What’s On Your iPod?

I’m still here.  I’ve been busy with this new work thing.  And of course, the baby.

So anyways…I am currently back into being obsessed with my iPod.  I hate Apple but LOVE my iPod.  It’s the podcasts.  They’re like talk radio, but on topics that interest ME.  So what am I currently listening to?

The Paperclipping Roundtable  -  A panel of scrapbook industry insiders discussing various topics in Scrapbooking.

Foolish Adventure – Want to start an online business?  Listen here!

Manic Mommies – The podcasts for Moms trying to do it all…and then some!

The Instance – Best World of Warcraft podcast.  Hands.  Down.

Film Sack – 4 guys sitting around talking about old movies….as in, movies from the 70s/80s/90s, and maybe some 2000s tossed in.  The movies must be on Netflix streaming for them to discuss it.

The Final Score – Gaming podcast.  Love me some games.

Those are the big ones.  Of course I have many others.  But that’s the best…at least right now!

Anatomy of a Very Bad Day

Let’s start…

H was up repeatedly in the night.  Teeth?  Bad dreams?  Not feeling well?  Don’t know.  Not sure.  just know I’m REALLY TIRED.

Came downstairs with H this morning, and found an ant at the bottom of the stairs.  Annoying.  Stomped on it and killed it.

Walked into kitchen…ants all over the floor!  AHHH!  They probably came in because of the rain and then hung around because they found a piece of cat food.

FREAK OUT!

Feeding baby…realized I forgot to put her bib on before starting her breakfast.  Reached for the bib…and she threw up all over herself.

BLECK!!!

I think maybe I should just have not gotten up today.

Waiting

Things have heated up a good bit in my job search.  However, this has led to an extremely stressful week.  A week with lots of hurry up and wait. 

Waiting.

Did I ever mention that I don’t do well waiting for things?  I’m nervous about something, I have a habit of making myself sick over it.  Heck, if I’m excited about something, I have a habit of making myself sick over it.  I have even made myself stressed out and sick over waiting for something that we plan to do SOMEDAY but it’s actually anywhere near coming to fruition.

Yes, waiting and I don’t get along well.

But you know what?  That’s ok.  I’m still here, hanging with Miss H.  We’re making plans for things to do this summer…Zoo trips and family visits and parties.  We’re working on getting Miss H to say her first words, or take her first steps…or use a sippy cup.  We’re moving onward and upward. 

And tonight is family game night.  I’m hoping D gets out of work at decent time, we can have dinner, get H ready for bed, and play WoW together.  We’ve been wanting to go questing together for a couple of weeks and it just hasn’t happened.  I’m excited to get through Hyjal finally. 

Maybe tomorrow I’ll get some scrapbooking in.  Or some work on my art journal.  I might try to sketch the dog.  I’ve never tried to sketch something before. 

Waiting may be tough, but keeping busy will help.

Attitude, I tell  you.  Attitude.  My Ali Edwards “One Little Word.”
