The best workout ever...

So, since I quit my job and decided to stay at home, I've been getting a little stir crazy. So I hit up my step dad for a favor.
Please, oh please, let me waitress a few nights a month (this is a dramatization, I did not beg, I asked politely). Anyway, so I've waitressed a couple Saturday nights at the Brass Rail in Grandy-another sidenote, my Stepdad is co-owner-, and MAN OH MAN, what a workout! I am completely sore, and when I am done at the end of the night, I feel like I could just fall right over! Holy Canoli! Who would've thought?!
I have to admit, waitressing is a lot harder than what it looks. I'll take working with the mentally ill population over waitressing, hands down, but it is a great way for me to get out a night or two here and there, and make some great money, and talk with a lot of adults. So, keep your fingers crossed that I can get in to the swing of it, and get better and better at it, so that I can really enjoy, and not stress out that I am doing a poor job. I have to admit, I bet I look hilarious running around like a chicken with my head cut off!!

Other than that, I love being at home! I love my life right now and I am looking forward to every new challenge that comes along! I've been going to guitar lessons, and that has been a good outlet for me to find a part of myself and to have some "me" time, even if it's only getting out an hour every week! But I love it!

I also started up another passion of mine again, writing! I think that will be a great way for me to reconnect with myself, and figure out if that is something I can really do well.

So, not much else is going on, but I am going to make an honest attempt to write here more with my friends, I miss you guys and reading up on how life is going with you, and I love running in to some of you from time to time!!

G0d Bless!

Chad and I love going to the Brass Rail, but the other waitress...the older lady...is really rude to us. We had horrible service. :( We'll have to come sometime when you're working. Let me know!

I can just picture you running around there like a chicken with your head cut off - ha ha...Waitressing is EXHAUSTING, you are so right. It feels lame to be so sore and tired after it, but its like every little piece of you is involved non-stop! I'm loving this life of yours though Meg - how cool that you are pursuing things you love (writing, guitar, etc...) Inspiring! :)

There are two kinds of people: Part Two - The non-movers

Coffee cup in one hand, veggie/fruit smoothie in the other. No seriously, that's what I have on each side of me as I write. I'm smiling because of how funny this is, as it seems to also relate to this conundrum of a topic before us. There are two kinds of people, and there are definitely two kinds of beverages.  My caffeinated beverage on my left brings me a one sided joy that I cannot even begin to detail. I love my coffee. And I really do think it loves me back. At least for a while. As I peer out of the corner of my eye to the right, I see the greenish grainy drink to my right. Today the fennel seeds in it do not make it seem as dirty  I mean, like I just gathered them from the dirt without rinsing and sprinkled them in there kind of dirty. Maybe it was the splash of OJ I decided to add to it this morning. Now, I know that this drink loves me. It is good for many aspects of my life. Health, energy, sustenance, power. But I do not enjoy it as much. When I make my ...

Round two!

I got to come home for a little bit and play with Brady and Halle, give them a bath (me a shower) and then laid them down for a nap. I took some ibuprofen, I think I have an overdose of a "caffeine, lack of sleep, still wearing my contacts" headache! So now I am going to try and nap a little and then it's back to the hospital with Shelby for round two of SLUMBER PARTY AT THE HOSPITAL WITH A SICK BABY! Not worthy of all caps joy, but I'm trying to be optimistic about it all! So we had a rough night last night, she didn't sleep for a full hour from 9-1am, then she had a bit of an issue with her nebulizer treatment (meaning she didn't like it) and then her IV came out. Yadda yadda. Finally at 3 am she was ready to settle down and then she slept till 7am. On my chest. Luckily I was tired enough to get most of that sleep as well, until about 6:30ish. I just feel so bad for her! I felt bad for me a little too about 1:00 am. I wanted to just cry my eyes out from bein...

Who did we welcome home TODAY????

Shelby Capri Bergman 6 lbs. 5 oz. , 19.5 inches long May 30th, 2008 10:52 pm I just want you all to know that everything went picture perfect. She's beautiful, she's healthy and she's very content. I don't have a ton of pictures yet, my mom took pictures during delivery and I took some today when we got home, but since we don't have internet at home now, it will be slow coming! I had my membranes stripped at 9:45 am on Friday. Afterwards, Tom and I went to Walmart, Applebees's, my sister's classroom to help move some stuff (I supervised... I was a little sore), and then home. I took a nap and Tom started getting ready for supper. His 4 hour long, grilled ribs...and that is how the story begins! So we keep joking that I am going to go during his first trial run with the ribs. This starts at around 3:30 pm. Then, we run out of propane and start all over a...
