it's that time again, drill weekend. i could write an entire novel of complaints on how much i hate having brandon away but instead i thought i would make a list of things that are okay about it.
1. i get the entire bed to myself. i get his comfy pillow, my giant comforter, and the ENTIRE, BED, TO, MYSELF.
2. i get to eat whatever i want for dinner, i don't have to prepare a giant meal and if i'm lucky brandon's mom comes and sleeps over for the weekend and we eat out like kings.
3. i get in this weird cleaning mode when brandon is gone, and things get DONE.
4. i get to live in my jammies (i kind of do this anyways, but lately i've been making more of an effort...)
5. i play the music i like when i like.
6. i watch disney movies during dinner
7. i decide to take up the piano again
8. i lock the doors five hundred times
8.5 i go to bed at nine pm
9. i write awesome poetry that is totally depressing
10. i start ten different sewing projects
11. i can't think of anything else awesome the rest just sucks.
oh drill weekend. i die. good thing i have grace.

PEAS AND CARROTS
By Grandma Cochran
Peas and carrots,
Squash and beans,
Sat together swapping dreams.
“Someday, I’ll dance up on a stage,
a sparkling dress and a bright spotlight!”
“Miss Pea, you have such crazy thoughts,
what would take you to such a famous spot?”
You’re sitting here shivering in the dark,
What ever gives you the idea of such a lark?”
“Every time those girls open up the refrigerator door,
I see their faces,and I have to wish,
“Oh, please say, “Mom, can I have more?
More peas and carrots, squash and beans,
That is the stuff that makes our dreams!
They build our long and silky hair,
so gorgeous, everyone will stare.
They make our eyes sparkle like flecks of gold,
I hope we wouldn’t always be stuck in here in the cold.”
Before we swivel up and die,
I hope they will give vegetables a try!”
hahah you're the greatest. i love that you made a good list instead of bad list... but the good list still has the funniest negative connotations. good luck!
The positives of my guy being away are eating in bed (a severely punishable offense otherwise... with dirty looks) and the entire bed to myself. The rest does suck though. Good luck.
I don't think I have your current phone #, nor do I have your email address, so instead I shall leave a comment on your blog as an alternative method of contacting you.
Help me convince your sister to come out to Utah for New Years. My best friends are getting married and I need a date, PLUS think of all of the toys I'll bring Baby Grace (consider that a bribe).
Hope all's well. A kiss to young Peanut's head and a firm handshake to your husband.
