I finally got to sleep fairly well last night. I got most of the housework done. We are having company tonight (which I totally HATE during the week...I have no idea WHY people can't visit on weekends!) so that motivated me to get off my butt and clean the living room to an acceptable level.
I worked all weekend cleaning windows, blinds, vacuuming, cleaning the furniture, and it looked like a tornado had hit it when Garrison went to bed last night. He LOVES pulling out stuff and leaving it everywhere. I guess this is only the beginning of that...
On a more exciting note, however nerdy this might sound, I am sooo excited that the high school I graduated from will be having a school wide reunion. I am currently working to get a message board for our class going so that it will be operational when the reunion takes place and we'll be able to get that moving. I kinda like keeping up with what's going on with everybody...okay well not everybody, but most people.
I got to make a total fool of myself this morning in our safety meeting. I am the Safety Supervisor for our office, which is hard when I'm not familiar with all aspects of what our company does. It makes it hard to talk about procedures in a meeting when you have no earthly idea what you are actually talking about. And of course, an office full of men is more than happy to try and trip you up when they know that you aren't really sure of what you are talking about. Oh the joy of consulting work with engineers.....no matter what you think you know...engineers think that they know more.
My little man is talking up a storm! Before long I'll be competing to get a word in! This afternoon, his papaw is taking him to feed and "ride" the new horses. I bet he'll love that. At least he'll be having more fun than his mommy, who will be having her annual exam with Dr. Lee....isn't being a woman fun? Just when you think you can't be invaded any more than you already are, (for example when your toddler feels the need to watch you pee every time you go to the bathroom) you get to do something fun like to get an exam and have your blood drawn.
Anyway, have a great day............

Melissa
Melissa-Mom to LittleMan (4/04); wife to LuckyHusband; full-time toxicologist; full-time housekeeper; full-time domestic laundromat manager (washes all the clothes); full-time domestic finance manager (pays all the bills and yells at husband for spending too much money on fishing stuff); and Keeper of the Cheerios. Lives in a tiny town; spends tons of time with family; reads; enjoys crafts. Can change a diaper, fill a sippy cup, and put on a toddler's shoes in 15.4 seconds flat, all while calculating the impact of petroleum hydrocarbons to a nearby surface water body (watch for me in the Toddler Olympics on CBS this fall). Addicted to Dr. Pepper; Kit Kats; and pasta. To spot me in a crowd: I'm the one with frizzy messed-up hair, smeared graham crackers on my shirt; huge purse with a diaper peeking out, toddler on her hip, and camera in hand at all times.
