Rumors of Our Progress Have Been Greatly Exaggerated

I just got this sponsored post offer to talk about the book Rumors of Our Progress Have Been Greatly Exaggerated, it looks pretty cool. I don’t really have a political opinion on anything lately, too much has been going on in my own life to really need to worry about things I can’t personally do anything about, but knowledge is power, and no matter your stance, reading more information can help your decision making process.

It is pretty crazy for me not to have an opinion, considering I am married to the most political person I know! He has an opinion and an idea on EVERYTHING, and gets so intense when he talks (rants) about anything! I guess it is good, because I dont have to argue, I just let him talk and nod my head, usually going over my to do list in my head!

And I know, I know, some of you are gonna say things like “It’s your country, you should care” or “ignorance is NOT bliss” etc, etc. But in all honestly, I am overwhelmed with the things going on right around me, trying to save up for a car before the baby gets here, buying baby supplies, staying alive, cleaning, cooking, doctor appointments, etc, that I just cant waste mental energy on what is going on beyond my control, I cant change congress, I can only stress or whine about it, you know, so why waste that energy?

Baby Shower

So my best friend tiff is throwing my baby shower, planned for July 6th! I am so exited! It will be very casual and laid back, co-ed and mostly people from Joseph’s work, and I have been thinking- you know how they have bridesmaid gifts for bridesmaids? Do I need to get a baby shower thrower gift for her? What kind of thing would be good for that kind of gift? Any ideas?

Baby Room Problems

I am wanting to get the room painted soon but I want to pain it a blue that matches the baby crib site I like from target, since the carpet is blue we are painting it a light light blue and accenting with pinks and flowers. But we cant afford to get the baby crib set just yet, I am thinking of getting just a piece of it and painting based on that, then after the baby shower if no one gets us that set then getting it and hoping it matches! A really light blue shouldn’t be too hard to match huh?

Headaches and Heat

Summer is here, it is officially super hot! We have a pool now, it is amazing, it is one of those inflatable ring pools, about 10 feet wide by 4 feet deep, perfect for relaxing and sunning. I laid out for about 2 hours yesterday. I almost needed a stair lift to get back up to the house when I was done though! LOL

I am watching the newest ‘House’ right now (gotta love DVR!) and once that is over it is time to start cleaning, then… I get to go soak! That is incentive right! LOL

Fantasy Football Software

While I have not had the chance to play fantasy baseball, I have played fantasy football, it was really fun. This software looks really cool, it is web based, ranks players based on a predictive modeling software by PhD scientists, has a ton of info on every player, projections, stats, injury reports and all major updated within the software, AND if you use this code - BMC200, you get 10 dollars off.

The winnings in the football game I played were 500 dollars, and that was just a small game of about 20 people, I imagine the payoff for winning in a bigger league would be much higher, and the money would be nice! I would have to have this software, I would never be able to figure it out without it!

My hubby would love something like this to hang out with the guys, I can just see them now, playing into the night- and leaving me alone! LOL Next step is finding a league for him to join and finding friends and getting the money together to try to get him joined- and of course getting the software for him and all set up! It should be a perfect easter surprise!
