Just a little bit of random...

I was off this week playing "happy homemaker" which makes me not so happy. Housewifery is just not for me. After 2 days, I was done.

I had a wonderful Thanksgiving with my family yesterday. I snapped this picture.

3 generations of Anthonys- My brother, his son and my daddy

While uploading my pictures I found some I forgot I took. This bad boy I found one afternoon in September. I don't know why, but I love praying mantis. Maybe it's because the female bites the head off the male after they've mated. LOL!

I also snapped a few of the trees outside... before they got naked.

And one drunk self portrait of me and David from last night.

He's all bearded because he's participating in Movember... basically you don't shave for the month of November. Everyone loves the beard, but I hate it. It aggravates my sensitive skin. He's shaving it on December 1st! or... not... He really wants to keep it. :(

And one question... For Christmas, I've asked by husband to buy me a ring, but he prefers to buy me something that actually has a purpose other than sitting on my finger. :P So... I need ideas for an awesome gift for him to get me. What would you ask for?

Holy Stinking Tired!

I know... I've got nothing on you stay at home moms or working moms for that matter. But this chica is done! and it's only Tuesday!

So, lets start with the fun stuff! Saturday I went to a Halloween Party. I went out... Got myself a short costume... Well short on one side. It had an asymmetrical hem. It was short on the left and longer on the right. I don't have a good picture. So unless one of my friends comes through on Facebook, you'll have to take my word for it when I say I looked hot and totally rocked it! LOL!! It was really fun! There was drinking and some dancing. Not much eating because I was too busy drinking or catching up with friends I haven't seen in a while. We got home around 3 am. I was looking forward to sleeping in, but I woke up at 8 am and couldn't get back to sleep. Thankfully, I got to just hang around the house on Sunday. I made some chili in the crockpot and just chilled around the house. Unfortunately, I didn't nap on Sunday and I was feeling the effects of not enough sleep yesterday.

Then, this morning  I was up an hour earlier than usual because I had an interview before I went to work. It went very well. If you read last week's post, you'll know it's at a place I had interviewed at in July. Instead of getting a whole new candidate pool they revisit the good candidates they saw before. Everytime I go there all I can think of is how ideal it is. It's 15 minutes from my house!! With my current 45 minute commute, I can't help but long for a job close to home. What would I do with that extra hour a day? It's also in the state I live in, which would make tax time alot less stressful for David. It's a larger work environment and would be a great change of pace from the small offices I've worked at the last 5 years. It would be nice to have more than 3 other people to interact with. There are more reasons why I want this job, but that list could get very long. Overall it just seems like a decent place to work. I should know something next week. I'll keep you posted!

So... I'm a little tired this morning... I lie.. I'm alot tired this morning and my coffee is gone already. :(  On the bright side, I have left over chili to eat for dinner. Tonight, I am going to relax and maybe go to bed early to catch up.
