My thoughts on laying around in bed

As I sit here in my bed, eating french fries with ranch I decided I should blog.

Here are just a couple of my current thoughts on having a passenger inside.....

1. The food i have been eating is both wonderful and scary, tasty yet so gross.

2. Two days ago I had Robert help me to remove my belly-button piercing which i have had since age 16. After it was removed i lay on my bed crying, wondering if i would ever be "cool" again.
Wondering if i would be able to ever put it back in again so that i could be the mom with the belly-button piercing. I cried also because i was freaked out to look at myself without the tiny piece of silver attached to my body. It took my 24 hours before i could look at myself.

3. Im wondering how a peanut sized friend could possibly cause me to be this hungry all the time?

4. Im wondering why the hallway of 3rd floor has to smell so bad all the time, causing me to want to die every time i enter to kitchen.

5. And im thinking I might be boring for the rest of my life, based on the fact that I cant handle doing anything other than going to bed by 4 pm every day.

25 and pregnant.....and feelin gross

This is me on my 25th birthday....which was on Sunday.

3 years

Today is our 3 year anniversary

Fun on the Farm with my

We had a fun day on a farm recently!
Which included cornfields....

Animals......

And even a creepy (yet, semi-enchanting) old lady to teach us how to spin wool

The Birds

Two perched birds.....(Dad, this is really scary)

Fan on or off ???

Sleeping with a fan on is the norm for us. It provides a lovely and comfortable sleep, free from any kind of sounds happening anywhere out of our room....which is quite a lot.

But, sometimes I like to turn it off or at least on low, allowing me to be aware of every single happening outside our window on Jones street. A simple reminder to us that just because we have gone safely to bed in our comfortable room, doesnt mean that the rest of our community has done the same. In fact, its often worse once we have gone to bed. The things we sometimes hear at night are basically horrifying.

Last night with the fan set to low, we were awakened by a drive by shooting right outside our building. We have an active strip club next door to us, and at 3 a.m while the sidewalk was flooded with people in line to get in/out/just hanging out, we heard the sounds of chaos.
Gun shots...to screams....to mass chaos....to confusion...to sirens...to numerous police yelling and holding the biggest guns ive ever seen a cop carry. They looked like they were going to war.
We ran to the window and watched pure chaos take place right below us.
It was like a movie. Thats the only way i can describe it.

This is why we sleep with a fan on. And this is also why we sometimes sleep with the fan turned off.

Back to Life

We are now back to reality. Our vacation was thoroughly enjoyed and time with family was great!
But we are happy to be back!

Not much time to blog right now, but ill put up some pictures and other updates soon.
