Bad idea jeans

Used my tax refund to get the living room repainted and new floors in the kitchen. Such a grown-up, no? But I didn't think it through. First up: painting. All the furniture is currently in the kitchen, making it basically unusable. The TVs are off because they had to unplug the main TV (although I drag it back in and set it back up every night because what am I, Amish?). The baby (and the rest of us) are basically trapped in the playroom. And I don't think they will be done until Monday. Le sigh.

Nail file, stat!

I have been seeing so many celebrity mom pics lately with babies and scary-long nails. Personally my nails are down to the nub - I am always rubbing on the baby, tickling her, etc. and would hate to scratch her (she scratches herself enough with her OWN nails, thanks).

Exhibit A:

Yow!

So tempting

I never watched Temptation Island before, but for some reason this time around I was hooked - who ARE these couples and WHY would they be willing to go on this show (aside from the obvious month in Hawaii)?? Last night was the finale, and (spoiler alert) only one couple made it out alive (aka still together). Not surprised. I WAS surprised that one guy got engaged to his "temptress" just 6 months after filming though...

Takes a village

I truly have the nicest neighbors. The man who lives next door had a stroke about a year ago, but he LOVES Georgie and is always bringing her gifts. He told me last weekend he wants to split the cost of her big girl bed. (I will not allow this, but what a kind offer!) Last night he and his wife called us over and they had bought Georgie yet another massive present, which they bought while buying a present for their ACTUAL grandchild's birthday. Plus a Ray Charles CD ("Georgia on my mind"). Say it with me: awwwww.

UCF!

What. A. Game. UCF v Duke - I really thought UCF had it at the end. I was yelling and screaming and somehow Georgie wasn't crying - she's a true bball baby.

I was thinking about how many brackets (mine included) would have busted, but how freaking worth it it would have been...ah well. We'll just have to beat them in the final.

Hahahaha

Scaramouche, scaramouche will you do the fandango

Finally watched Bohemian Rhapsody a few weeks ago - so good! Well-deserved Oscar for sho. Plus it made me want to listen to Queen for a few days straight. YASSSS QUEEN

Cough

So....turns out my "sexy voice" was strep throat. I haven't had strep since I was like 10, but okay. And my mom has a sinus infection and Georgie has a cough. We are one giant hot mess. On meds.
