Hmmm, i googled to find a picture and Wiki just enlightened me once again and said that this book was originally fashioned from twilight fan fiction....yep i'm getting that... ha.
ok now i'm getting seriously online distracted b/c they are saying Ian Somerhalder from my beloved Vampire Diaries could be playing Christian Grey, in the steamy movie they plan to make. sigh!
ok now where was i before i got distracted by romance/erotica novels and pictures of cute guys who play vampires...
yes, my week. up until today pretty busy and maybe i dare to say semi productive. i didnt exercise yet as much as i really should've especially since i had icecream w/ Erica and fries w/ the kids. i stress eat and its been a little stressful on the boyfriend front lately, but really no excuse. i did get some exercise in though :)
Thanks to my dear angela dollface, he he lily thought her last name really was dollface, i love it...she pushed me to do my jillian workout tape this week. I struggled through but it was worth it :)

Then me and the kiddo's decided to walk over to Bonnie Doon for dinner and icecream not healthy at all , but i didnt think i should have to cook on mothers day, especially after doing the disthes. i only ate about half of it, and we had a nice walk, the weather was perfect for it.
i love this pic. they were so fascinated w/ the river, which i found so funny since its right across the street from our house...
mmmm icecream! almost as good as the vanilla coke i had..ok i had one and a half :) and chocolate chip cookie dough icecream in a waffle cone!! yum! there are no calories on mothers day right...
I did a little housework, yes on mothers day, i've been trying to keep up on it more...its a struggle for me. I watched some girly movie and got to bed early...oh no, i watched Mad Men <3 love that show...i love that time period....betty is awesome. but that christina hendrix! love her! and that hair! oh yeah Don is super sexy also..
and The Client List, its so good, i just love Jennifer Love Hewit :) I forgot how much i like her!
Great sunday! Nice and relaxing!
my dollface sent me this awesome card in the mail for mothers day! i love love love it! it went right on my bulletin board!
Monday night we had alot of people over for Game Night.
We hadnt had game night in quite awhile and hadnt really had people over much either.
it was a good excuse to clean. Timothy of coarse was last minute and mowing the yard when people showed up. We ate and drank and played games till pretty late. We had Melissa, Aldo, Sara(who's just going to have that baby any day now), Matus, Miles, Vanessa, Victor (vanessa's boyfriend), Nadja, Jordan, Angelina (jordans girlfriend) & Uncle Joe. I love my other family and im so glad we can all get along so great! We definitly will have to do it again soon!
i really wish with all of us there that i'd gotten a picture, but none :( we played The Game of Things and Apples to Apples, i wish it didnt have to end.
Tuesday had date night plans with my Erica friend! we had tried to go to Brewsters awhile ago but got distracted by me getting a tattoo in Michigan City but i'll have to get to that in another blog, it was a fun and crazy night, it deserves its own blog! but Tuesday was quite nice. We sat out on their patio and had pizza's and wine and didnt get to use our coupons that we printed out b/c pizza isnt an entree? but we went to Oinks and got icecream after, shhh dont tell anyone, it was the tastiest thing! i had mackinac island fudge! mmmmm! once again i fail on the picture taking skills....wish i wouldve gotten a few shots b/c the patio was quite lovely. the weather was great and the company always a pleasure! was nice to catch up w/ erica and just chill. she snapped this cute artsy photo of our tasty wine!
and here is one of my pizza, i got roasted garlic, walnut and prosciutto. it was a little salty but over all good :)
on our way to get icecream that we wont speak of...we saw this man in his lawn chair sitting there right on the main road and i swear he was there last time. its odd, i want to know why he's sitting there...its not a very nice and scenic spot...and there was alot of construction...i think next time we go i'll have to ask him!
i really love hanging out w/ Erica. she's very easy to be friends with. We talked about how its almost been a year since we reconnected and how it seems like its been a long time but at the same time it seems like not that long ago. i think that often about things...like that in the fall tim and i will be together 10 yrs...wow
were does the time go?
