90's hip hop, working out, cleaning house, and scary stuff

Not particularly in that order.

Who remembers the 90's? I was in my tween/teenage years in the 90's. I've been on a Pandora 90's hip hop kick lately; Biggie, Tupac, Puff Daddy, Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, Salt N Peppa, TLC...Luniz. I mean, come on. You know what I'm talking about. I don't think they make hip hop that good anymore!

Don't get me wrong, there were plenty of good rock/alternative songs out there too! I mean, Dave Matthews and Green Day. Need I say more?

I haven't worked out in almost 2 weeks. I went once. I'm so mad at myself. I'm never going to get back in shape if I keep slacking off. But once you throw in a full time job, and wife and mother duties, time is slim and I have a lot going on. Even if I plan to work out when Chase goes to bed, I still can't get there. I'm determined tonight to go, if it kills me!

One of my "things I have too much of" (and no B...it's not shoes) is house work. It.never.ends. I feel like I clean, and 5 minutes later it's a mess again. It's hard to keep up. I feel like everything turns into a catch all. Especially my kitchen table. Keeping my house clean is a full time job within itself and there is no paycheck and don't even get me started on laundry, that's a separate job and it doesn't even come with benefits.

I was checking the weather today...apparently, it's supposed to snow on Friday...(da eff?) While I was on Weather.com, I came across a link called: PHOTOS: Creepy Abandoned Theme Parks (you can look for yourself here). It immediately sparked my interest. I think stuff like this is so cool. I would love to travel just to see abandoned/haunted places. In my younger years, I was really into going to see "The House With No Corners" in Bully Valley, IL. I also walked around Bachelor's Grove Cemetery which was cool. I think old stuff like this is pretty neat, even though I get freaked out about it. LOL


Well... I better finish my chores, so I can finish my chores, so I can go work out.

Later

*grumble, grumble*

I'm so glad tomorrow is Friday.

My friend was admitted to the hospital on Monday.

Her water broke.

And while normally, this would excite people...it's too early...12 weeks to early, so she is on bed rest an hour away....

Did I mention she watches C?

Oh, just that "minor" detail.

The call came in at 6am on Monday morning, which happened to be April Fools Day. However, there was no follow up call to remind me of the day and to say they would see me in an hour...

I frantically started emailing every daycare center I could find. I didn't know what I was going to do.

Oh....did I mention I had to take B to the dentist? Did I mention that we were at Walgreen's Take Care Clinic and the ER on Sunday? Did I mention, I kept sneezing? Guess who felt like crap by 3pm? Guess who was making dinner for Easter? :-/

(sorry for all the questions)

So Monday, while I was emailing every daycare in the county and feeling like crap and taking B to the dentist and feeling awful because C didn't get a real nap, I checked my Facebook.

And there was my epiphany.

My dear friend who stayed at home...maybe she would watch C for a bit until everything went back to normal.

I messaged...she said yes.

Thank GOODNESS!! I'm forever grateful!

And that sums up my cray cray week...

Maybe tomorrow, I'll go to the gym.

Peace
