I've been tagged and I'm excited....

Don't know why but today of all days, I am excited to be tagged. Plus, I don't feel so dang tired any more. Oh and I may have gotten a mild concussion in church and that made me sick and dizzy, so I didn't workout Monday morning and....stop.

I am rambling. Here, there, everywhere. Breathe in, breathe out. What is it I am so excited about? What's that, your interest was far more piqued with my original intro? Go figure. I knew you loved me, but I didn't know it's because I make no sense and ramble constantly.

See, in church I subbed for the CTR 5 class. There's 7 of them and there's a couple of boys in that class, we'll call them Joe and Bob, that can get your goat like nothing else. I had to look behind me a few times on Sunday, just to get my goat to stand still and forget trying to get him to sit or lay down, he was supercharged and looking for a good head butting target. Joe and Bob are lucky I have worked so hard to control that goat of mine. So Joe was leaning as far over on his chair as possible, causing the back legs to come off the floor. I asked Bob all the live long day (or so it felt) to stop touching the folded tables against the wall for fear he would catch his fingers in between the tables. Joe is still leaning down as far as he can to get the chair to move and I watch in horror as Bob is about to catch his hand in between the afore mentioned tables. I am reaching over to help Bob, take my eyes off Joe and Joe comes FLAILING upwards, knocking his head smack into my brow bone. I caught my goat just in the nick of time. 2 more seconds and that goofy little laugh of his, while I am fighting tears of pain, would have been shamelessly smacked off his face by my goat (or my hand, couldn't really tell which one I really stopped in the end, it all happened so fast). It took every ounce of will-power not to cry. And this whole time, Joe is laughing hysterically, making the urge to pummel this 5 year old into the ground fiendishly hard to control. So that's where the mild concussion comes from. I felt sick and dizzy up until about 2 in the afternoon Monday. Don't worry, luckily, I am pretty sure this is the first one I have ever had, so I'll take it easy and lay off the football practice for, well, eternity. Who knows, I could have even imagined the concussion, just as an excuse not to go workout Monday morning.

So that brings us to the part where I don't feel so tired. Here's the silver lining with having your head whacked by a hard headed (in every sense of the word) 5 year old, you get to go right back to sleep and play catch up for all the lost sleep from the weekend and now I am feeling rested and ready to take on the day/week/month/year, whatever the case may be! Wha-whooooo!

Which brings us to while Alicia didn't mention my name in particular, she said everyone was tagged. Since I can still gain access to her blog...I figure that means I am tagged. And with all the extra sleep, pure giddiness is rushing over me and causing me to be exciting about being tagged. I am excited to go to work and even excited to cook dinner and fold clothes tonight. So Alicia's tag was to mention 6 unique/peculiar things about yourself:
1) When I count off things for working out, I count up until I get to the last 10 reps, then I count down. So what do I do if there's only 10? I count down. :) I know, what the heck?
2) I make the bed a certain way and if you try to make it another way, I will undo the whole bed and re-make it....I am hoping this will be something I DO NOT pass onto my kids. And yes, I made the bed this morning! WOW! I'm back.
3) I can re-arrange your living room in my head and if you want me to help you re-arrange it, nothing will get done until I have a to scale schematic with furniture cutouts to show you what I was thinking.
4) Even when I am flaming hot mad at Juan, I want to laugh and most times I do. I can never understand it afterwards, because I really thought I was beyond repair mad.
5) I like knowing a little something about most everything.
6) I won't go anywhere on Saturday without planning a route first. Really makes me seem crazy, doesn't it? :)

So got to get ready for work now! Thanks for listening luvs!

I'm glad you're back at the OCD for your sake, but I was enjoying having you down at my level for a while!

Oh, Kourtney -I wish you knew how much I miss your blog-posts! Some nights I lie awake just praying that you'll post something. And so I send this wish out into the void. Goodnight, dear void.
