yes i still have my awesome giveaway going strong until FRIDAY AT MIDNIGHT!
you want in right?go enter. did you link? don't miss out on upping your chances by linking it up!

So i'm feeling much better today.

i did after that rant actually. it had been a long day.i was tired after yet another lunch at Barro's where i was up and down 50 times chasing Pierce. I am ready to boycott Barro's pizza. i love it. i go at least 3 times a week. sometimes more. and yet, i am SICK TO DEATH of chasing Pierce all through the freaking resuraunt. they need to add a FREAKING DOOR to the kid/play room there. and quit luring away and tempting my baby with candy in the video game room. i've talked to the Manager. i need to tell him to get it done, or i'll take my business elsewhere. between me and the other moms that frequent barro's they make some money everyweek. they should keep us happy right? i Wish! if they had a gate or half door. i'd go there everytime i have a lunch date. i practically already do. but if they don't get a door soon, i'm going to start going elsewhere.

but still today is awesome!

i had a haircut appointment with my friend Reilly! and it is PERFECT! and i got to see her cute new baby Tommy for a minute too. he even gave me smiles!

and even better, she did my brows! and seriously i feel a MILLION TIMES BETTER! what a HUGE difference a little grooming makes. yay!

on the way home i picked up IN 'N OUT! YUMMY!

really it's a GREAT DAY!

i finished Ender's Game last night. i liked it fine. the internal struggle was not the most relaxing reading i've read lately. but it was enjoyable, and i will try to find and read the rest of the series.

I finished just as i was walking out the door to curriculum night. which went well. next year i am making plans with my pal ONEHM and we are going out afterward for dessert. we deserve it. just do a little bit for ourselves. after an evening of sitting in a class hearing stuff we've heard before.

Peyton is on Harry Potter #7. over 300 pages in already. he's loving it. and for the accelerated reader program he already has 144 points. and that's just from testing on the Harry potter books. not even from the others he read this summer. he is a reader. his ELP teacher thought it was pretty smart to blog his survey questions too.

and i spent some quality time with my modpodge and glitter late last night. it was delightful. Lance kept me company, and i crafted while he played the LAMEST game ever. while we listened to his playlist. FUN!~

so that is what's going on today.
