Oh my goodness.....I didn't think I was ever going to get back to my precious little blog ever again.
I would like to say that all is going well and things are moving along with my house and everyone is getting along and playing nice.....but then I would be lying.
I have ONE nerve left and it seems EVERYONE and their mother is on it! I can't even blame it on PMS. Work has been hectic....and sadly I'd rather be there than at my parent's house. I flipped out in the car the other day - while I was driving - I threatened to throw a pair Zander's shoes out the window if I heard the velcro on them ONE.MORE.DAMN.TIME! No, it wasn't Zander doing it.....it was his Grandpa!!!!
Why do men make so much noise? Have you ever noticed how noisy they are? Whistling.....not really a tune or anything....just a noise. Humming...again, not a real tune....just one long note. Jingling of keys or coins in a pocket. Mumbling to themselves. NOISY! Why I want a man I have NO freakin' idea! I'd probably end up killing him in his sleep after a few bad days. Just kidding (no I'm not).
Oh, and on that same car trip where I flipped out - like I said...I was driving. My Dad was sitting in the back with Zander. He yells up to me and says "You need to do something about your son. He's trying to get out of his carseat". REALLY? I NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT HIM WHEN I'M DRIVING AND YOU ARE ACTUALLY SITTING BACK THERE WITH HIM???? Yeah, that didn't go so well. I pulled off the road into the nearest store's parking lot......let's just say things worked themselves out before I had to unbuckle my seat belt.
Did I mention I'm on the edge????
Ok, on the home front....I finally got a break down from my public adjuster as to what he and his team think is totaled. I had to go through the list and say where I bought it and when and how much I paid for it. Thank you, Google, for making that easier. It still took me 3 hours!
Other than that.....NOTHING has been done to the house yet! I have to laugh about it. Oh, its not a "haha" laugh...its a "I'm going insane" laugh......you know...the kind that makes everyone around you uncomfortable.
Well, if you stuck around and read all my bitching.....then I have good news for you. I'm done bitching for now. I have to admit....I feel better having written that all out. So, thanks for indulging me once again. Oh, that wasn't my good news though.
The good news is we had GREAT weather last weekend and I took oodles of pictures of the Z-Man. So, for the next few days......as long as I have time to upload pics.....I should have some posted daily.
Here's a couple to get started......
He's trying to blow bubbles here.....
Here is trying to dismantle a rock wall ...
He was watching my Dad test out a new miter saw.....he was so zoned in on that that when he went to put his candy in his mouth....he missed his mouth!

These are action shots of him running in the backyard.....see how his hair is flying in the wind....he is super fast!

Wow, wound up as tight as a spring...
I loved the comment about Zander being so focused he missed his mouth with the candy. I have seen that with my own kids, and their kids...

I'm sorry you've been so stressed lately :( Staying with your parents can be sooooo tough. I pray your house will be done VERY soon!!
As always, Zander is too adorable -I love that candy pic.
Yes...I agree Men are loud...I wonder daily why I haven't killed the Hubby while he sleeps! He can't even sleep quietly!!!
Zander is adorable...Oh the book is yours if you want it!
With all things considered, it's not surprising you are on edge. Hang in there!
My poor friend. I am sorry it is taking so long to get your house fixed.
OMG I can't imagine. It would be so frustrating to not have your own space after being so used to it. Hope they get started on your house...jeesh. I can't believe how long it's taking!!
Adorable pics of Z, BTW!! Looks like you were able to enjoy the 2 days of warm weather before it got freaking cold again!!
Such Superior Snaps! See there's always a silver lining...good luck dealing with all the stress and the crazies!
I am SO laughing at the visual of your Dad and Z in the back seat and you threatening to pull the car over!!!
I still think you should of stayed at our house.
Love the pictures, is that a VW Bug in the driveway?
Fun!
If I lived close to you - we would go out, just us mommies, and get a massage and have a nice dinner somewhere and there would be no men, no velcro, and no car seats...
As I'm reading this, my hubby is snoring LOUDLY right beside me. This pillow is looking might tempting!
I'm SO sorry you have been a bit crazed. Your house can't get fixed soon enough!
