Ha - told ya so

I have been writing this little daily journal of our goings on for about eight months now and I can honestly tell you it is one of the most therapeutic things I have done in a long time. I mean there are items I choose not to share, I write about them, get it all out and then delete the post, but for the most part we Schmidts - the good, the bad and the ugly are here in print.

I have been trying to get my sister to read the blog because there are many things that only she can relate to, we really have this sick, twisted sense of humor, but she really hasn't taken much interest in our little Schmidt House blogging world until now.

Amy has gone to the dark side and started her own blog... Presley Press (link to the left).

The best part is in her first post she finally admitted I was right - which I knew all along, but I now have it in writing.

Ha.

i find my friends either "get" blogs, or they don't ... funnily enough, it's the stay at home friends that really love it, i cannot get any full time professional women to care tho :)

ah well. glad you got your sister onto the fun, and glad you got to say i told you so :)

I dragged my feet for awhile, too. I was sure this would distance me rather than make me closer to people. Boy was I wrong! I had absolutely no idea how therapeutic it would be, and I've no doubt that Amy will be happily riding our bandwagon in no time.

50 is the new 40

There is hope - I realized today that Madonna is going to be 50 in like 3 months - crazy. 50. Have you seen her lately? She looks amazing and is proof that 50 is the new 40 or in her case 35. Here is her most recent song w/Justin Timberlake, 4 Minutes. Not gonna win a Grammy, but makes me want to start doing yoga, I would give anything for arms like that.

Pleased as punch

We got our new vacuum cleaner last night. The home office was kind enough to pick one up along with our PF Chang's takeout. Take out Chinese on Valentine's is a tradition. Anyhoo, as you can see from the photo we basically sucked up an entire Pomeranian in our upstairs family room. I don't know if I should be embarrassed or pleased. I mean we just vacuumed on Monday with the Hoover and I knew it wasn't picking up everything, but this is ridiculous. The home office was so impressed with the Animal he went downstairs and vacuumed up another canine in the family room down there. I am still trying to figure out all of the gadgets on the machine. I seriously cannot figure out how to attach the stair cleaner. It is really funky how the thing is put together, efficient, but funky. I also for the life of me cannot figure out the directions. I dislike how all European companies, Dyson (UK), IKEA (Sweden) just show you pictures. I always thought I was a visual person, but I am b

Gainfully employed

I heard back last night from Cargill , I start back into the world of the gainfully employed as an independent contractor on October 8 th . My old client, who will now be my new client, Jeff wrote: I'm thrilled we get to work together again. This is the most important project our business unit has taken on in a lot of years so I feel a lot better knowing you're going to be part of it. OK now I'm nervous. Eeek - the most important project? Whoa, better bring the A game, but you know I am excited - scared - but am ready to go. I have so much to do before the 8 th , gotta get the list together to make the most of my kid free week (now that litte man is at daycare in the a.m.). Let's see: 1) Paint basement. 2) Purge house of clutter - how can we accumulate this much crap? 3) Goodwill and library drop off - Maple Grove Library is taking donations until Oct. 6 th !!! 4) Get the yard ready for winter - should I plant more bulbs? 5) Put basement back together - IKEA run ma
