So, this morning, so far, I have accomplished nothing. I sit here at the computer at 11:00 AM in my pajamas reading blogs, looking at pictures, and just wasting time. I have been blogging now for over 3 years. Through those years I have posted several different times with different subjects, photos, thoughts, etc. Lately, I am just not feeling it. I really enjoy stalking various people through their blogs, but I just don't want to stalk mine anymore. It is not just blogging either. I am not in the mood to do much except sit on my butt and watch the clock waiting for Stephen to come home from work. Stephen keeps wanting me to write about different experiences I have had lately: I changed that alternator in our van. I finally made the perfect chocolate cake, well not perfect but pretty damn good. Our children's latest attempt to drive my soul into the fortress of hell. The list goes on but really, I'm just not feeling it. Normally I could go on and on about some useless thing. Like the fact that 90% of the population has an "innie" belly button. Sorry Angelica, I always knew you were weird. But, I just don't feel it. I don't feel like me. What's up with that?

Just not feeling it

Why do you always have to drag me into it? Just kidding. Hey if you want to do something let me know. I could meet you in Provo and go shopping some time. I think sometimes we all kind of get in funks. Wouldn't that be nice if you could be one of those people that was just happy and peppy? (Is that a word, if so is that how you would spell it?) If you were, I would probably smack ya! Go eat some chocolate cake and give that baby girl a kiss! :)
If it makes you feel any better, and it might not but it is after 1 in the afternoon and I am sitting here in my pajamas looking at blogs with no intentions of getting ready anytime soon! I hear you when all you want is your hubby home because thats all I think about all day and then when he does come home sometimes I wondered why I was wishing that!!! Anyway I am making my blog private sometime soon and would like to invite you if you want to look at it still so email me your email and I will! If you're ever over this way come visit!

Your blog is one of my favorites to read because you say it how it is and you are SO creative! I think you should be a writer! I love you and I think you are the best and you better be likin yourself right now, especially if you are accomplishing all those great things that Stephen wants you to mention ;) But it is weird because there are those days when I sit on my computer and blog or whatever and I am frozen doing it and I know I should get off the computer but I don't and then I feel horrible. You're the best!

We all love reading your blog. I know what you mean when you just are not feelin it though... Maybe you should come to E-town and have dinner or something, that would give you something to blog about. Good old memories of this apt, garrison managment, your neighbor that yelled at her kids more than you do (that would be me) and the list goes on. Im sure it would be an amusing night for all of us to take a step back in time. Im personally kind of sick of most of the people around here so it would be nice for me to live in the good old days for just one night. Think about it.... OK good your coming, just call and let me know which night:) Do you prefer fajita's, Teriyaki Chicken, Chicken and Brocolli your choice whatever you want! Oh and bring the family too... Oh and can I just say Im sick of fake people... I cant blog about it because they are the ones who read my blog, and they would know I was talking about them...Thats why I like you, cause your not fake, and you dont get ready every day(or do you now)?I hate that the people around me look at me funny for wearing sweat(SP) 6 out of the 7 days of the week. For some reason people around here get dressed, and shower, and put make-up on EVERYDAY. It makes me look bad, I liked it when you lived here!!! Glad I got that of my chest.
Yeah, you need a getaway! :) No, I think everyone gets into ruts like that...if it makes you feel any better, you basically described my last entire week (minus doctor's visits!). :) You SHOULD blog about the impressive things you've done...alternator? Seriously impressive! How about mothering three kids??? VERY impressive! :) But, if you do choose to blog about innies vs. outties, I would love to be interviewed, as I am a recent "convert" to the outtie tribe! :)
Yep, your not the only one it's 2:45pm and here I am in my p.j's (granted I have a sick 3 year old and Husband, and haven't felt that perky myself, but here I am not being that productive either. I should continue unpacking and swamping through my house, but not feeling it.
Keep your chin up girlie! you have an awesome blog and usually are like the army and "get more done before noon than most people do all day!" you have had a lot of changes lately and I agree you need a getaway! Just you and Stepho! -And don't forget- how wonderful your internal plumbing has felt lately as well. love ya!
Lyddee--
I've completely had it with you. You don't write, you don't call. Actually, I really need to hear from you. Would you please call me? In case you forgot, 283-4417. I'm really serious this time.
Love your stinking guts,
Katie
Strickland Party of Six: You're right. I can always find something humorous about other peoples lives. I think I am going to take you up on that. The biggest problem is I live in a smile town. Things always come back around. Mmmm maybe a trip is in order. Oh btw, thanks for the invite.
Angelica (Sorry I'm still not a "Gel" girl, I like your full name better) Thanks for the offer, I really might take you up on that.
Holly - That does make me feel better. Misery loves company you know. Thanks for the invite.
Lisa - I appreciate the applause, it is really not warranted, but thanks.
Brookie - I wouldn't exactly call what I have been doing lately "Mothering." I have been keeping my children alive. That's all. Sometimes bathed, but not much more. Dora the Explorer is raising Remi right now, and sometimes Spongebob Pantalones.
Myrna- Sick family :( No fun. For the record, I do not get anything done anymore. That girl died with the full time job!
Katie- I love you!
Why is it that my best friend never called me by my nickname? Kind of funny. I guess it just never felt right. Doesn't bug me at all though. Seriously call me and let's go shopping or to lunch. Gotta meet halfway though cuz it's pretty far. Last minute or whatever! I am usually doing nothing.
Is this the same Lydia that dissected a cadaver with me at good ol' Snow College? If so, add me to your list cuz I'm adding you to mine! Glad to catch up on you and yours!
-Emily (Day) Ryan
Hey...how are you? Wow, it's been a long time. Glad you found my blog. where are you guys living these days?? How many kids do you have now? I think the last time I saw you, you were pregnant with your first.
Sorry, you have to keep blogging your honesty and straight forwardness about life make me realize that I am not alone or completely insane. I am able to get my Hintze fix, like when we could vent during our frigid morning walks at 5:30 in the morning. Sorry your blog isn't going anywhere!
