Weirdness.......

Fashionista headed to school 
For the first time in 2 plus years my happy ass went grocery shopping without GG and let me tell you even though it was weird and kinda felt like I was missing my right arm I got through the store 45 minutes quicker  than usual.  I actually saved money because I got to use the coupons I clipped PLUS I didn't just grab whatever was on the shelf in order to get out of the store as quickly as possible before GG decides she no longer wants to sit in the cart and anyone with a toddler knows exactly what I mean.  I am a very detailed grocery shopper as you can tell from the below pic. I compile my menu list the week before and get everything super organized per isle. Yes I am a big old weirdo and I am good with that. 

GG is loving preschool girl cannot wait to get their in the mornings. She is only going 3 days a week mid morning but so far she is kicking ass and taking names. The only issue we were having is she is not eating her lunch but yesterday I was told she made did it so we are good. You know what I thought I would have all this super free time once GG started part time preschool {literally have a list of projects  wanna do} but in fact it really is not the case. I try and work out every morning and when I am done with that between the errands, walking dogs, washing laundry and all the other crap that comes along with being a SAHB {stay at home bitch}it is time for me to get back in the car and pick the little one up. I did get one project completed yesterday and that was to finally get rid of the BUTT ugly blue El Torrito restaurant tile the previous owner placed in our master bedroom bay window seat I have an awesome view but I never sit there because the tile made me want to puke...like really WTF were they thinking. It has been an eye sore since we moved in I just hid it really well with decorative pillows. Busted out the tiles {felt so good} then we covered with a sheet of plywood, sanded the f*cker and painted it a nice white. I am having the huge window pillow reupholstered and then we are good to go. I mean really check out the fugly tile.

So much better the tiles hideous 
 Next week I am about to get rid of some outside gross ass rocks in the back of the house we don't have a backyard {hello city living} but I do have miles of trees behind our house. We have this small patch of  rocky area in the back that I can fence in and add some fake nice grass to it so when my daughter is on her playroom she can open up the back door and have an extra deck/yard area to her playroom. I also want to plant some flowers in the back to brighten int up. Yep I am turning into a regular Stepford wife um um.

I was always amazed how much I could get done during preschool hours if I just went straight home and got to it!

Call it a hunch, but I don't see Stepford in your future.

Ging grocery shopping sans toddler is like a tropical vacation.

Haha! My hubs helped his mate tile his entire bathroom in that blue tile a few years back! They did a brick effect, but it was still very dark and very blue - and well very bachelor-esque!!

i know i totally thought i would have extra time to do stuff also with cameron in preschool. i am able to get errands done a little easier with only only 2 kids and not 3. i wish i was as organized as you when it comes to grocery shopping....you should write a post just on that one day:)

I absolutely have missed the hell out of you! Been crazy and have had a hard time blogging and reading.

SO glad you got rid of that tile!

Getting caught up with the blog. :)
