- My old zumba instructor just texted out his new zumba schedule, it's as if he's trying to send me a subliminal message. I hear his message loud and clear and just wish I could find the time.
- One of my Girl Scouts asked me what a 'period' was during our last Brownie meeting, after I wiped the shocked look off my face I told her it was something she'd have to ask her mother (my Girl Scout Co Leader). I hated making it seem like it was a big deal but I knew it was no where near my place.
- I'm reading a book with Baby C called "The Care and Keeping of You" every time we read and then discuss she's always uncomfortable when we get to the discussion part. We haven't reached the chapter on periods yet but all of a sudden she's very eager to read a book that normally made her feel uncomfortable.
- It's hard coming to terms with the fact that a new chapter is developing in Baby C's life, new topics of discussions with friends, new level of questions, new level of answers.
- I need some new punishments besides banning Baby C from watching TV, that punishment is getting old, she has the audacity to tell me "I don't get to watch it much anyway!"
- I just finished reading "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho... I did NOT like it one bit, I guess I'm not spiritual enough just yet. I will say it has many a good phrase though....my favorite being:
“When each day is the same as the next it is because people fail to realize the good things that happen in their lives every day that the sun rises”
- Every time I see pictures of friends Geo-caching I'm remembered how much I want to try it with Baby C. About 15 minutes after seeing the pictures I've forgotten ALL about it, like I'd never heard of it, and the cycle keeps repeating. Old age is approaching FAST. lol
- I'm trying a 21 day green detox, I've been doing it for 3 days now and ONLY just realized I've been doing it wrong LOL. I ultimately wanted to rid my body of all the crap that I KNOW it has in it, and start semi fresh. That's truthfully my goal. No more crap eating no matter what. Having a treat is different...But crap is just crap!
- Chicken Parm Meatballs is what's for dinner tonight! Yes I still cook for my family and then I can't eat it...I'll sit there with a green smoothie pretending it's Chicken Parm Meatballs! LOL
- Everyone says I need to find another name for Baby C, I'm not quite sure what else to call her....my husband is Big C and she'll always be my Baby.
She's sleeping on one Olaf while holding the other Olaf in her hand, and you want me to find another name besides Baby C |
:) 10-"Baby C" works.

8-Good for you for trying! I'd be one to screw it up, too. Although...I probably wouldn't even try to begin with.
7-Ditto! Given our move to the 'historic triangle,' I plan to reeeeeally try once the weather warms up.
6- Haven't heard of it!
5-Yep, I feel like a broken record around here, too.
4- YES. I know exactly what you're talking about only boy version. I'm not ready!
3- Our awkward book was "Almost 12." I try to keep an open dialogue, but with that one I said, "Read this. Ask your father if you have any questions."
2- You handled it just fine!
1- LOL!!
Btw the time we had those kind of chats with our daughters, they knew it all already! My eldest daughter started having periods at age 11, and it was pretty easy to talk to her about it all. The more matter of fact you are about it all, the less embarrassed they'll be.
