My internet is running slow tonight so I'm going to keep this short. It's actually going slow because I'm uploading pics to a photo archiving website, so it's using all the juice!
Gonna revamp our bathroom tomorrow, super stoked.
Also considering doing away with this blog. I don't want to, but the point of what I started it for has become lost and most nights I hate that I have to get on and write. So I dunno, gonna sleep on it a few more nights before I decide.

Welcome to my blog! You might be thinking, "365 Lemontinis? Is this a drinking game blog?" Nah. Just my upgraded concept of making lemonade when life hands you lemons. (Let's face it Lemontinis are much more exciting than plain ol' lemonade! And only if you are of age mind, I don't endorse underage drinking!!) I hope this will be a fun, creative outlet for me and that anyone reading it gets a kick out of it too. My "Maiden" post was on New Years Eve 2011 and it explains my motivation for this blog (in rather great detail, sorry.) I'll be writing one post a day for the duration of 2012, squeezing the deliciousness out of life even when it's tough.
Thanks for reading!

nothing great tonight, you may as well not even read this post
I don't want to write in my blog tonight. But I have to. Because I was stupid and committed myself to a 365 day posting schedule.
So I'm on here to tell you I'm not writing, but I'm going to bed to read Hunger Games (I'm in the middle of my second go, it's AMAZING).
I know my blogs are horrifyingly boring as of late. I hope I can make up for it soon.
Apologies, goodnight.

grumpy
I'm grumpy tonight so I'm going to keep this short. I fell down the stairs last night while carrying my cat to put him out. We have hardwood floors and I slipped and fell straight back onto my forearms and tailbone. I had a terrible nights sleep after that and have been in livid pain all day today. I can't seem to type one sentence on my computer or my phone without botching the spelling and grammar, frustrating the hell out of me. I've seen several people quote Kayne (Imma let you finish) in less than 24 hours....really? and I'm tired of Facebook telling me that one of my friends likes one of their friends (not a mutual friend, someone I don't know) photos. UGH. All I want to do is take a hot shower but I can't because I have no energy to hold myself up for more than 5 minutes at a time and I can't take a bath because of the open sore on my tailbone from where I hit the bottom step.
I just want to sleep for several days, uninterrupted, to attempt to recover and rest and get away from EVERYTHING. But that's not going to happen and that thought makes me even grumpier, THEN I see the dishes piled in the sink at 10:45pm, after this day, and that takes me from grumpier to pissed! Not only can I not take a shower, I'm doing dishes at damn near 11pm. If a stay at home wife/mom falls, or gets sick or has a migraine, she doesn't get a break. She simply has to continue to do all the domestic crap as usual while she's sore from the fall, blowing her nose or going blind in her left eye from a migraine.
So for the first time, I think I really need to provide some lemonade on here since it's been a pretty shitty day. My husband brought home my favorite meal from Panera tonight. I was craving comfort food really badly, the stress of the trauma and the pain left me feeling drained and like I'd never be cheerful again, so I thought eating something warm and savory would help recover at least that much. And it did help to boost my emotional state just a bit. I still hurt like hell, but dinner was good and I had some ice cream as well while we watched Survivor. That and the fact that my daughter for the most part played independently (ok she watched tv for a few hours), and that my fall wasn't more severe (it could have been for sure, I know I lucked out) are my lemonade's for the day.

kinda cute
convo in the car today with 4 year old
"Ooooh look at all the flowers mommy."
"I know, I see."
"There's a whole bunch. All the colors."
"Mmm hmmm."
"What is this place mommy?"
"Well it's called a cemetery, my love."
"There people in there?"
"Well....sort of....."
"Oooooh GOSSEEEEEEZZZZZ!!"
Ahhh saved by geese. The "that's where we put our dead," convo will wait another day.

boo
So apparently the moon was in the southern house and jupiter aligned with mars (not kidding, ok well, slightly kidding, I stumbled upon a website that claimed it was the case) early this morning (1240ish am) and I guess if you knew about it, you could set your broom on it's bristles and it would stand up on it's own. Saw a pic from a girlfriend on Facebook that confirms. I'm pissed I missed out on this. Would have LOVED to try.
Oh well. Guess this means it's the dawning of the Age of Aquarius, which if you read up about it, as your Auntie Becks has, you might find it VERY interesting. ~~shrugs~~
