I'm sick. I hate being sick. I was just sick, and now I'm sick again. I hate Bakersfield for making me sick. I hate my body for being a wuss. I've got a sinus infection again. I just finished up my antibiotics for one about 4 days ago, but I guess it wasn't enough to actually get rid of it. Luckily I've got a doctor's appointment on Monday to talk to him about my anxiety issues, I'll just get a prescription for some more meds too. I just need to make it through the weekend and find a sinus medication that won't make me crazy or sleepy. 7 is going to be out of town and I don't want to go psycho on the kids.

Ok folks, here it is! The Official "What Kayla Wants for Christmas" List. I know, I know, I usually don't ask for anything, but this year it's different. I finally got a little of that gimme gimme Christmas greed in me. So to help all of my fans and admirers buy me something I will actually like, I put together this little list.

1. Pajamas: I got some really awesome Fashion Bug jammies last year for my birthday. They are just made of regular old t-shirt material, but are super cute and girly. They are pink, with little white polka dots and a stylized black cat on them. The pants have the banded bottoms, like thermals and the top is just basically a long sleeve t-shirt.

2. A new pair of Converse high tops. The pair I have were bought for me by 7 when we were dating. I have red, I'd like a pair with like pink and black or a lime green pair. That'd be awesome.

3. Jimmy Dean Sausage sandwiches. You know, the type that you get from catering trucks. They have them at Sam's Club.

4. A gym membership at the local 24 hour fitness. I am tried of being a fat girl. I wanna be a chunky girl with muscles and my waist back. Two C-sections and an ovarian cyst removal surgery have left my stomach muscles a mess. I want to be able to run around with my kids.

5. The Muppet Show on DVD.

6. Dove dark chocolate Promises. My one candy vice. I eat them one a day until they are gone, letting them melt and trying my best to not bite them.

7. A box of Bic Click Stix pens. I love those damn things.

8. The diamond from my engagement ring placed in a new, non-slashing, non-wiggly setting.

9. Sterling silver hoop earrings for everyday wear. I have sensitive ears so they have to be sterling silver.

10. Sterling silver earrings for fancy wear.

New Addition: 11. A full size electric blanket. That way I can be warm when 7 has the windows open and the fans running in the dead of winter without having to use 5 blankets.

12. A dust buster! Those things are awesome!

This list may keep growing if I find anything else that piques my interest. Remember to get your gifts in the mail early so I'm not dissapointed come Christmas morning!
Oh, and thanks to Jagular and 7, who both still check my site everyday to see if I have blogged something. I can't keep letting them down.
I had a birthday yesterday. I turned 30. I reflected on the fact that my twenties were over and I wondered if I had really spent them the best way I could. I didn't reach any professional goals. I surely didn't reach any financial goals. I didn't take very good care of my health, mental or physical. What I did do though, is have two awesome kids completely by accident. Both kids were a suprise, birth-control-odds-overcoming blessing. I reflect on how lucky I was to end up with the monkies I have. They are good, caring, sweet, empathetic, helpful, well-behaved, intelligent, funny kids. And damn good looking to boot. My very handsome husband contributed some good genes there. Everything else, I'll take credit for. So all in all, I guess I spent my twenties in a pretty good way. I met and married 7, apparently had way too much sex and ended up with two wonderful babies, got to be with them almost every day since they were born, and moved into my third decade without a major freak out. I can honestly say I think I am a great mom. I am a wonderful wife and a good person. That's way more than I was ever able to say about myself before. Hopefully my thirties will be full of more good things.

Since I never blog here anymore, does anyone ever check it?
I need a topic and can't think of one.
Someone ask me a question... anything... I'll answer it.
