Those little indulgences

So, in life there are those indulgences that you enjoy (or wish for)
Here are a few of mine, which are actually types of Indulgences.

Diseased Indulgence:
Reading the Twilight series over and over and over again. Why? because I have no money to buy another book to read.

Then go to the library.
Let's see you take three kids to the library and tell them they have to stand there with you while you find a book. Good Luck with that one.

I like the book, I can't help it. The movies, nah, after seeing each one 10 times you realize how horrible the acting is. So at this point, I watch them to see Billy Burke. (another indulgence)

What is it that I like about them? I don't know, I think it is a disease and if anyone has a pill to cure it, let me know. I have always read vampire stories (yes there were good vampire stories around before Twilight and all the teen vamp stuff). The Vampire Lestat was the first one I ever read, I was attracted to the red cover with bad type design. I was in 6th grade and I couldn't put the book down...I have read that one so many times the book actually fell apart.

Like I said it is a disease.

Desired Indulgence:
I love it when I am driving down the road and see a Dodge Charger, yes the new ones. I am not a car person, but if that car was a man, I would sleep with him. It will not fit my family, but I don't care, I want it. (or a chrysler 300, which I actually got to drive in Philly. That bad boy is a TANK!) It is beautiful and sleek and has a taste of old fashioned car design in it. Desire.

Those who are out there reading my babble, what are your indulgences? Give me some good ones that make mine not seem so bad. (Especially that Twilight one.)

The big hairy spider went for a ride

I walk out to my car today after class, get in, throw my stuff in the seat next to me and pick up the phone to call Rick so he knows I am on my way home. That is when it happens. I see a slight movement out of the corner of my eye, and there it sits, a large hairy spider, just staring at me. Me, being the arachnophobe, starts freaking out, looking for anything I can use to smash it. This thing is huge!! I am screaming into the phone for help and sensing that I am going to be attacked at any second. I reach down for a book that is close at hand and the spider goes into a vent in my dash. I don't know how it fit, but it slid right in there and disappeared. I began slamming the book into the line he went into and that is when the book was ripped out of my hands and thrown to the back of the car. The spider slowly came out from the vent, got into my purse and came out with paper and a pen. I think this spider must have escaped from a lab or something because it then proceeded to wr

the color yellow

I LOVE the color yellow. It is sunshine, happiness, bright, and fun. For the past couple of weeks I have been updating my kitchen. Painting the cabinets and walls and re-doing the counter tops. The color scheme I picked is yellow, black and cream. Today was the day I finally got to paint the walls with the "applesauce" color I picked. YEE..OWZA. I have never put a color on my walls that made me doubt my sense of design and decision making in my home. This color is doing that to me. I love yellow, but is it right for my walls? I am unsure. I need to place the second coat on and live with it. Beginning to think I should have picked a very light warm grey color instead. Yellow is definitely Yellow...

mommy daughter mope time

So today is Friday. It is the day I have to rush out the door with Kadence and Jakob so that Jakob can go to zoo class. (I live an hour away from the zoo and he has to be there by 9.) Well, this morning everyone was tired and didn't want to get up, we have been getting over being sick. I have 10 minutes to get out the door and Rick decides to make pancakes for Jakob. But...we make it anyway. Jakob off to class, Krischan at school, and Mom and daughter together by ourselves. Let's go buy shoes. Which I did...for her. I can't buy shoes when someone is with me, kids or adults. Shopping for shoes is like picking out a good book, it takes time and you can't do it when you have a little one with you, or big one with you taking up any of your attention. Although, I do enjoy buying Kadence shoes, so it isn't too much of a big deal. Do I really need a new pair of shoes anyway? Hah!(big bellowing laugh while I throw my head back) who am I kidding, of course I do, even if
