Snow & Balance

It's snowing.  It started about 9:30 tonight while I was in Target doing another round of Valentine clearance shopping. I was unsure whether to stay in for awhile and give the plows time to clear or if I should get going before it got worse. I decided to forge ahead and made it home fine. Only spun a little when starting at a green light once. D'oh.

Today while walking through Target, I saw some of the children's clothes and thought, "That's not appropriate." It made me think that I am going to be the most over protective mother ever. And that scares me. I don't want my children to live in fear or be ridiculed or be otherwise negatively affected by my overbearing ways. But I, of course, don't want them to be negatively affected in any way, which is why I would be overbearing. Have to find a happy medium. Hopefully my husband (whoever that may be) will provide some balance. 

Adam and Emma didn't come visit today because Emma has been sick. Poor baby girl. I got her the cutest Hello Kitty skirts for her birthday, though (90% off at Target, of course). I can hardly wait for her to try them on. We'll see if I'll be able to wait until April to give them to her. I'm not great with waiting to give presents, I like to give them right away!

Presents: made me think of the blog post when Ronan came to visit and brought me flowers and a present. It doesn't take much to remind me.  Driving myself insane in the membrane! I have to find someone else to get my mind off of this. I'm going to lift the moratorium on friends setting me up, methinks. I'm so done-zo with obsessing over it. Can't I just have a normal relationship? Where's the balance there? It's, "Let me move to a different country for the love of my life" not, "Let's go out to a movie on Friday." Of course, the feeling of the love of your life is so much stronger and tips all the scales.

My x-ray came back normal. Which is good, I guess. However, it doesn't give any answers. I'll be at a specialist tomorrow, though, so maybe I'll get some insight then.

Here's a video for my current favorite song. Some of my fave lyrics, "I belong with you, you belong with me. You're my sweetheart."
