I woke up yesterday with a nasty sore throat. First initial thought was, “Alright, whose the ass from Christmas to get me sick?!” I feel like crap. I just want to sleep on the couch. Unfortunately, I am a mom. When moms are sick, they don’t get too much of a break. The kids don’t suddenly get put on pause so you can take some time to rest. You have to hope for your significant other – if you have one – to help you out in the tough times of being sick. Mike does his best, but he got Left 4 Dead 2 yesterday so he’s been playing that. That’s okay though. Nickolas is gone until Wednesday at Matt’s house, so I get a bit of a break from the craziness.

As you can see, and I didn’t blog about it in my previous entry – There’s a new theme! *lights fireworks* -Kaboom- -Bang- Alright, anyways, I made a new theme. I worked hard as hell on it during the duration of just one day. I started at around 6am finished designing it by 1pm and got it all coded and live sometime that night. This is by far, not my most favorite theme, but I am still very content with it at this point. I’ve had designers block for the past few months. I starred at websites for a while just to try to get some inspirational and creative juices flowing in my head – yea, that didn’t work. So, here it is. Ta-Da!

Our friend’s Adam and Gwenn bought us some presents yesterday. She bought me a set of Pyrex mixing bowl set and Julie & Julia. Mike got Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory on BluRay and Left 4 Dead 2. I’m oober excited about the mixing bowls. You have no idea how excited. Seriously, people usually don’t get excited about a set of mixing bowls but I’ve totally wanted some. *On a side note – I just had to add the word “oober” to my dictionary on Firefox. While it might not be a real word, hell it probably isn’t even spelled correctly, I had to do it. So anyways, I want to personally thank Adam and Gwenn for our presents. You guys are awesome friends. I will definitely have to let you all know how Julie & Julia was. I have tons of other movies I need to watch too. Hmm, may have to figure out a few new sites to watch movies online. I will have to do some browsing and try to find some. I have quite a large list of “movies I want to see, but won’t force Mike to watch with me.” I had better get on that.

What else was I going to write about? Oh! I really have to start kicking myself in the butt to get into sweepstaking again. While I haven’t missed a day of entering my daily instant win games, I am having a hard time remembering and forcing myself to do the normal daily entry sweeps. I haven’t won anything since my latest big win. I guarantee that its mainly because I haven’t been entering as much as I should be – Plus, the best time to enter is early, early in the morning or in the middle of the night. Trying to stay out of another manic episode, I just won’t allow myself to stay up all night for sweepstakes.

I suppose that it is all for now. I’ll blog again soon. I’m trying to stay in touch and blog more. We’ll see how long this lasts.
