Listy Friday

Posted on the 17 May 2013 by Karaevs @KaraEvs

- The other night I woke up to go the bathroom and didn’t realize that I had slept in a funny way so that my right leg went numb. I stood up and immediately crashed down to the ground, hitting my head on an open dresser drawer. I just laid there, waiting for the feeling to come back while in a slight state of shock, and Kyle heard be fall and rushed over to help me get up. (He thought I tripped over the dogs and dislocated my shoulder.) Other than a bump on the back of my head and a sore shoulder (not that one that’s prone to dislocations), I’m fine. Although, when I went back to sleep, I dreamt that Kyle got into a fight with an octopus that tried to eat him whole, and Daphne got into a battle with a seal. They both won. I DON’T EVEN KNOW.

- Kyle and I are having a dishwasher installed into our rental unit. Happy renters, happy life! The process is going so well, and it will really help increase the resell value a little if/when that time comes. (Which won’t be for a while because there is zero equity in it. Womp-womp.)

- Isla’s learning how to give kisses, and they’re the most hilarious open-mouthed kisses ever. I can’t tell if she’s catching on, or if she’s trying to eat my face.

- Kamloops just recently had a Target open up, so Kyle and I went there to check things out and compare to Walmart. I must say – it was a little underwhelming. For my American readers – Ya’ll have it so much better. Our Target, so far, just seems like a cleaner Walmart. Maybe it was because it’s brand-new and our Walmart is currently being renovated, but it was brighter and cleaner, and that’s about it. The prices were about the same for most things. I’m going to go back this weekend I think and check out more of the housewares section, as well as the clothes, but yeah – Underwelmed is how I’d best describe my experience.

- I really want to do Crossfit, but I can’t get over how unbelievably expensive it is. I tried it once a few years ago and really loved the fast-paced workout, but again – the cost! It’s just too much :( I suck at working out at home and lose motivation so quickly. Blarg.

- How is it that Isla will be 1-year-old in a month & a half? Time goes by too quickly. I need to start thinking about planning her big day, and I have no idea where to start. As much as I’d love to make it as amazing as Pinterest shiz is, it’s not happening.
