In a nutshell

I sooooo don't have time to be doing this.  But oh well.  Here we go anyway.  I just have so much to say that every time I think about posting something new on this blog I get overwhelmed and push it to the back of my already bursting at the seams brain.  So here is my life in a very condensed set of small sentences in no particular order.  The so-called nutshell.  (Note to self:  research this phrase sometime in the future and find out what the heck it really means.  Cuz I'm kinda nerdy like that.)

1.  Guess what?  I passed THE test!  Woo hoo!  It was harder than I thought it would be.  Kinda thinking I'm also not as smart as I once thought I was.
2.  Shawn quits his job in one month and starts school 3 weeks later.  This brings two thoughts to my mind.  First, what in the HECK are we thinking?  Second, it's possible that those 3 weeks might end in divorce. :)  What am I going to do with him for that long? (No Craig, not that.)
3.  I miss my friends in Maine.  I cried for 45 minutes last night because they called and left us a funny message on our machine.  Didn't realize how much I really, really wish they were here right now.  (Love you guys!)
4.  I am approaching this holiday season with the same amount of usual dread, but have found that I have this one little irritating ray of hope and anticipation sparkling somewhere in the darkness.  Ok...this is new.  What do I do with that?
5.  I made Barbie clothes for Abby the other day.  It was like an eruption of spontaneous creativity that I just had to get out.  So I neglected everything else in my life and worked for 2 hours until I created this one little dress for her Barbie.  2 hours people!  What is wrong with this picture!?!  It is pretty dang cute though.  And modest, which is so unlike the Barbie we know.
6.  Abby turned 3 last week.  She is so flippin' cute.  She acted like a princess all day, saying things like "Why thank you." and "Whatever shall we do?".  She is an actress in the making, I tell you.  I also made her a beautiful cake.
7.  I feel like I have totally neglected my boys the last few months.  I am experiencing huge amounts of guilt about that.  But I don't know what to do to fix it.
8.  I have been actually exercising in a sort-of consistent way with my friend Heidi.  She is way awesome!  And the fact that she still likes me even though I completely sleep in and ditch her sometimes makes her an angel in my book.  I love her!!
9.  I got a new calling.  I was the Primary pianist but now have been promoted to Primary chorister.  I do not have feelings about this yet, only that I am bummed that Heidi (see number 8) won't be there anymore to chit chat with me.  I'm also unsure if I will be able to muster that much happiness for such a long period of time.  Primary choristers are just so dang enthusiastic and fun!
10.  I hate cars.
11.  I hate driving cars.
12.  I hate spending hundreds of dollars to repair cars that I don't even like to begin with.
13.  I think I'm stretching now for things to say, so I must be done.

That will be all.
