How embarassing, my dad is starting to put the old videos of our trips to Italy on YouTube

Cravings…

September 30th, 2008 by swaters-rochester

I think I’m going to explode if I don’t satisfy my craving soon.

No, not a craving for chocolate or ice cream.  My raging craving to SHOP!

I usually go through this every month.  Back in the day… pre kid, I would blow a couple hundred bucks no biggie.  Now I have to be responsible since my money is being stretched thin in a few more directions than it used to be.

When I get my “monthly urge”  I stand in my closet every morning depressed b/c I have nothing to wear.  It’s all been worn before, over and over again. I know I’m sounding a bit snobby like Paris Hilton, but I think it’s a girl thing right?

I’m in a clothing funk!  I need cute ankle boots, I need a cute dress I can wear with hot leggings, I need more cute hats, I need to break away, by myself and hit the stores like Danger hits the streets in Grand Theft Auto. Get out of my way!

My fear is that I’ll go too crazy and then feel depressed b/c I spent waaaay too much.

The big debate in my house

September 17th, 2008 by swaters-rochester

It’s only natural for little girls to play dress up.  I remember clunking around in mom’s heels, draping her scarves around my shoulder and putting on her makeup.  It was fun.  Apparently, Danger thinks that will lead to bad things and bad habits.

Like I did as a kid, Leah loves to wear my shoes around the house and put on my lip gloss.  The other night she took my lip gloss out of my makeup bag and put it in her bathroom saying that she wanted to put it on before she went to school in the morning.  It’s a very light pink gloss…I didn’t think anything of it.

Oh Danger wasn’t happy that I would encourage such behavior.  Am I missing something or is it just because he’s a man?
