WEEDS!

So, to my delight? it was yard work day. Chad took the mowing and trimming, I took the weeding and raking. Now while it might sound pretty easy, let me tell you a couple of things. 1. It felt like 100 degrees while I was bent over in the sun (even though I think it was only 80) 2. Our yard is a world class breeding ground for weeds of all shapes and sizes (little "cute" green ones that almost seem endless and pointless, huge bunches of tall grain looking ones, and lastly hard branch-like sticks in the ground that at one point could have been little trees but no matter how hard you pull these stick ones always win!) I'm not even taking any pictures just yet, or maybe I should do a before and after- k maybe I will put up a picture but anyway it's a work in progress.

My friend Ashley just "tagged" me to write wierd things about myself that no one would know so here goes:
-I dislike univited kids playing in my yard, I know that sounds really mean but the neighboorhood kids in my cul-de-sac are a lot older and more wild than I would like.
-I ate like 2 lbs. of strawberries today, I have a sickness where I can't let any food go bad and since these strawberries weren't eaten up by my family I devoured them.

-I could shop for Lily everyday, but when it comes to myself I can not do it (clothes I mean)-I've really tried to figure this one out and I still haven't, but maybe it has something to do with her looking cute in everything and me, well not so much.
-I always get really excited about stuff and then after I do it so much I get sick of it (i.e. tivo, garage sales, ebay, having a cleaning system for my house, cooking, working out, dream dinners, etc.)
-I think I'm a little paranoid about thinking I might be pregnant. Not that it would be a bad thing, I'm just a big planner, so having a baby unexpectedly would definately throw me for a loop, I'm not saying it wouldn't be fun-I mean I would have nine months to get ready I guess.
-I've always been pretty confident in myself- don't ask me why ( I got braces late, didn't kiss a boy until I was 17, am horrible at sports other than dancing, am not really funny, and can't really do anything extraordinarily well) but from the time I was little I just thought I was a pretty neat person. At three I got up in front of everyone in a cable car in San Fransisco and started belting out "I left my heart in San Fransisco". I guess we are just born with certain feelings about ourselves.
-I collect fortunes from fortune cookies.
