small for kid's,
spend enough time with each tot,
remember everything to buy at the store...
I Sure can't do it all, that's for sure.

I crave....quiet time.... other times I crave fun play time with no crying tots.

I remember...the days when I would run up and down hills in Provo for 6 miles at 11 p.m. and want to keep going. Not so much any more.

I need.....some clothes that look good on me.

I forget....everything. My brain is really quite dysfunctional lately. Really.

I feel....glad. Glad that all 3 of my boys are quiet for a few minutes in naps or quiet time.

I can....finally make chocolate chips cookies well. It only took me 7 years to find a recipe that works for me.

I can't....do things quickly... except type and play the piano.

I am happy....there is sunshine outside today.

I lose.....receipts.

I sing....3 songs to the boys at bedtime... popcorn popping, Jesus wants me for a Sunbeam, and I hope they call me on a mission.

I listen...to Celtic Woman in the kitchen when I cook.

I shop.....online. It's really hard for me to enjoy shopping with tots in tow.

I eat....piles of food... like Hawaiian Haystacks, Taco Salad, Soup. I love lots of flavors so it isn't boring. Plus, all the vegetables hide the meat.

I love.....my beautiful, ORDINARY life. I really do. I don't realize that half of my days, but when I think about it, I realize how blessed I AM to be right where I AM.

I got this idea from my friend Marne. Kinda fun!
