Tags? Why not?

I figure since people tag me, and I don't really feel like putting them on our family blog, I can put them here...on my random blog. I am sure they will fit in nicely. So here is just one....I think the most recent....of the many tags I have received....

THE GREAT EIGHT!

EIGHT things that make me feel good: Jack, sleeping, laughing, being outside, smelling rain, Dustin, the ocean, and exercising (if I ever do it),

EIGHT THINGS I DID YESTERDAY: Taught school, took a nap, changed about 4 poopy diapers, played with Jack, ate too much, watched a stupid movie that Dustin made me watch, watched "Chicago" one of my favorite movies of all time, and talked to my sister Lisa on the phone.

EIGHT FAVORITE EATS/Drinks: Cherry Coke Zero, Diet Dr. Pepper, Chicken Fingers or Chicken Nuggets w/ BBQ sauce from McDonalds, any kind of fresh fruit (Don't you dare try to give me any of that nasty cooked or dried fruit! GROSS! , Cafe Rio/Costa Vida, Olive Garden food, especially the salad and breadsticks (Dang Bozeman for not having one but teasting me with the commercials on TV!!) Sonic Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, and Red Lobster!

EIGHT THINGS ON MY WISH LIST: Go on a vacation to Hawaii, have Dustin design and build a dream home for us, for me and my family to be happy, to have more kids (preferably a girl sometime, to live closer to either one of our families, for Dustin to get baptized, to go through the temple with Dustin and be sealed to him, to have someone else clean my house, and for us to make more money.

EIGHT THINGS I LOVE ABOUT FALL: My birthday, Jack's birthday, the colorful fall leaves, HALLOWEEN, the cool weather, fall clothes to cover me up, the smell of snow coming, and new TV seasons starting :)

EIGHT FAVORITE TV SHOWS: Law and Order: Special Victims, CSI (any), Amazing Race, America's Next Top Model, Lost (I cannot wait for it to start!), Jeopardy, Sports Center, and The Biggest Loser

EIGHT THINGS I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO: Halloween, Jack's first birthday, Thanksgiving, the food at Thanksgiving, Christmas, spending my first New Year's Eve with my husband since we have been married, the next time we get to see Dustin's family, trying to have another baby next year.

And there you go....Yee haw! Insight into my life!

Thoughts? What thoughts?

Sorry, (especially to Mindy) for the lack of updates on this blog. It is supposed to be my thoughts...but really I haven't had many lately. My brain does not seem to be functioning quite up to par. Ask Dustin. He will tell you I have been a serious ditz for about the last month. (Yes even more so than normal!) My friend Cami would probably agree because I have totally forgotten not once but twice to come over when I was supposed to to watch her kids. (Even after Dustin reminded me in the morning at least 3 times, I still forgot that afternoon.) Or ask my poor nephew who just barely got his birthday card sent off yesterday and his birthday was September 15th. Or you could notice the card still sitting on my counter for a friend's birthday back in the middle of September and I keep forgetting to give it to her even though she watched Jack two days in a row and I see her every week at church. I am pretty much losing my mind. I don't really know why either. Maybe it is the craziness of trying to me a mom to THE BUSIEST boy around who is pooping an average of 4 times a day. Or because of the annoyingness (no not a word but I can't think of a better one) of my weirdo middle schoolers whose extensive annoyingness is frying or ruining my brain. Or maybe because the weather has been winter then summer then fall up here. Who knows? Whatever it is, my brain isn't working too well so my thoughts aren't quite here.....I will do better. But here is my legitimate but lame-o excuse. Does anyone else ever feel like they are kind of losing their mind? :)
