Wanted: fat free peanut butter and a pair of Jimmy Choos
Is it really all that much to ask for? To be "catwalk cool" with a spoonful of peanut butter? It seems that just when we are satisfied, we want more. More gadgets, more vacations, more clothes, more money, more time! There's never enough time! Time is my super uber duper cause of anxiety. Where did all the time go? and why is there never enough? 24 hours, I need at least 36. I was thinking of moving to Mars, but a day on Mars is only 35 minuets longer than an earth day!
So, the past 3 or 4 months has been a vortex of spiraling events, I feel almost drunk as I relax for the first time in almost 6 weeks! All has been good, actually great, just really busy. Last night I put myself into a benadryl coma and dreamed of being locked into a state park, where I could not find my way out of a lake and people were stealing my honey nut cheerios. Crazy, I know- must have been the benedryl, but I slept about 13 hours and it was blissful to awake and feel refreshed.
Since my blog is basically my diary, I always feel the need to post about things- that hopefully when I'm old, I can look back on and enjoy reliving in thoughts certain moments. I don't always publish my writings, in fact I have several that are only visible to me…I'll keep it that way for now.
The Kids- AC and I have 2 very active puppies! Karma has decided that the pregnancy quest is on hold, funny how things work out, but now we've got Joon and Dita and they are making our lives very very interesting. Puppies have a way of making you fall in love with them, it's like one look, one cute little paw on the hand, one precious wag of the tail and we're hooked. So, we're getting a crash course on raising kids…puppy style! Every now and then, I feel guilty, because I still miss Roxie.
Nashville was actually beautiful. This is my new chapter. In the midst of yet another failed government contract of a job…I was offered a position that I couldn't refuse! And, off to Nashville I went, with AC and Joon- we had a great time, until I had to stay another week by myself. But, I'm back and I love my new job so far. It was a bit crazy with the other contract still valid, but I managed and that's all I can say about that. Out with the old, in with the new. Onward to more positives and more opportunity! I'm excited! Karma, always there helping me out, giving me choices and the paths to take, I deserve an "A" for paying attention.
Funny, how Nashville is the place of Dave Ramsey…I found a version of my fat free peanut butter in the Total Money Makeover! This makes sense to me…AC and I are getting financially fit! No fatty or greasy debt to "weigh" us down. Karma introduced me to Dave, in a New York Life kinda way, and Now, I finally understand why I had to go thru last summer to get to this summer! No regrets! Weird how things always work out. And, I've got a resume on life, experience, work and the pursuit of happiness.
So, where's the Jimmy Choos? Still at Maison Weiss I'm sure. One day, I will actually buy a pair of Jimmy Choos, hey, it's something ridiculous to strive for. Yes, I dare to say it! Ridiculous, never ever did I think that I would consider Jimmy Choos ridiculous, but….yeah, there's just more important expensives….I said it and I'm still in shock.
Now, CONGRATS to Tate and Kelly!!!!!!!!! We had an awesome time!! SO happy for "the Nations"! The wedding was so beautiful, there was no Elvis, but Eddie was close enough- good times!
G-Lynn signing out….

Congrats on the job! I know you are so excited!! Definitely sounds like you and AC have your hands full with the pups
I would LOVE to get another one if I could just figure out how to train the one I have! And Tate would probably kill me if I brought another munchkin in the already crowded house
Thank ya’ll so much for coming and being a part of our special weekend. It truly was perfect having all of our close friends there…and AC standing on guard just in case SOMEONE tried to run
We love you and look forward to many future crazy adventures…The Cannons and The Nations!
