25 thoughts as they pop into my head

Just 'cuz I can:

1. My butt hurts. I have had this same office chair since at least high school if not junior high. I deserve a new chair.
2. I love the lamp sitting on my desk. It was my great grandmother's, who I called 'Granny'. I never got to know her well as she was in the hospital most of my life before she died. But I loved her especially because she meant so much to my dad. Love how he loves people so deeply and cares enough to be there for family.
3. I can't believe Isaac is 18 weeks old already. Crazy.
4. I wish I was smaller and sporty instead of larger and lazy. What else is new?
5. My favourite TV shows now are The Office, Parks & Recreation, Outsourced mostly for the awesome true-to-life head bobs (at least, they totally did that in India's neighbouring country Sri Lanka) and The Amazing Race.
6. I still love movie night dates with my amazing hubby. Nothing like pizza, pop, comfortably lounging on the couch watching a funny flick or awesome action movie
7. My pop of choice these days is root beer.
8. I had a dream last night that I was trying to buy a plastic lunch box full of sushi for my friend Becky and was trying to decide if I should since it might not taste so fresh by the time I got it to her. The lunch box was bright primary colours and was busted open.
9. I had a dream the other night that Justin was frustrated at Isaac for crying. Woke up thinking it was real only to find my hubby sleeping peacefully next to me and Isaac sound asleep in his crib.
10. I call myself 'Loreny beanie' sometimes when I'm talking to myself.
11. I started attending a Moms group at our church. I've only been a few times and already am enjoying it immensely.
12. I'm writing this blog post instead of writing POC. Yup, that's still going on too.
13. 25 things are hard to come up with. Apparently thoughts don't pop into my head as fast as I thought they would...
14. I have a tealight holder that Nancy painted and used to hang at Salty Shack. I really miss that place, and often think of that period in our life. I will never forget some of life's most perfect moments spent when it was just me and Justin and Nancy and Colin at that special part of heaven on earth.
15. I will also never forget the bats, spiders, mice, smell of musty cabin inside when we hadn't been there in awhile and the shock of cold water when I jumped in.
16. Speaking of cabins, can't wait to get up to Purden again. Going there for my 30th birthday this year - yip yip hooray!
17. Not as freaked out about turning 30 as I thought. Possibly because I feel more alive now than I have ever, with the amount of bubbly happy emotions always spilling out of me these days. I've become a gushing mushy momma, and I love every moment of it.
18. I need to eat more fibre. This is the problem a 60 year old should have, not a 29 year old. But that's OK.
19. I miss traveling. I think when POC is done, me and Justin and our babe have to pack up and drive somewhere new, if only for a few days.
20. I adore our home. I love its functionality, its location and the fact that it will always be the place I brought my baby home from the hospital to.
21. Correct English dictates you do not end a sentence with 'to'.
22. My poor cat is severely neglected now. I feel badly for him, but not enough to pay him attention. My emotional energy is spent after Isaac and Justin.
23. We had a picnic dinner tonight even though it was rainy outside. Shake 'n bake chicken, macaroni salad and deviled eggs. Summer is just around the corner : )
24. So close to the end of my 25 things now.
25. I'm tired. Good night.
