Apt update....

Well that didn't work out.
Took my mom and father-in-law to see it yesterday and....it definitely looks different in full daylight.
There were lots of issues we didn't see the first time...this one's a no-go.
Sad day ):

But happy new year!!!!
We didn't end up doing much last night. The original plan was to go downtown with a bunch of my friends to First Night (basically a big party in downtown Columbia) but it was SO COLD!!! And it cost $20. so we passed on that and just watched House and had a wine cooler. and went to sleep.

I wish you all a great new year with your friends and families!

Apartment shopping

We have been apartment shopping online and we're looking at our first one this evening!
I'm pretty excited.
It's only a one bedroom, one bath but it's so much cheaper than all the 2 bedrooms we've found.


.............


Looked at it last night and it's awesome!!! I'm super excited. I'm taking my mom to see it tomorrow afternoon! Yaaaay for finally almost getting our own place (:
I'm happy.

Christmas Time!!!

So this Christmas feels WAAAAAY different than ever before. Probably because my life is waaaay different than ever before....

but seriously, it doesn't feel like Christmastime at all ): Christmas has always been my favorite time of the year.

I have always enjoyed evenings doing my homework by the tree in the living room, cuddled up with my cat and hot cocoa.

But this year...it's not my tree in the living room, it's not my living room, no homework to do, my cat is at my mom's...just not the same at all ):

Even the Christmas service at church last Sunday was completely different than ever before!!! it was just like a regular service except we sang some Christmas carols. Normally the service has about 50 people on stage singing, lots of Christmas lights and poinsettas, a skit or two, etc etc. Not this year! Sad ):

We do have a tree in our bedroom though, so that's nice. It's a cheap fake one but it's a tree!

Putting up his Baby's First Christmas ornament (:

More to come...

OMG!!!!!!!!!

OMG I am seriously going to just SLAP her in the FACE one of these days.
There is someone in my life who is the absolute definition of b****. All she EVER does is complain about everything or make fun of people. That is all I have ever heard come out of her mouth.
She controls her parents, controls her friends, controls everything! Because if Little Miss Priss isn't freaking happy about it, OMG we have failed life.

Just today we were watching the show House and it was about a very overweight 10 year old girl who had a tumor (thus she was overweight....long story). All she could do was f-ing laugh at her. She was like, "OMG Daddy you have to come see this ginormous a*hole on this show! She's the size of a f-ing whale!" The sad thing is, he came in, looked at the tv, and started laughing! WHAT THE HELL?!
I just left the room.

She makes fun of her parents constantly, calls them freakin idiots, tells them what to do....when she talks like a sailor they just say, "Aw don't say that! That's not nice." We are not dealing with a 5 year old here.

I am moving. ASAP.

Bubble Baths

I went back to work today.
It was freeing yet sadly depressing.

It was great seeing my coworkers and friends again, but I missed Riley so much! It was like a huge part of me was missing all day.

He loved the sitter's though. The same lady who watched me and my brother when we were little is now watching my baby boy (:
I wouldn't have anyone else.

His face lit up in a grin as soon as he saw me this afternoon. Tears came to my eyes instantly...this little man that I love so much loves me too! and he knows me! Sweetest thing of my life.


Now I am off to take a much needed bubble bath...
