Random Musings: Pre-Spring Edition …

• We had Colossal Donuts this weekend. They were huge and Owlie attacked them with vigor. Isn’t apple juice a great donut companion?
• The Hubby and I saw two {TWO!} movies this weekend. Both were from the comfort of our cozy couch while swaddled in blankets. Both were enjoyable. But please, do tell me why they have to go and completely ruin a movie with the F-bomb. Drives me nuts.
• The entire contents of our closet are strewn throughout our house.  It makes for quite an adventure when getting dressed in the morning.  I’m still searching for a pair of shoes I’ve misplaced. More on the closet later this week.
• The Hubby and I are two months in on a Couple’s Goal to invite a new family from our church over to dinner once a month. It has been a great way to stretch ourselves socially and I’m cooking good food too!
• This week Big C has basketball playoffs.  He’s so fun to watch.  But I get nervous because Hubby is the coach and he yells a lot.
• I had eight kids for a lot of hours on Friday.  I kept thinking “this is what it would be like if I had two sets of twins and eight kids total”. I collapsed in my bed EXHAUSTED that night – and these kids weren’t even hard to take care of AT ALL. I think I was only meant to have four kids.
• I have discovered the glory that is Rub n’ Buff.  I want turn everything in my darn life gold. It is a problem bordering on addiction. HELP. 
• Speaking of addiction, the Girl Scouts brought my cookies to the door on Saturday. I only ordered one box of Thin Mints and one box of Samoas. The boxes keep getting smaller. My family is bigger. The cookies are gone.
• I heard the most inspiring talk at church yesterday about the divinity of womanhood and respecting women. It really made me think about my sons and how they should be a positive influence in the lives of girls around them, my Hubby and how he respects me and treats me with love and even my daughter and how she dresses her God-given body in a time when the messages coming from society are telling her to give it all away. My spirit heard the words that were spoken and soaked them in.
• Rereading the first Hunger Games book starting today.  Gotta get ready for the movie!
• We have had NO WINTER. My tulips and daffodils are blooming. I miss snow. The Hubby got nice boots for Christmas and didn’t even put them on once. Boo.

And that’s about enough randomness for one day.  Happy Monday.