Wednesday i went to Emblazon to get my hair did by my fabulous friend Jennifer and my good friend Ms. Rebecca was working it was nice to hang out. and i decided finally after going back and forth all week if i was gunna just get a trim or chop of my hair. i got a trim and some bangs and went with what i call "My So Called Life Red" ive always been a huge fan of red hair...and of my so called life!
why oh why did Claire Danes have to not want to do another season. that was the bestest show back then! and dreamy Jarrod Leto! yum!
this pic is so 90's with the plaid, reminds me of highschool for sure.
jarrod is so much dreamer now w/ his sexy 30 seconds to mars voice!
ok getting distracted by hotties again....

Wednesday Night
after getting errands situated and spending over an hour completely frustrated w/ the oven not turning on, me and the kids got on the road and headed to St. Joe to see mom :) We made lasagna, smores and played scrabble :) was really great to see mom, its been awhile and to get out of town for a bit.
she bought a tricycle and we tried it out...its really kinda awkward to ride. it was fun the kids had a blast.
I tried to make my mom some cool pictures on wood like i saw this lady do on pinterest but my pictures were plasticy on the back and just didnt turn out :/ i will have to do some research and try again...
ha i just did a quick read of the comments and it says to use a picture from a laser printer...not a photo sonja...ok we'll try again another day...i dont think my printer is a laser printer :/ bummed!.
that brings me to today...didnt do much today...more laundry, more dishes...turned on the pizza oven...picked up the kids oh and dropped them off...ate lunch...oh and spent all morning reading 50 shades of Grey! i totally needed a stay in bed chill out and read day! its been too long since i've gotten lost in a book so much that i dont wanna put it down to even go to the bathroom or check my messages :)
im almost half way thru...i might finish it tonight....i also borrowed Sarah's key from her, tim and i just watched the movie, it was awesome. The little girl who played the lead was great. its completely sad and about the jews in Paris but i loved it. it will be nice to see how the book compairs to the movie. i love when a story combines past and present :) we studied the holocaust in jr high, reminded me of all we learned back then, and the museum we visited in Chicago.
middlesex was one of my most favorite books that did that, traveled through severeal generations of a family. im totally interested in family history. wish i had time to get back into my family tree project :) some day
How about some quotes :)
i need to get off the computer and eat some dinner before it gets too late...yay for leftover lasagna :)
did i mention that i use to make lasagna with my mom when i was younger. its one of the few things i remember making with her :) makes my heart happy :) it was always such a production the layers and time it took, i tried out oven ready noodles for the first time, awesome! love it! :)
this is very wise advice. i think that the happiness project book touches on this :)
you know enjoy the moment. dont spend too much time trying to be happy
and get things perfect just enjoy the moment
right! we expect things to be all easy and laid out for us,
they never are. love this photo!
have i mentioned lately how much i love Zoey D! she's just adorable. ive been keeping up on my New Girl! If you havent seen it, its too funny, and Zoey is awesome!
i just smile every time i see the new iphone w/ siri commerical w/ her in it :)
well hope you all have a most pleasant evening!
would like to take a moment to throw a few things i'm thankful for or that made me smile this week that i wasnt really maybe aware of :)
Erica told me she likes how i write on my blog :) i feel im a complete mess and have no structure and how could anyone actually enjoy that. ha :) it made me do a little happy dance inside :) and sweet to know she read and enjoyed my blog
Angie, well angie always makes me smile but she sent me some email love and that cute card, made me feel special :)
Justin at GFS mentioned to Josh how funny i am on facebook, its funny how not amusing i think i am, and its always odd when i realize someone who you dont realize reads your posts mentions something you say or do.
tyler made me so happy, and instantly took me back to being his age when he brought home this book from his library fieldtrip...which he checked out with his very own library card! Looking at those picturs was like a time machine! I love love loved the Berenstain Bears! and that was one of my favorite ones...
as was this w/ the junk food!
but my all time favorite, inside outside upside down. ha i thought it was so clever. ha
good night all. hope you have a very berenstain type of day or night...
tootles...sonja!
