My secret affair...

Its true...

I can't keep it a secret any longer...

I am currently involved in a deep, secret love affair...

with the bowl of oranges on my table...LOL

I just can't seem to get enough. It started last Monday. I went to the grocery store and bought 5 oranges (they were on sale)...I ate one, I ate two...I ate three...I went through all 5 oranges in about a day and a half...

Then, Saturday Jeff and I went grocery shopping...I bought 7 more, thinking I would have one for every day...

Yeah, there are 2 left.

Beyond my secret love affair with my oranges, I have just been feeling off. I can't quite put my finger on it. I just don't feel right...

However, life and time continue to march on. Today I have been extremely domestic. I deep cleaned my kitchen, vacuumed the living room (deep vacuumed, we're talking taking that little brush thing with the hose to the corners and moving furniture), and swept and mopped the entry way and kitchen and I went through my shoes and decided which ones need to find a new home...My house smells like bleach...I did laundry...all by myself(Jeff usually helps me)...CRAZY!

All the while I was cleaning, I couldn't help but think to myself, "I was born to do this." It seems so odd to me that cleaning the house just feels "right" but it does...add this to the fact that I made lunch and called my husband home from his never-ending study session for his Advanced Digital Theory class when it was done (because he's a smarty pants), and I find that today I was living the perfect 1950s housewife existence...and I couldn't be happier about it...LOL

However, I lost my energy burst and I'm beginning to think that the bedroom and bathroom will just have to wait for the deep cleaning treatment...Alas, the call of our lovely futon is just too much for me...Plus I still have laundry to go grab (enter my one moment of irritation today when I went to go move laundry from a washer to a dryer to find that someone had taken the wet clothes out of the washer and had left them sitting...ughh...one of my major pet peeves...ahh the joys of communal laundry)

Its all good. I am watching SNL the best of Mike Meyers on VH1, giggling at Sprockets (Now is the time we dance!) and I am waiting for my husband to come home...I am also involved in the great debate with myself...to eat one of my two remaining oranges, or not to eat....

It is quite the conundrum.

Just a peek into my boring but productive day.

Hugs and loves until next time darlings!

Are you pregnant?:)

I don't think so Rebecca...who knows- we aren't exactly trying right now, but for the last month we haven't been preventing either. I'm not sure if birth control wears off that quickly. It would, however, be just my luck to get pregnant during a very busy semester like this one. I will keep you posted. Ha ha :)
