sleepy ... so sleepy!

I couldn't take it last night. Mr. Spaghettibender was up working on his letter of intent to go with his university application and all I could hear was the stupid computer mouse clicking and then him scribbling. I swear to god I almost when in and unplugged the computer. So finally at 12am I said - enough, turn off the computer.

So he then get ready for bed and hops in with his cold feet. That was fine but his twitching was driving me crazy. I took a blanket and went out to sleep on the couch. It is now 1am and the alarm is set for 5:30 ... great!

My eyes are so scratchy, I have no ambition to work. I was hoping to go outside at lunch with my mat and take a nap at the park but it looks like rain. Hum, not such a great day unlike yesterday.

I biked home, mowed the front and some of the back lawn - until I ran out of gas. Then I washed the stones for our fireplace hearth. Then I got everything together to marinate the salmon. Then I checked my email and facebook = ) Then I decided to go outside and put a coat of paint on the window frames. All of this done by 7pm. Wow, so much accomplished. I really don't think I am going to come close to that today. Mew!

Go Sens Go ... oh no...

Although I don't watch hockey that much - I really only care about the fights. I have some weird obsession with hockey fights... they get me very excited. Why - I don't know. So last night I actually started to think the Sens were losing because I was watching. So I stopped watch... then they scored. I start watching again... the ducks score... I stop watching... you get the drift. But once overtime hit I went to bed. So you can't blame the Ducks win on me watching cause I was sleeping. = )

I have so much too do and I don't want to do any of it. I am so lazy. The bridal shower and hence 25 strangers are heading over to my house is less than two weeks. I have tons of stuff to do between now and then. The three main ones are the tiling of the front foyer, replacing the stones on the fireplace hearth and staining the deck. If this rain doesn't stop soon I have no idea when I will have time to sand the deck so I can stain it. Ahhhh!!!! I still have so much to do that stuff is just the tip of the iceberg!

Maybe instead of blogging I should make a detailed list... sounds like a plan!

Honestly what's with facebook

I think I was lucky and hit the facebook thing after many of my friends have already made themselves sick on it. I see there are a few stragglers that are poking me now but it has settled down.

That's good because Mr. Spaghettibender has started evening classes at the University and he doesn't need any distractions. I felt so sorry for him after his first night. He came home panicked and kept asking me what he got himself into. I know it is really hard to go back to school. Write an essay - what the hell is an essay??? I personally couldn't do any English classes if my life depended on it ... okay maybe if my life depended on it but I wouldn't enjoy it. The only bit of reading I get done is the blogs I frequent. = ) I know it is pathetic but I prefer to spend my downtime watching movies or TV. And I really don't have all that much downtime.

Right now our home reno projects are all over the map. We tried to focus on one area at a time but the tiles for the front foyer are on back order, so off we went to work on the bathroom. Things in their are stalled until we find a vanity. But we have to sink and countertop picked out so once we hurry up and find a vanity we will getter dun!

Although with Mr. Spaghettibender needing to spend his time on school, I'm not sure when. Don't get me wrong I can do some thing myself but I need 'us' to be okay with my choices.

So we will see what adventures we undertake this weekend... maybe I should start journaling our adventures... that sounds entertaining. Okay to me! ;)

Good girl

Since I finally caved and joined facebook I have become mildly addicted. I did find one of Mr. Spaghettibenders old friends and decided to surprise him with a special visit. So Saturday afternoon Mr. Spaghettibender thought our friends M. Bo and husband were stopping by but instead when he went to the door he was shocked... and I mean shocked to see his old bar hoping friend. He was like a deer caught in head lights... he was so confused for at least the first hour. I had to keep explaning that M.Bo wasn't coming over.

Oh it was a night full of reminiscing and updating life stories. I was so much fun and I was so happy that Mr. Spaghettibender was having such a good time.

So this is what being a good wife feels like =)

Off he goes

Off went Mr. SpaghettiBender with his little school bag ... he looked so cute. Ready to conquer the world of University. You could see in his face a bit of panic but excitement. Off he went to register for summer courses at the University ... ready to start his university degree at the age of 33. Good for him. Oh wait that means I have to support him :O

But still he looked so cute, I should have taken a picture.

I tell ya, I have no idea how he does it. Or how he is going to do it. I am so scared for him. He was talking about a class on world literature so I read the blurb - no way. I honestly feel asleep while reading it. I could not sit in a class to discuss writing from different countries. How boring. The closest thing I come to in the form of literature is blogs : )

I can't wait to hear how his registration went. Everyday dealing with the university has a great story of our tax dollars at work.

What is it about Fridays?

Friday is here, yeah! I had tons of stuff to finish up at work so the day should go flying by.

I was happy and knew I could keep myself busy so off I went to start one task and let it go as I started and finished another task - great.

No! Not great!

Of course things can't run smoothly my first task got all messed up. And being that is it Friday and half of the world takes Friday off there is no one to help me fix the problem.

I have to juggle the time on this god-for-saken instrument with the senior people and that usually means the only time I can use it is when they are away but it also means that is the best chance I have to experience problems with it! Great!

Now I am going to be much much further behind.

I HATE Fridays!

Tad bit stressed

Okay I am starting to get a tad bit stressed. Since Mr. SpaghettiBender is going to be going back to school in the fall and I am going to be paying all our bills... well it is starting to stress me out. I wanted to save all the money for his tuition for the next 3yrs now and that way all we had to worry about was our everyday expenses. I have been pretty good about not spending money on luxury things like dinners out or household decor etc. But Mr. SpaghettiBender isn't doing the same. He sees no problem in spending at least a hundred dollars on food etc to have his family over for Easter dinner. What are you thinking?

I am trying to wrap my head around all the costs associated with him going to university and they just keep adding up and up. Plus he wants to take some courses this summer which will cost about $2500. Where is all this money going to come from?

I also have many events I have to pay for this year as well. There is another bridal shower coming up - regift : ) Then a good friend is having a baby - baby gift. I have to plan a bridal shower since I am the maid of honour - normally this would be divided between the bridesmaids but from the problems I am having now - not going to happen. Then I have to buy the dress for the Wedding - like $300 plus hair and make-up another $200. then there is the Bachelorette party. Plus we have two Wedding in one day and that will cost us $400.

Ahhhhh!!!!!

So what kind of money to prostitutes make these day : )
