That feeling...

Yesterday it was a rainy day and I just so happened to get "that" feeling. You know that feeling...


  • I need to be productive
  • I need to get something done
  • my house is busting at the seams with all sorts of things
  • i need to clean out something
  • we need to start a home project
  • i have stuff laying ALL over the place
  • we need to clean out the back room in the basement
  • nate is bored so I need to make him do something such as clean out the garage, or the shed, or back to that basement
  • okay let's start the trim in the breezeway...Nate...go to home depot it's only 10am and you can still watch football later but your wife is having anxiety about things that need to get done so just go do it...
  • i still need to go to the grocery store for the week
  • try to do all of this while grey is still sleeping....hah...yeahhhhhhhhhhh right
  • if only we get one of these things done i'll feel better...yeah that's the key right?
  • what am I going to cook tonight? maybe shrimp...yeah that sounds good?
  • great Nate gets back from Home Depot and they don't have what I want...yep that sounds right?
  • okay then move onto pictures...yep I have been meaning to blow up some pics of Grey so just get that done at least...?
  • Nate is still bored because what I was going to have him start didn't work...okay Nate then you need to clean out the breezeway (room before you enter our garage) and you need to put all of your fishing stuff AWAY because I can't look at it anymore!
  • And that fish tank that we got for Christmas is looking really cloudy so Nate....you have to clean that out too....you know the rules I don't want a fish tank if it doesn't look clean...
  • and now I think I hear Greyson....he's up from his nap...so do you know what that means....NOT much will get done......yikes.....ahhhhhhhhhhh.... what are ya gonna do when you get "that" feeling???
  • I know one thing for sure...always keep your hubby busy especially if he has a natural inclination to get real antsy real fast...

Well I wrote the top half yesterday morning and now on this actual Monday morning I'll just let you know what we were able to get done...

We did go to the grocery store as a family of 3. However, it was okay because the lady at the deli counter gave Grey a garlic bread stick so that lasted him the whole time. We were laughing the whole day because Grey smelled like garlic-it was cute! (shout out to D babe on that note.lol!)

I did cook some fresh shrimp up...we have been using this recipe since we went to Florida with my Uncle Mark who lives out east and knows these types of recipes. You get this seasoning Old Bay (shout out to Ange on this one as well-those southerners know good food.lol) and it's a 1/2 cup of water and 1/2 cup of vinegar and then the actual seasoning(bring all of this to a boil and add in your shrimp and then boil for 3-5 min depending on amount of shrimp you have. We LOVE it (Nate and I) and it's super easy. Grey was spitting out the shrimp but he gobbled up the fresh green beans I steamed. (Ps. the shrimp does have a bite to it...so don't try it if you don't like that sort of thing...)

Nate and Grey went and bought some new fish for the tank and Nate did clean it out so it is very clear again...;)

I did order the pics I wanted of Grey also... 4 8x10s in black and white of that cute little face are already home and in the 4 black frames I bought.

And Nate did organize his fishing stuff in the breezeway so I felt a little better.

Then it was 4:30 and Nate headed to sidetracks. Grey just woke up from his nap and since neither of us had showered yet we hopped in the shower. Grey loves to hop in the shower with one of us but we try to make it fast because it can get a little tricky at times!

So there you have it folks...I did not get everything done on my list but some of the stuff!

Happy Monday everybody!
