Jenn: Random Thoughts & A Recipe
Posted by
Cara - The stomach flu has shown up at our house - so far only claimed one victim - we shall see how long it lingers.
- You think cleaning up baby puke is gross - just wait until they are 13.
- I am longing for warmth and sunshine.
- January is whizzing by in a hurry. I haven't caught my breath from December yet.
- I am no longer addicted to shopping. In fact I have no interest in going to the stores at all!
- As bad as your day was, somebody else's was worse (kinda makes you feel better.)
- I do not enjoy cleaning up after my dogs but I do it everyday - wish everyone else did too.
- HGTV is back - WooHoo.
- Hubby is off to London tomorrow.
- January has turned out to be a much busier much than I ever imagined!
