Great Expectations

I anesthetize my life.

I know that I do.

I think much of it is more habit than necessity at present, but that doesn't stop me.

I'm drugged for Bi-Polar disorder.

I drink.

I smoke pot.

...but the reason I have been recently refused for life insurance, is the Bi-Polar meds - specifically, the mood stabilizer. Seems odd that something that helps me so much is causing such a stir with my insurer... so I don't know what to do. If I should go off those meds - that keep me from the depths of despair this time of year - in favour of having life insurance for my kids in the event of my untimely demise... or if I should try and change them to something acceptable to my insurer. Problem being, they are not overly forthcoming with information on what they will and won't do.

Argh.

This weekend, my hubs is taking me away for a hotel stay and dinner out. He's been pushing me to go and get my nails and hair done this week... and we are going shopping for an outfit or two for an upcoming work event.

I'm feeling very spoiled.

The lady that did my nails the other night asked, when I told her of my exciting date night, if I deserved it.

You know what? 
I do deserve it. 
100%

I'm a lot of things in this life, but at the top of the list is "Mom" and "Wife"... and I take those titles incredibly seriously. 
I'm good at it, shockingly enough.
I always thought I was maybe too selfish to truly be good at such selfless positions, but I embrace it entirely... most of the time.

In fact, I would say that in all ways but maybe two, I'm an awesome spouse... I just require more attention than only one man can give me, and I have a heart the figurative size of Texas... so that creates the odd issue... like growing little tendrils of affection for people I have no business 'affecting'. Otherwise, I'm about everything my spouse could possibly imagine for himself.

So, yeah... I deserve to be treated to a nice evening and some hotel sex (which is honestly all the treat hubs needs) and buying myself beauty services and new things makes me feel extra good... which my highly intelligent husband knows will pay off in spades for him.

It's a win/win, really.
I'm stoked!

We were originally supposed to go to the Casino in another province, but between my youngest being nervous to stay two nights alone and the total cost of such a trip, we opted to stay local and use points to secure lodging. I wish we could stay two nights, but it's really too busy to do that... and I have a Board Meeting this coming week, so I can't be too exhausted from all that sexy-yummy-fun-time to perform my other duties.

Anyhoo... I am supposed to be working, and though I am doing three different things as I type, I have some accounting that needs doing and that requires my closer to 'full' attention.

Cheers!

D-out

I know I have been a slacker on the fun MeMe's lately. I thought perhaps I might try to rectify this little problem and join in today with Chiefy and her highly fun theme. Without further ado: On Monday night, my hubs came home from work at his usual 10:30(ish) pm. I had recently awoken in my daughter's bed and come downstairs to watch one of my most fav shows (The Big Bang Theory ... don't judge me - it is funny!) ... I had fallen into a sound stupor while trying to get my brats beautiful darlings to go to sleep and I was barely coherent. My hubs had come in and then disappeared for a little while ... I thought it odd, but didn't dwell as my show was starting. When he finally came into the living room  with his plate of dinner, (yes, I save him a plate from our dinner to eat when he gets home) he asked me how I was feeling. I found that odd. I said: "Why?" in a highly suspicious tone. He didn't say anything else until the next commercial break. Hub...

This is dedicated to the one(s) I love .... (gotta sing it)

Yesterday was my 37th birthday. I was sick for the entire day and mighty worried I was in for a pretty miserable few days. I went to work and did my thing (I know I should have stayed home, but that is not the sort of place I work in) and the gals at my office threw a little lunch time party for me, complete with chinese food and cake ... and card and song and even a gift certificate for a hair-do at a local salon (okay - so you know your "do" is a "don't" when you get a certificate like this from your co-workers... unclench, Eyvi - I know I've been bitching about my hair for months ... I'm just funnin'). To them, I say TYVM ... for making me gain 5 more pounds... no, I'm kiddin' again - I am so touched. Thanks guys - you ROCK! I don't plan to spend a whole bunch of time yaking about the 'day' itself. It's just that birthdays have a tendancy to cause somewhat of a retrospective thought path ... especially when one is campe...

Okay - So I Am Livin' in a Dream World...

Yeah, yeah - I know what yer thinkin' ... whaz up wid the new look?? Dani-fly? Really? Well - it wouldn't fit any other way ... not really a sessy reason, but the truth. And the pic? A gal can dream, can't she? I am trying the whole 'positive projection' thang... and I positively would love to project THAT image. So, this is my new look for a while ... and yes, I change my furniture around this often. It would appear I bore easily when it comes to decor - even in cyber space. ************************************************************************************ Okay, I just hung up the phone from Mr Dragonfly. The conversation was mostly mundane up until this part: Mr D: Well hun, if you WANT to do some decorating (and no, I didn't) you could always go downstairs and grab that set of bush lights. Me: Bush lights? *snickers like a pervy teenaged boy* Mr D: *oblivious* Yeah, you know, the mini lights ... to decorate your bush. Me: Bahhh haa haa haa h...
