Brain Wandering...

Another long day without Husband...he had a day trip to The Other Big City and isn't home yet. It constantly amazes me how exhausting two toddlers can be when they outnumber you! Ugh...finally got the kiddos into the tub. I kid you not, the entire bathroom was covered in water by the time they were done. Dry them, jammie them, and plunk them in bed as fast as humanly possible...squirm, squirm, squirm...My kiddos never stop moving:oThen I curl up with Trader Joes Mac N Cheese (have you tried this...ultimate comfort food!) and my second Coke of the day (bad me). Wouldn't you know it...score, a CSI Miami rerun! So, now I am working on a custom illustration header. I really love Illustrator, I just wish I could do more with it...I want to master different styles of illustrating. Don't get me wrong, I really love the stuff I have been doing. Truth be told, I am a bit shocked with how well I have been doing:) I just want to have more depth to my designing (I don't know if that makes sense, it's just what's kicking around in my head).
On the running front...still going quite well. I ran a total of 18 miles last week, and I will probably hit 20 this week. For 18 weeks out, that's right on target. At some point, I have to throw some weight training in...ugh, this is usually my downfall, I really need to hold myself accountable on this one.
One last thing...I am ready to explode waiting for LOST tom. night! Between LOST, and Sex and the City, I can barely stand it!!!

Wine...not Whine.

I am finally sitting down with a glass of white wine...*exhale* It was one of those days...you know, where the babes cried and fussed all day. They did take naps (thank God) but they woke up cranky, cranky, cranky! Of course, Husband barely made it back for bedtime...so I had to do dinner by myself. The end of the day just gets hard, especially when I have to do it alone with two cranked out toddlers. So...I am having another sip of wine, and trying not to sound like whine;) Thankfully, I can report that they are both silent...yay:) The Little Man shrieked for a while before finally finding sleep:P
Are you all watching Idol? Did you see Simon after Fantasia sang? 'Nuff said. Everyone is crying...I've had enough of crying for one day. I say David Cook wins...the end.
Speaking of cranky...I have been cranking out blogs for folks. I don't know if I have hit my illustrating stride yet, but I have really come a long way. Guess what...I can draw! Who knew? I draw it first, import it to Illustrator...and go from there. Today's illustration...Yes, I drew this...not that I'm tooting my own horn or anything;) This one is for a new blog of a Mom who is training for the Iron Man Triathlon! I just had to turn her into Iron Mom the super hero:) I really like how it turned out, so I thought I'd share.
That's all I got...looking forward to LOST tomorrow, now I'm gonna go watch Syesha get voted off Idol...
