havn’t done a randomness post lately, have i? here goes.

• now that all my shows are over i have nothing on tv to watch. i have, however … watched about 6 lifetime channel movies in the last week. lol! i have even taken to scouting on the quide trying to find good lifetime movies to record … and anytime i’m watching one and i see a commercial for one … i stop watching the one i’m on and go find the other one on the quide so that i don’t miss it.
• and last night i will admit to watching tori & dean’s "inn love" reality show. i’ve heard about it … after all, i live for my weekly gossip magazine. but i have never seen it. i stumbled across it last night. and i have to admit … i found it quite entertaining. i even found myself searching through the quide trying to find out when it was on next … the guide goes about 9 days ahead … but i couldn’t find it. i will though!
• i will also admit to you that last night i was really craving chocolate big time. and we had none. i’ve also been big on ice cream lately … french vanilla, lots of chocolate sauce, and a ton of nut topping (as in about 1/3 of a can). but we had no ice cream either. so i made myself  a small bowl (and i do mean very small) of nut topping … with chocolate sauce on top. is that gross?!?! actually about halfway through it kind of was.
• tonight i made up a baby mini album in about an hour. i was planning on making one for alyssa’s teacher (she’s having a baby if i wasn’t clear on that) … and time just got away from me. then alyssa informed me that this friday is her teachers last day (they still have about 3 weeks of school left … or is it 4 weeks?). they’re having a party in class tomorrow for her and i wanted to have something for her. it turned out cute though. although it was a little harder because she doesn’t know if it’s a boy or a girl … so it had to be good colors either way.
• i will admit that i have 3 more baby mini albums sitting here unfinished. i started them all about 2 weeks ago … and was doing so good. then i realized that i had no mini albums to put the pages in. for the longest time i had 6×6 albums coming out of my ears … and now, i have just a few … and of coarse they’re not the right colors. i even went last week and picked up an album for one of them … but realized after i got home that i got the wrong refills to go with it. so i have to make another trip before i can get it all together. and sadly … one of them is for a previous daycare parent of mine … and she had her baby over a month ago. how sad am i to be this late with a gift? lol! and i know erika is reading this … yes, one is coming your way soon … i promise! hate to ruin the surprise … but maybe having you know about it will get me motivated to finish. lol! i now risk you "outing" me on your blog for my terrible procrastination!
• also did 2 layouts today during naptime … love when i can get the kids to sleep at the same time. a few years ago i had about 6 kids here during the day … we’re talking little ones. 5 of them boys between the ages of 9 mths and 2.5 yrs. people actually bowed down to the fact that i could get them all to sleep within minutes of each other. ok … mabye no one bowed … but they were impressed. lol! anyways … these layouts were done for a manufacturer that sent me some product to play with. will take some pics and share when i can.
• it’s way too quiet around here these days. except for noisy kids. lol! i was watching a lifetime movie last night … "my name is sarah". it’s about this lonely women who accidently joins an AA group … and then stays for the company. i can’t tell you the whole story … i still have half the movie to watch. but i thought it was so funny that she would keep checking her answering machine and her email all day … and never had any messages. one time she got all excited because she had 3 new emails in her inbox … they all turned out to be junk. lol! you know … the viagra ones, the salespitch ones, etc. i had to laugh … because that’s me. i’m constantly checking my email … even though on most days … there’s nothing going on. lol! and my phone never seems to ring. and every time i call anyone … they’re not home. it’s no wonder i talk to myself all the time. lol! i’m seriously my own BFF.
• i’m taking 3 vacation days next week … whoohoo!!! i think i’ve only taken 1 day this year … and that was for the scrapbook expo back in february. actually i have 3 of my daycare girls that are going to be gone next week … so 2 of those days i wouldn’t have had anyone here anyways. lol! so i officially took the days off. i think i’m going with sarah on her field trip one day … although today she informed me that it was all day. as in over 6 hours. that may be too much fun for me. although it is the chocolate factory … and i think some cheese factory.
• i was so pissed at myself on monday night. we had a busy weekend … on the go way too much for a holiday weekend. so the girls were asleep and i was finally going to settle in for some tv time … i just don’t watch much tv on the weekend. i always grab my sleeping pill and some water before sitting down … everything on me tends to really tighten up at night, so it’s hard to get up more than i have to. i grabbed another pill that i was going to take right away. but before i realized it … i took the sleeping pill. lol! as soon as i swallowed it i thought … hey, that was a tiny pill … not the big monster one. i had taken my sleeping pill at only 10:00pm. i never go to bed before midnight. i was so pissed because i knew the rest of the night was going to be a blur. i kept thinking that i was going to just konk out any minute … i usually take that thing about 15 minutes before bed. i did manage to stay awake for an hour and a half though … not sure i remember it. lol!

is that enough randomness for you? just enough to convince you that i really am quite crazy?!?! lol! back in the next day or two with some pics … i hate posting without pics. thanks for stopping by.
