Blah Blah Blah

I really don't have anything special to blog about. I just decided to pen out a few things we've been up to. Sorry if this is a snore. I've been...

  • Really digging the recipe for homemade enchiladas I found here. It is so easy, and it already won a spot in my "favorite recipes" cookbook. Like the blogger recommends, we only used a tad over one can of cream of chicken soup. Next time we probably won't bother with opening a second can. For meat, we simmered rotisserie chicken in a taco flavor packet and then tossed it with black beans. We are going to make these for a second time tonight, and as an experiment, we are going to add a layer of enchilada sauce.
  • Using the Bob Duallie (when the weather agrees) and occasionally driving up the street at 6:15 a.m. to do workout videos with a friend. I've lost ten pounds since September and only have about five more to go. My summary of the best possible run/walk: it is at least 45 minutes long, Junior sleeps and Mister Man stays awake (so he will be tired for naptime/bedtime later). Today, the magic happened. It was bliss.
  • Finishing a humongous editing job. I turned it in and billed out $338.47, but I haven't heard much back from the client. Sometimes I can't help but wonder if they think I changed too much, too little, just the right amount? Either way, I know my Stylebook, so if they want it right, they will hit "accept all changes!"
  • Being patient with potty training. After two solid months, we are back to having about two accidents a day. It's still better than diapers.
  • Crossing my fingers this mostly-mild winter lasts. How could anyone with two kids under the age of three actually like snow? It traps us inside. And when we do go outside, there is much slipping and cold and fumbling with gloves.
