In an effort to capitalize on the positive...

I don't generally make new year's resolutions, and this is not what this is... not really, but I've decided to take note of the positive things about our endless wait for word from China. So, to that end here are a few of the things i have enjoyed this year that i won't be able to enjoy once we have our daughter... 1) last night I sat my butt in my favorite chair and read Tori Spellings' trashy memoir cover to cover, uninterrupted no less. And it was Goooooood! 2) This past Saturday while Paul lay in a Nyquil induced coma I watched Bravo's marathon of The Real Housewives of New York, ALLLLL day! And it was gooooood! 3) Tonight, because I'm tired and he's tired and simply because we can, I'm going to our favorite Sushi restaurant for dinner. Spicy tuna roll here I come! 4) and sometime in February we're getting away for a few days just by ourselves. You've got to accentuate the positive.... you know the rest of the song! :)

Sooooo true! You really forget to appreciate those things until they are no longer possible (showering/using the bathroom UNINTERRUPTED, 6PM bedtime after a LONG day at work, shopping all day JUST FOR YOURSELF and JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN, and most of all...complete and total silence when you want it). It's funny, b/c I was thinking of writing a post about all the things I can NO longer do (at least not right now), but it seemed like it would come across a little negatively. Instead, I think I'll stick with a "Things Look Different Now" and comment on the fact that sippy cups have literally taken over my cupboards!
On a side note....the Tori Spelling bio ROCKED!! Makes you feel better about your own parents! Candy is CRAZY!! (or misunderstood LOL) ")
