Misc Thoughts for a Saturday

I HATE cleaning. HATE IT!!! Some chores I like more than others - - for example, Laundry and Dishes. but Vaccuming? Bathrooms? NO THANK YOU!

Creepy Crawly things are attacking me this morning. So far, at least 2 random bugs (the same type, but lots more legs than a spider and less robust - - like a mix between a daddy long legs and a spider, but with more legs than either).... And then worms/bugs under the corn we haven't eaten. EEWW!!

I shouldn't "should" - - but the Dogs finally got a long overdue walk this morning. I wish I could find the motivation to get my butt outside and walk them more often! It's good for all of us.

I like Manicures okay - but I love a good pedicure! Especially the exfoliation, soaking, and massage... However, anything orangey really isn't my color.

One day this week, I was grumpy for no reason in particular.

I've been in bed by 9pm almost every day this week.

My administrative support person celebrated 30 years with the company this week. She's awesome - - and I should take more time to appreciate her, and other people who do/say nice things. It's amazing how a simple message from a friend - perhaps one I don't talk to often - can really lift my spirits. Whether it's a comment on facebook about "I didn't know you were expecting" or a big and exciting announcement, I really cherish the friendships I have - - now, and over the years. I enjoy being able to keep connected with some old high school friends on Facebook. I enjoy making new friends and getting to know people better in our new town. I also enjoy and truly cherish those awesome, one-of-a-kind friendships with those who have supported me for so long. Anyhow - I need to take more time out to appreciate those people. From my hubby - to my family - to people I've met once (and some I've never met), and everyone in-between.... I think the core of who we are requires that foundation of people who love and support us.

I suppose that is enough babble for one day. In retrospect, regarding the name of this blog, I'm surprised I didn't put "babble" in the title somehow... I guess that just doesn't start with an S.
