I'm Addicted

To Top Chef. Is anyone else just crazy about this show?? It reruns about 12 times a day, and no matter how many times I've seen the episode I will sit and watch it everytime. I tend to do that with certain shows though. I could sit and watch Roseanne, Designing Women, and The Golden Girls a million times a day - it drives Paul CRAZYYYY!!!! It seems that this gene has been passed down to Paige & Maddie too. Those two can watch the same 4 episodes of Hannah Montana, The Suite Life of Zach & Cody, and Raven from the Disney Channel and it drives me CRAZYYY - but oh well - can't get too upset about it because I do the exact same thing. Final episode will be on soon and that means a full day of nothing but Top Chef episodes - YEA!!!!

Giving it a Go!

As a newly re-minted Stay-At-Home Mom I need something to do with all of my "free-time", besides watching/entertaining my 2 girls. When I say newly re-minted at-home Mom I mean I've been down the with the kids 24/7 road before. The first time it was with my oldest daughter, Paige. My wonderful husband, Paul gave me the chance to stay home and be with her for all of her firsts. It was a great 16 months, but I soon realized I needed adult interaction on an 8-5 basis. Paige went off to daycare and I went to work. Maddie came along a few years later and was in daycare when she was pretty young. Personally, daycare was the best - not only for me but for them too. They learned sharing, the alphabet, made good friends, were potty-trained there, and got all the energy out while running around at daycare. Whenever I've expressed how much I loved the kids in daycare I've gotten the looks - you know the Oh, youd rather send your child to daycare so you don't have to deal with it and I stay with my kids all day so I'm instantly a better mother than you kind of looks. Anyway - I love them very much but daycare probably helped me keep my sanity. Now I'm back at home trying hard to be the ultimate domestic diva but seriously - I'm not very domestic. I do love spending time with my family and all that jazz, but the whole having a spotlessly clean and unlived in looking house - NOT HAPPENING!! That's why I consider myself a Semi-Domestic Diva. If you asked Paul it would just be a Diva period but I completely disagree with that one ;)

I love reading other peoples blogs so I figured if I loved to read them maybe writing one wouldn't be so bad! Hopefully I'll keep up with it and not just toss it to the side, but due to my busy life of being a Semi-Dom you never know!
