Kisses & Disses | Ranting, Laughing, Crying

 

Welcome to Kisses & Disses.... 

the part of the blog where I divulge my latest likes and dislikes from the past weeks.

It all started early last week... I was blatantly trying to avoid puking for the 10th time in 2 hours and decided a mid-morning shopping trip would do the trick. I wandered through a neighborhood antique store, browsing for trinkets I just could not live without. Low and behold... I scored on an vintage baby cradle. Within 3 seconds of spotting it, I had to have it. Baby #3 has to have some new swag {well, in this case, very old swag}. Who cares that it took up the ENTIRE back seat of my car to transport home? I mean, who wouldn't understand letting their 4 year old ride in the front seat of the car just this once? I mean, jeeezzz, she wanted to take one for the team {don't judge me}. 

As I pull up in my driveway, hubby comes out to help me unload the "beast" of a cradle into the house. Being such an analytical  engineer buzz kill helper, he looks at the cradle and doesn't say two words. Granted, I am almost jumping up and down with excitement over this magical find. I patiently wait

for his response to my incredible find, and all I am met with are "crickets"... {as in the sound of crickets because the silence is SO deafening} I shrug, and defeatedly make my way into the house... reminding myself that there isn't much that gets my hubby excited.

This leads me to this weeks kisses & disses.....

DISSES

- husbands not understanding how important rare, 1840's cradle's are to their wives

-Lord help me, I swear hubby carries a stale loaf of bread in his pants so he can 

scatter crumbs Shawshank Redemption-style on my floors.

- Pregnancy insomnia... so reading is cool, but not when you read an entire library worth of books every night! 

-Listening to hubs OBSESS NAG SEARCH DREAM dive me NUTS trying to find an iPad2.... DUDE CHILL OUT.... you'll get one eventually, and PS buying the dang thing so you can watch movies on the plane less than once a month is a little ridiculous. 

- Antique dolls. Not sure why, but they freak me out!

KISSES!

- Anything related to Pride and Prejudice. I just finished 2 books by Sharon Lathan extending this incredible love story. I can't wait to read the next 4 books in her series!

-Dr. Pepper, enough said

- Staring at my spin bike {because it's just as good as riding it}

- Preparing for the tasting show this weekend at Camas Meadows {let's hope I can manage to NOT forget anything vital; like my sample albums, or price sheets, or a pen for that matter}

-Depression milk glass because it makes me feel like I'm listening to a Harry Connick Jr. song while sitting in a rocking chair on a porch at sunset.
