Procrastination!!

Oh man-ok so I have come to realize that I procrastinate big projects...  So here I am, four days away from needing to get my photo book turned in to blurb to redeem a coupon and to get said book done before the anniversary.  I have 5 pages done... yes I know sad but true.  I think for a while I was trying to decide if I wanted the professional black and white or if I wanted to use digi scrap stuff. Well I have decided to use the professional look.  I am almost done with another page-so we will see, I gotta get my butt moving on it! Oh-hubbys home GTG make food.  I have a blog planned for later-maybe after I finish the book.  It will be about happyness and how some people think just cause you are not fit you arnt happy.   Ok later y'all!

Goal #72 - Create a House cleaning schedule

Ok, so I am going to start by saying I HATE HOUSE CLEANING. I hate it with a passion. I think it has to do with that my mother is a house cleaning freak and lots of times growing up she would ask me to help and I wouldnt do it to her satisfaction and we would argue.  So I think that is why I hate cleaning-not totally sure-maybe I am just naturally a slob!  My roomates in college would deffinatly call me the later!! So I have checked out a website in the past and attempted to stick to the routines with little to no luck.  Well this time I also purchased a daily calendar thing.  The website is called FlyLady.com.  It helps you build a control journal for tasks to do on a daily basis and build a habit to it.  They also have weekly zones for deeper cleaning - but each task on a given day should only take you fifteen minutes.  So really each day I only pick up/clean whatever for like an hour total.  An example of my schedule is
Monday: My Errand Day
-Go to Library - return books
-Go to Grocery Store
-Decide what to make for wednesday Potluck
-Declutter for 15 Min.
-2min. in Hot spots
-Clean off hot spots in back of tub
-Swish & Swipe
So that is monday, some days have more-some have less.  Tuesdays and thursdays are my home blessing hour-I seperate otherwise I would get frustrated.  So I use my daily calender to write down what I have to do for the day, and cross off as I go. I was never a list maker-but I am liking how it is working out. I also get daily emails from Flylady.com to keep me on schedule.  So other than this I have been busy working on the photobook.  Also getting everything in order for our party next month.  So I have been busy!

3 Birds one stone and my anniversary!!

So, my third wedding anniversary has come and gone. It was May 5th, but it totally didnt start off on the right foot. OMG, the weekend will be most memorable because of all the issues that arose!!  So I figure I might as write this since I am certain it will come out at some point otherwise.  So if we look at our calender's may 5th was a wednesday.  It was originally supposed to be nothing super big since we planned to go to chi town for the weekend.  Well wednesday I got sick, like vomiting sick.  So, needless to say I ended up sleeping and vomiting all day-fun huh?  So by the time Kevin came home I was quite out of it, due to dehydration and adrenal crisis. Kevin wanted to take me to the hospital-I didnt want to go.  So after calling my parents to see what he should do, Kevin took me to the emergency room.  Also my mother met us there.  So, due to having sucky deep veins and dehydration, the only vein they could access-after 6 attemptes mind you - they got a vein in my thumb.  Then they pumped with fluids and solucortef and about three hours later they wanted to find a bigger vein. So they put a central line thingy in my neck-yeah fun  not.  So after getting but loads of tests done they moved me into the ICU overnight. They were concerned with my low bp (lowest was about 74/50) and my high heart rate-about 120 at it's highest.  The bp and hr were both caused by severe dehydration.  So after spending a night and most of a day in ICU, I got transfered to a regular room for another night and part of day.  I was ready to leave the hospital by the time I got transfered to a regular room, but they wanted to monitor me for another day.  I was super eager to get out especially that last day in the regular room.  We had planned to leave early for chicago that day.  But didnt leave until just after rush hour.  So I got released from the hospital friday afternoon-like 3ish we went home packed real fast and got on the road.  So friday night we kinda just chilled-we went to an awesome restaraunt.  It was called Miller's ale house-I think it was in oak terrace.  Really good food.  They even had fried clams!!  So cool.  Also kevin and I got a fish fry that was good as well-a little rich and over fried, but good.  So that night we came back to the hotel and slept. Got up early the next day and went to the museum of science and industry-so cool i must say!!  Very awesome exibits and stuff.  So we were half way through and went to go and sit at a mini computerized exibit that was about the earth-a big computerized globe in the middle.  Well there is like two steps up and then a row of chairs.  Well the exibit ended and we were getting up to leave and clutzo me didnt remeber or pay attention to the steps and tripped somehow and fell.  All I could think about for a minute was omg-I look like an idiot!!  But I must say, museum of S & I was VERY responsive-within a few seconds of falling they asked if I wanted an ambulance-I said no. No way in hell was I going back to a hospital!!  So in the end I beleive I pulled a muscle in my foot and two muscles in my back.  I have been taking pain meds and iced it a few times the first day or so.  Kevin and I continued through the m of s&i and I still had a good time even though my back was killing me and I had to walk funny cuz my foot hurt.  So that night we went back to the hotel and kevin got sick.  He was vomiting a few times. I kept him hydrated though.  I let him sleep it off for a few hours then we went out so I could get some grub and we went to walgreens again.  He ended up really just eating to much greasy food i think.  He still wasnt 100% the next morning, but good enough to go to the Shedd aquarium.  I loved it-I love the fish stuff! LOL!! We also went to the Field museum wich was just eh in my opinion. Kevin liked it-he liked the dino stuff.   So we wanted to see the adler as well, but we were to tired so we drove home.  We stopped at the bridge oasis thingy. I wanted a munchy for the drive and kevin was hungry as well.  So that was my three birds with one stone. We celebrated our anniversary (#1), Completed goal #34 go to museum of science & industry (#2) and goal #35 go to shedd aquarium.  Other than that not many goals have been worked on.  I want to start reading agin, but I am still so busy with my photo projects.  I finally finished the invites for the party and finally sent them out-thank God it is done!! Now I am just searching through my photos to make sure I scanned all the ones I need. I am also going through my previously scanned photos and cropping them down.  I have completed about four pages of the book, so we will see. I gotta finish by June 1, so I can send it off to blurb.

I am thankful for my husband and his concern he showed towards me. It is nice to have someone other than your parents concerned/thinking about you.
