A week of Pretend
This week I worked full time for three days. I realized that you get out of work shape when you only work 4-10 hours a week. I need to build up my work endurance. My boss texted me last night saying I did not have to come in on Thursday. Wow, that was nice to hear. I was happy I was able to put so many hours in this week, maybe my pay will cover more than one gas station fill up and a trip to the...

oh so you want to know how my day is?
This article below from the New York Times inspired me to write about my typical Sunday….
“SLEEP IN A BIT On a Sunday morning I will, of course, sleep in, because it’s very precious not to have to get up, but I can’t really sleep much past 8 or 9. I’ll get to my local cafe, Via Quadronno, by 10, and if it’s not too crowded, I’ll sit in the window seat to read.”
But Really...

baby girl named Anna
So when my unborn daughter named Anna becomes 3 or 4, she is going to start playing soccer. She will also learn a language, take dance class, play guitar and love dogs. She will also draw me little darling photos that I will scan into my computer and save on a hard drive just for her. That way it will never clutter up the kitchen drawers. My little Anna. Maybe she will be a 2015 baby. Probably or...

when in doubt do what has worked
So today I woke up very early because my chihuahua was all itchy. But I have been setting my alarm to wake up early, and now Honey has programed her brain to wake up at 5am. I guess she is just trying to keep me successful. She knows the early bird catches the worm. In my case if I sleep in too late the Orlando Heat will drain me. So now I am just downloading some music (which i am buying, no more...

this is for real
i just ate cookie dough ice cream in a waffle cone because I started thinking of my mom. strange right? i thought about how she is flying back to the US, so then i got a mischievous smile on my face and asked Adam to get me something sweet. Sometimes it feels good to take on other people’s tendencies.. so that was such a kim thing to do. now I want to go to sleep. going to sleep before...
my favorite words
bloatation floatation device (how i feel).. oh noo.. i just realized if i type anymore out i will get flagged for being n-a-f’ng-propriate. gee whiz. how can i be wholesome and cutting edge at the same time? well today I taught my friend from South America what the term “hardcore” means. I told her how I use it. Example “wow, today’s workout was HARDCORE.” But...

perfect dog is getting older
My perfect chihuahua is getting older. I remember when she was always under foot, i probably stepped on her 5-7 times a day when she was my brand new puppy, but she was like ‘no big deal it’s part of job.’ Now for some reason Orlando has 30 degree weather, and my baby chihuahua who is actually middle aged in dog years, is have an arthritis attack. She has always been bubbly and...

TV is my future
no, not me being on TV. but it was funny, 30 Rock talked about older dudes on a social network like facebook, and then guess what, my dad goes on facebook!! Ok, lame connection but my dad on facebook? I am interested to see his status updates. They will probably revolve around “kitty” (the chihuahua) and something like, “Kim is cooking something special, too bad I eat...

la la la la la... i am liking that Bad Romance...
I have gotten into pop music again. In high school I had so many experiences tied into songs from Britney, and the BackStreet Boys. Then I went into an ” i am too cool for mainstream music” phase, and now I am back to the pops. I don’t take it seriously, but Lady Gaga, Shakira, Pink??? Like wow, they are so much fun. Maybe this means I am trying to get back to my adolescences,...
more boring stats
Before I go running or biking, now a days i strap on my heart rate monitor. and sometimes before i leave my house, i like to sit on my computer and catch up on the “daily online”gossip. Like right now, I have about 11 min before I am out the door to meet up with my friend for an early morning bike ride. I have my heart rate monitor on, while reading my sister’s blog i glanced at...

hi
karenparadiso:
my tumblr dashboard is clogged with pictures from ffffound.com
i like reading inner thoughts
i don’t think this blog is really read by anyone, but that’s okay with me. i guess i’m not artsy enough
so let it pour
Today it’s not hot. Whenever it is not hot out I get flashbacks of Michigan. And whenever I get flash backs of Michigan, depending on my mood I get nostalgic or inspired. Today I am feeling inspired. I want to drive in a convertible with the top down and find a book to help guide my life. After I find that perfect book I will read it from beginning to end and my life will transform. The...
an open letter to Baby Julia
Dear Julia,
You are less than 24 hours old as I write this. You have chubby cheeks and you are already turning into a little cry baby. But everyone loves you. I know your mom and dad are still grasping the miracle that is you. You have a full head of hair and are making gurgling noises. I am sure every movement you make becomes even more endearing than the last.
I hope as you grow older, and...

Our one year
So our one year is coming up. One year in marriage. It has been great. Really amazing. It seems like my life started rolling again once we finished up with our honeymoon and thank you letters. What I remember from life before we were married was stress. That wedding planning phase really pushed us to our limits. I don’t know why picking out a wedding band or photographer caused so much...
guuuh
Things I need to do today:
pull out all my gray hair
relax my left quadricep
buy a dress for next week’s wedding
and prepare for officially becoming a “late 20” kinda girl
i write for my sisters
I write this for my sisters. And maybe for my husband if he gets frisky and checks the web browser’s history. Other than that I write this for myself. I realize that twitter doesn’t offer enough space for bs thoughts and facebook is too comment orientated. But so far I am having a nice time with tumblr and it’s sophisticated layouts. I originally started blogging back in 06 for a...
PT and Strength
So I spent another $40 for my health. I wonder when it will all pay off. I have a weak lower back, tight calves and a short left leg. So tell me something I didn’t know. I guess if I just paid more attention to those health magazine articles on 6 pack abs, I would not be in this situation. How can I still have a weak core if I use the exercise ball every morning? How can I have a tight IT...
Synecdoche
I watched the Phillip Hoffman movie last night, Synechdoche, New York. I hated it’s length but I enjoyed the story. My dad warned me that it was full of craziness but touching moments that really make you feel. I felt something twice but did not cry at the end. I took away something that I had already figured out. Our life goes by so fast, and we are always working on something, growing up,...
