Say What?
"Julie, there is shit on my computer room floor"
That is how I was "pleasantly" woken up this morning at 6. Two things entered my mine upon hearing this.
1. Why are my eyes open and it's still dark outside?
2. Did Keith brake his hands last night and I suddenly forgot about it?
So we did a little surprise thing and drove to New York for Christmas. We left Friday morning and hit beyond horrible traffic. What normally takes us about 12 hours of driving took us 16. It was not fun people.
My parents were the only people that knew we were coming home so when we rolled up around 1am they were waiting on us. Lucky Them.
We had a great chaotic Christmas. We only stayed three days and left Christmas night to come back to North Carolina. By the time we got back, upacked, and cleaned up I felt like I had been hit by a Mac Truck. I think the last time I was that tired was when Em was a newborn. It was nice to see everyone and I am glad we did it. If we ever do it again though I am going to prep myself with lots of vitamins and energy pills.
Em had a fun Christmas. I am not sure she understands yet exactly what is going on but she did understand that she got to open gifts. Every time she opened something she would hand me the box and say " Open now Mommy".... Her room is beyond anything I can clearly describe to you or even try to give it justice. I can't even stand to look in it...
I have been taking pictures with my new camera but as of now they are all of Em and family. I managed to learn a bit from my Dad and I have been feeling more comfy with it. I plan on taking a basic photography class as well. Now I have no excuse if I take lousy pictures, it's me and not the camera. That thing takes awesome looking pictures, I love the quality!!!
I must TRY and get Em and I out of the house today. Since we have been back from NY we haven't felt up to leaving the couch let alone the house. The problem is I have to think of something to do and since where we live is not known for much of anything, I am having a hard time coming up with stuff. Not to mention it got a bit cold here and I am not good being out in the cold. It makes me want to curl up on the couch and stay warm... not something a two year old is really in to.
Well, that about sums it up for now. Oh wait... I forgot to mention that when we went to NY, I of course got to see Kari at her house. She was doing the whole Christmas dinner thing with her family and I got to see Mary, her other sister in Law. I was taking some pictures of everyone when somebody made a comment about them being on my Blog... then it hit me. Have ALL of these people read my Blog? Great... now I am in a room full of people who know just how crazy I really am. "Think Julie, what have you said in your Blog?"... "Ummm, the word F-U-C-K about 5 Thousand times" That isn't too bad is it? I mean I am married to a Marine, they use that word for pretty much for anything so it had to rub off on me at some point, not my fault. "What else?"..." Oh shit, they know about the Creature, now they really think you're crazy." "What about the whole seven months Keith was gone and you really turned crazy?" "What about chasing Bree around the neighborhood with Em bouncing on your hip and your yelling to your fucking dog?" "Or even better what about the time you posted pictures of your feet along with your father's and 90 year old grandmothers" Great Julie, why do you post this shit? Why give people even more of a reason to consider you crazy? So what do you do when you meet people that have read your Blog and know way too much about you before really knowing you face to face? I'll tell ya... you sit back, be quiet, and let everyone else make an ass out of themselves...
Anyway, I am off to play house again. Em would probably like her big ass pee pee diaper changed... Later people.
