Friday Confessional

It wouldn't be Friday if I didn't get a few things off my chest.

• On some days, I'm up to three Pepsis a day. Yikes! I don't drink them for the caffeine, I just really like them. I need to cut way back before we think about another baby. I think 3 is still under the caffeine limit when pregnant, but I tried to stick to one a day when I was pregnant with Avery.
  
• A minivan turned my head this week. I am not knocking any minivan drivers out there, I just have never really been drawn to them. I love, love, love my Enclave and would be happy to always have one or one of it's GM siblings. I actually fear getting to three kids and needing something bigger. A van wouldn't be any help there, but I did do a double take of a Toyota Sienna, and the new Honda Odyssey is looking pretty snazzy too.
  
• I am loving Maroon 5's new song Never Gonna Leave. It just sounds like summertime to me. When I hear it in the car, close my eyes (well, not really) and try to feel sand between my toes. Then I try to figure out how long Avery and I could make it at the beach with what I have in the car, if I were to keep driving.
  
• I am not even close to having 40 bags for Lent. Let's be honest, I'm not close to 10. Sickness rolled in with Lent and thwarted my plans. I hope to do some purging this weekend.
  
• I am going to have major clothing issues in the coming weeks. I got rid of a lot of things last year so I would have to buy myself some new clothes for spring. But, I haven't. Avery however may end up with a different outfit for each day of the summer if I don't get control of myself.
• I may resemble a three-year-old taking my cough medicine at night. There may or may not be stomping, jumping, heaving, and running for something that will take the taste out of my mouth. It's horrible and now I feel horrible for all the medicine Avery has had to take in her short life. People always rave about cough syrup with codeine, but I have not found it to be impressive. It has worked on the cough at night but has not knocked me out in the sleeping department. I keep saying I'm going to throw it away, but then night comes and I start coughing even more...

Happy Friday!
