My Dirty Little Secret

I must admit, I adore the gossip websites. I am not really sure why. Is it the knowledge that these 'superstars' are just as human as us, do I want to see them fail while they look so high and mighty? I am nosey by nature, I guess that is what it really boils down to. You post it, I'll read it. Be it newspapers, blogs or even Facebook updates, I like to know what is going on around me.

Maybe because I am at home a lot. I don't get to experience personal contact with other adults that much. Wow, I really need to get out more :P Don't get me wrong I love to interact with people. I think that is where DS1's social butterfly tendencies come from, not from his father. I just am a home body these days and I do enjoy it. I am more an observer than a join in kind of person. A good old fashion wall flower I guess. I do get lonely at times, needing another adult to talk too. That tends to fade quickly when I am around someone who rubs me the wrong way and makes me wonder why I decided to go outside today. I feel like such a snob sometimes. At the same time I have to remember that I can't please everybody. I can't be everybody's friend. I have this compulsive need to get everyone to like me. There has been a few times when I question myself (something wrong with me, did I do something to offend, etc) when someone seems off standish. I have to be grateful that the person who isn't talking to me right now is someone who I don't really want talking to me, cause they drive me NUTS.

Meh, to each their own I guess eh.

Best Wishes

OMG

OMG I have been so slacking! Well not really. Just trying to find the time to write is hard with a 7 month old, a 6 yr old (happy bday baby boy!) and a husband who is on the computer just as much as me :)

Nothing much new or exciting here. Xmas has come and gone, DS1 started SK this past fall and is doing well. His reading is really picking up. I am so impressed on how he is doing with it. He is really doing well. So proud! DS2 is starting to get on his hands and knees and do the wobble dance. God, crawling already? Well DS1 was 7 months when he started, why not him too. I got hubby to dig out a couple of gates, got to get another one for the stairs to the basement. Going to start baby proofing the living room this weekend (we'll see how ambitious I am) Forgot how many 'little' things we have that are at the 'right' height for babies.

Going away for a mini vacation this March Break. Think we are going to Ottawa for 4/5 days. Going to a couple of museums (airplane one for sure, of course) and doing some skating on the Canal. Visiting my husbands brother and his girlfriend as well, so that'll be nice. Nice to get away. Not far, just away in a hotel so someone else can clean up after me.

My bed is calling me. So sleepy these days by 830pm :) I feel so old at times like this, meh, comes with the territory of having kids, wouldn't change it. Grateful that I can stay home with them, not many people can do that these days.

Best Wishes.
