It's been a while, blog

I don't even remember what my last post was about. Probably about feeling gross and pregnant. The feeling not-so-great comes and goes, mostly I'm just tired now.

Josh has started spring term courses, and is taking two rather difficult Economics courses to get started on his Masters of Accountancy. He says he's sick of school, but I think he's just frustrated that he's having to get into a new groove with different teachers, and a very different style from the super structured Junior Core classes he's had for the last eight months.

We've eaten out too much, but at least I've gotten back into green smoothies again. Even Guy enjoys his :-) I take the valve out of his sippy cup so he can suck it down just like Mama.

I got my hair cut. I know I promised you a picture, Shauna, but I keep forgetting when Josh is around to take one. Maybe I'll have to do the mega-long-arm self-picture-taking trick. I loved the salon I went to. They give free scalp massages, and a wash, cut, and style was only $29. Can you believe that? And everyone was very professional. And I love my haircut. It's pretty simple, just past my shoulders with some nice layers, but it looks so much cleaner than my grown-out-mullet from the bad haircut I had more than two years ago. Yeah. That long. I know. Scary, huh?

I went to the Utah Valley Women's Expo today, and it was a ton of fun. I went with three of my good friends, and none of us had children with us! It was fun looking at the booths, seeing what people had to sell, trying samples of things, and laughing a lot. I had my blood sugar tested (normal), tried out lotions and potions of various kinds, entered to win a lot of drawings, and realized that I'd really, REALLY like to try one of those DreamDinners kind of places. You know, where you show up and assemble the meals and take them home. Within 2 hours you have 72 servings of food, ready to cook.

All in all, life is going well. We're getting ready to head to Philadelphia at the end of June, trying to decide whether or not we want to be Community Aides when we get back, and oh, yeah--Josh joined the Air Force Reserve.

Bit of a bombshell? He's always felt compelled to serve in the armed forces, and he found a way to do it without interfering with his school plans. It does mean he'll be taking winter semester off from school to go train for 14 weeks or so.

Which will leave me with a 2-year-old and a 2-month-old by myself. Hey, sis--want some company for a few months?
