Just plain tuckered out...

I didn't get much sleep last night...

Travis and I play softball for my work and we had a double header. We got home late and the boys were with Grandpa. We got them into bed around 10pm. I got into bed around 10:30, fell asleep pretty quickly. We are working on night training Logan. He sleeps so hard that he doesn't know that he pees in his sleep. Well last night sometime between 10 and 1am he had an accident.

Travis and I get up and change his sheets after Travis went in there to take him to the bathroom (usually done around 12:30 every night). I go back to bed and am wide awake. I toss and turn. Around 3am Cole starts crying. I go and check on him. Not sure what is wrong. Must have had a bad dream because he is still asleep. I cover him back up and go back to bed. Still wide awake. Stevie starts scratching and shaking his head. His collar is driving me CRAZY!! I go and take it off him.

Finally around 5am I fall asleep. Well 6am my alarm goes off and here I am...

Insomnia is no fun.... I hope I can make it through the day.

The short end of the stick...

Why does it always feel like Travis and I are on the losing end?

No matter what we do or how hard we try, we just can never be on top. We are both down the dumps about our jobs right now. He just isn't bringing the money and I am not getting respect I deserve.

I have been to a couple of National Conferences in the couple of months and all these other institutions see how good I am at what I do, but my own place of employment doesn't see it...

Travis is just stuck in a rut. He had to move branches and is now at one that sees less traffic which in turn means less transactions... NOT GOOD FOR US...

With the price of everything going up, we are barely making ends meet and life is just really frustrating. Why do the rich get richer and we are stuck just paying more bills???

Why?

Ok so every morning I have this horrible craving for Sonic's Vanilla Diet Coke and tater tots. This morning I caved... Wish I hadn't... This is the damaged that ensued...





Ok so I know that doesn't look too terrible but we really don't have the $500 deductible right now to cover this. We just had to put a new roof on the house, thanks to the recent hail storms and Travis just switched branches at the bank and it is SUPER slow. We are POOR!!!!! And that is putting it nicely!

Why oh why did I have to get that stupid Diet Coke today???

So I have always been the girl who doesn't like pink. But did any one else notice that my blog it now... PINK!!! GASP!!!! But who doesn't love argyle? And I was too tired and crossed from scrolling through all the sites. I really wanted it in blue but oh well... I had to loose my cool name and my picture slide show. The price you pray for an upgrade. But I think it looks pretty darn good... Thanks Erin P for the inspiration!

Now onto why I really posted today... I had the time of my life Saturday night. Well really it was all day Saturday. My maid of honor, Shelby is getting married in September and her bachelorette party was Saturday. Her matron of honor, her sister and a couple of her other friends through an all day shin dig that started out on Lake Grapevine with a party barge. We were on the boat from 10-2. It was like I was single and carefree again. Floating the water, catching some rays. Just chatting with girls not worrying about is this kid drowning, does this kid have on enough suncreen. The only person I had to worry about who had on enough sunscreen was me, I missed one place, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!.

That evening we went to the Matron of Honors house for a Passion Party and a lingerie shower. That was so much fun. I didn't buy anything but it was fun watching Shelby get all embarressed by her mom and aunt when the PP consultant pulled out the novelty items!

After the PP Shelby opened her lingerie. We played a game that I had never seen but thought was such a cute idea. As Shelby opened each piece we as a group named the item. If the nighty was yellow, then say we named it Banana Sundae, a tag was put on the outfit and written down on sheet of paper with the names of all the other outfits and on the honeymoon, Shelby's new husband, Mark would take the "menu" and choose what his beautiful bride would wear to bed based on the options the paper without getting to see them.

Such a cute idea! We had a fun time trying to think of names for all the outfits! I got home at 11:30pm that night! It was fun just hanging out and being carefree!!
