all of which i am not fond of anymore for the obvious reasons...here are a few.
the dentist...why do dentists insist on talking to you when they know you can't respond b/c you have all kinds of foreign objects in your mouth, is beyond me. today i sounded similiar to someone who was playing "fuzzy bunny" with a bunch of marshmellows stuffed in my mouth while i answered questions about my job, my family and what i like to do. all along i couldn't stop thinking to myself SOMEONE MAKE IT STOP-PLEASE! of course a good dentist appointment is not complete without finding out that yet, another tooth needs filled. ok, 5- but who's counting?
house chores were much more fun when i had hired ALL CLEAN in jacksonville. i miss them more than i miss smithfields. i can't believe i just said that out loud, but i am desperate. i hate cleaning bathrooms that much! i am not the one peeing on the seat, why do i have to clean it- for real?
as for potty training i am starting to wonder who is training who here. we have definitely made absolutely no progress in over a week. we get on the toilet with all good intentions but NOTHING...absolutely nothing. before when i didn't care about potty training (or at least pretended not to care) ally pee-pee'd and even poopied in there, now that i feel the wrath of potty training breathing down my neck - NO CAN DO. i am not giving up that easily - do you hear me??? i don't really know who i am talking to - maybe the wretched potty gods who are playing this funny little game with me. joke's over - can we just get a pee or a poop already? holla!
and last but certainly not least, furniture shopping. i have spent countless minutes, hours and days trying to figure out when to transition ally from crib to bed. not only when, but how as well. i have come to the conclusion that we will need to buy those security attachments, so that ally doesn't fall out of bed, or feel the need to get up in the middle of night and bug me (oops, my mind ran away from me there). anyways, we have been looking around and i am perplexed. do i buy ally children's furniture (small to scale) or just go right to the regular adult furniture that she will evenutally be growing into? i know, i know...there are people in third world countries starving and such, but this is quite the decision for me latley. i spent at least 1-2 hours today searching and comparing prices...this is how i know that i need to have a full time job at ALL times, or i will find the most meaningless crap to think about, and ponder over!
i guess i could take out a want ad for help and this is what it might read: Desperately seeking someone to clean my house, potty train my daughter and do all my meaningless thinking for a week while i blog away.
any takers?

I am not pushing the potty training yet Michelle. A lot of people say to just gradually ease them into it and maybe acting like you don't care is the key :-) I am cracking up over your last comment about the want ad too!! By the way, I wish that we had a YMCA down here and it sounds like yours is really good! (Of course with Big Ben there it could be falling to the ground and I would say that!)
i am pretty laid back about the potty training thing, but am a bit concerned that she has yet, to do it the potty. this morning we got on the potty and did the whole 9 yards with wiping and flushing and then she ran off to see keith and pee'd on the floor. she was more upset about it that i was. i guess she hasn't quite got the whole - urge to pee in the potty thing yet. i am sure she will come around.
as for the ymca, i love it. i have to say, i have never been a member of one, so this is my first time too and this particular one has definitely sold me :)
