10 very long things right now: thursday

1. think one of these "vicious" looking dogs would make for a great guard dog? via sharon montrose. {sorry for the repeats from the old blog but i want to keep adding my favorites on this new blog so bear with me}

2. mike's work truck got broken into last night and of course he left his work laptop in his truck. just glad it was his truck and not the house and that no one got hurt. except for the bastards who did, i hope they got hurt.

3. so this morning i'm coming up with all the high security measures needed in keeping my family safe. cute guard dogs included. i even had a sandra bullock moment {from her new movie coming out this week- blindside} and said in my head "anyone who messes with mike's truck, messes with me."

4. kaylee and i have been playing earring shop. she loves getting all my earrings out, i pretend to ring a bell, she comes out and puts the earrings in my ear that i have chosen. then we do it all again.

5. one day last week i let kaylee give me a panicure and pedicure. yes, another kayleeism. she didn't do too bad of a job.

6. chiropractor is going great! just a few dull aches in my back/shoulder now and then, nothing like before. my sinuses are still messed up but at least one complaint is slowly diminishing.

7. kaylee has a line to say in her pre-school christmas program. we worked on it all weekend and she finally has it down.

8. looking for a birthday/holiday dress for kaylee. have this one from kayce hughes/pears and bears but think it might be too spring/summerish even with a red cardigan. loving this one with a cream turtleneck for a casual look and cream cardigan for a dressy look. also loving this one but can't decide red or green.

9. last night mike told kaylee to get use to it being so dark at 6pm, we still have 6 months to go. depressing huh?

10. last friday one of my sweet buddies surprised me with a hot chocolate from starbucks because she knew i was craving one. totally enjoyed it and it warmed my heart. i was on my way to the grocery store when it hits me- i have to use the bathroom. i hate using public restrooms and try to avoid it at all costs. but i had too because i had to go THAT badly. afterwards i went on my merry way of getting some groceries when i had to go again! {before drinking my delicious hot chocolate, i drank 20 oz of water.} i left my cart and drove home hoping to make it and hoped no trains along the way. happy to report, i did not have to wait on any trains and i did make it home.
