little snippets

I don't tweet (?) ... not that I think it's silly or inherently bad, it's just that I can't commit to being committed. As is evident on this blog and facebook, I will go through periods where I have the urge and the time to write often. But those times are few and far between. Then there is the common excuse... I have nothing interesting to say. It's true, my life is fairly boring.

Anyway, if I were to use Twitter, here are some (truly boring) things I might have tweeted(?) lately, except for the whole word limit thing:

- I really love southern California. It's been 70s and 80s, sunny, clear and beautiful. We've gone to the pool a lot lately and we went hiking on Sunday, the same day my in-laws lost power because of a nasty rain storm in the northeast.






- The other night, PJO woke me up and said, I think there was an earthquake. I mumbled "uh-huh, sure" and drifted back to sleep. He's been paranoid that any minor shaking is the dreaded EARTHQUAKE since he moved out here. I guess he was right. Since I was a kid, I've slept through just about every tremor. (...knocks on wood..)

- I think the thing I miss most about my life pre-baby was being able to take a long time to enjoy the things that are now chores ... when did I last cook a big, elaborate meal and have fun doing it? Oh and having a clean, organized house. That too.

- I also miss being able to lay out in the sun instead of hurriedly putting clothes back on the baby and getting him in the shade. Luckily, I have a girls' weekend coming up! A weekend filled with spa appointments, food, pool time, cocktails, shopping and girlfriends in Palm Springs! My first time away from Timmy, minus the Bar exam of course. It will be delightful.

- 7 months from today is my first day of work. That seems really, really soon.

- A week from today, Timmy will be 15 months old. It's been almost 2 years since I got pregnant. Really?! Wow. Time flies.

- Yesterday was St. Patrick's day. I'm pretty indifferent to this holiday, although I toasted some green bagels in the morning. But since I felt compelled to eat something green, I had a big bowl of guacamole for lunch. Mmm, much better than corned beef or whatever the festive food should be.

- [I could write real, actual posts ... lots of them ... about careers/jobs. Related to both myself and PJO. But that will have to wait for now.]

- This week, Timmy transitioned to one nap. It's glorious. We can go do stuff outside most of the day now, and when we're home I have at least 2 hours to do whatever I want. Reading, eating and watching movies are all in my weekday future.

- Have you done the 30 day shred? Because I own the DVD and may soon break open the packaging. How many days will I last? Do I really care enough to get off my lazy ass and sweat?

- I never thought it would happen, but I'm a convert ... officially prefer Mac to PC now. I feel like a traitor. But also a really cool rebel.

ya, nothing even remotely interesting...I'm debating even publishing, but since it's been over a week, here it is.

I totally miss a clean house too- or at least a house that stays clean for longer than 10 minutes after you clean it! I also miss lounging in the sun. When we went to hawaii in the summer I was so busy keeping Jacob in the shade and making sure he didnt eat sand to enjoy myself!

wow- 7 months- so exciting! soak it all up!

Love the pics!

I, well pre-pregnancy, did 30 day shred. HIGHLY recommend it! Level 1 will feel so difficult the first day (I was even in pretty great shape when I started), but you'll see that after 5 days or so, you're ready to move on to day 2!

Day 3 seems hard always...no matter what kind of shape you get in.

Jillian Michaels is my favorite. ; )
