A Fairy Tale

So for my birthday my eight- year old friend, Hannah Banana gave me the funniest card, thought I would share- pretty poetic since recently I feel as though I, myself, am a princess too...

"A Birthday Fairy Tale"

Once upon a time, there was a princess who was like a size 4 or something.

She could eat and drink whatever she wanted and always stayed really skinny and had flat, firm abs even though she never went to the gym.

Every time she tried on jeans, the very first pair fit and made her butt look amazing.

She lived in a great big, beautiful castle with her handsome, multimillionaire husband, who was busy all the time buying her giant diamonds, taking her to Hawaii, giving her foot massages, and telling her how beautiful she was.

One day, she was eaten by a dragon and no one cared.

The End.

Thanks Hannah Banana, I needed to retrieve my head from the clouds! :)

*Gulp* The Big 4...0!

So it looks like the big 4...0 is right around the corner.

With this in mind, I recently found my 30's goals; they are as follows:

1. Complete an upper college degree

2. Back-pack through Europe

3. Attain Sign Language degree

4. Re-do all of the house

5. Write a book

6. Have at least a 2 year relationship

7. Be a better person than I am now

8. Make a difference in one life

9. Have or adopt another baby

10. Go to New Zealand- meet Delwyn

11. Close the dark chapter to my life

12. Raise well adjusted children

All in all I did rather well. When I wrote these goals, I thought they were really shooting to the stars, attaining few to none. I have learned so much about myself & how strong I am through each of these being attained.

In the spirit of things here is my 40's list, I only hope I can be as successful with this one!

1. Attain a PhD

2. Live in Italy for a month and learn how to cook

3. Go to New Zealand- meet Delwyn

4. Have my book on the Best Sellers List

5. Learn to fly

6. Master meditation

7. Go to Asia

8. Be a better person than I am now

9. Skydive with Taylor on his 21st Birthday

10. Alter lives in a positive way- in Africa

11. Complete Spudman with the boys

12. Raise well adjusted children who add to society

So, I guess now I just need to blow out a bunch of candles, hopefully with out burning something down, and get busy!

Wish me luck! :D

Cell Phone Dilemma

Anyone who knows me, knows I keep my cell phone in my bra. Yes, bra. When it rings or buzzes I reach in there to grab the thing out- much to the shock as dismay of random strangers at the grocery store.
Anyhow, my phone could really use an upgrade and last week Taylor and I were discussing this topic here is how the conversation unfolded:

Taylor: So you are going to look into new phone hun?
Me: Yeah, I think so....
T: So what are you going to do with your old one?
M: I dunno
A few seconds later....
M: Why? Do you want it?
T: Ummm No. Mom it has been touching your boob now for over a year.
M: Giggles

The funny thing is he really wants the phone. I guess we will see if my germed up boob-touching phone is his in the next few weeks, won't we?
