I’ve decided that there won’t be any grandiose blog goals this year. Posting everyday? Probably not going to happen. Getting 10,000 readers? Dream on.
I’m pretty lucky if I manage to put a bra on these days. Or wear matching shoes out of the house. Or remember things you told me 30 seconds ago. But I think I can manage to post at least once a week. A week in review. This way when I forget everything in 30 seconds I have a record of it, and you can rest assured I haven’t thrown myself fallen into a well.
Trish’s Week in Review 12/31/2012 – 1/6/2012
Monday
New Year’s Eve baby! My parents were here so we all dressed up in our finest attire and hit the town for drinks and raucous behavior.
OR…I put a Snuggie on, stuffed my face with pigs in blankets and let my baby hang around naked all night. I’ve heard it both ways.
Tuesday
We watched the Rose Parade. Twice. I ate an entire bag of puppy chow by myself. I wore the Snuggie again. Don’t judge me.
Wednesday
I don’t remember Wednesday. I really don’t. But I’m pretty sure I didn’t put a bra on or leave the house. I probably just spent the day watching Wyatt scream his face off look adorable.
What? The kid likes to be naked.
Thursday
I got this in the mail:
I’ll never be under-caffeinated again. My dad is awesome.
Friday
I decided we’d get up and hit Sam’s Club and Walmart before it got busy. Apparently, that’s impossible around here. I’m not used to living around so many freaking people. I suppose I’ll adjust. Or I’ll just keep getting into fights with people in the Mall of America parking lot. It’s a long story.
Saturday
I don’t remember Saturday either. I might have put a bra on. Probably not though. Oh wait, I think I paid some bills. Yes, the sounds of me whimpering when I wrote checks to the hospital do seem vaguely familiar.
I think he meant to give me two thumbs up for free-boobing it. But he’s just a baby so I’ll let it slide.
Sunday
We went to breakfast and to Target and to my new most favorite place on the planet: IKEA. I bought a bunch of things. And I assure you I needed all of them. One, in my opinion, can never have too may cheese graters. You just never know in what manner you’re going to want to grate some cheese. Am I right?

Your NYE plans sound a lot like mine, minus the naked baby. Target & Ikea all in one day? Hells yes! The last time I went to Ikea I spent like 5 hours just wondering around & lounging, pretending I lived in each of those models haha.
Your week sounds incredibly similar to mine, sans baby (mostly just a bunch of pajama-clad boys playing Wii). I was, at one point, forced into wearing a bra AND pants at the same time, so that was kind of a bummer…
I think I need a Snuggie.
Oh man – I am just coming back to reading blogs after a crazy few weeks. I am so glad this was one of the first posts I read. Hilarious. Did you get that cheese grater that fits on top of a container so you can store it in the fridge? I have 3 of those. Love them.
We don’t have an Ikea, NOR have I ever been to one, so WAH. But girl, if you can go bra-less and get away with it, why in the heck would you ever wear one? I’m a super-leaker (TMI?) so I am wearing a bra 24/7 these days. Only a few more weeks until freedom (bra freedom, that is). You rocked that Snuggie btw.
the ikea you went to is the only one i have ever been to and i want to go back and spend 10 hours there. also…i still hardly put on a bra…and my child is almost 3. it’s really a sad thing.
I had a little conflict in the Sam’s Club parking lot last week myself, so I’m with ya. Can’t take me anywhere. Your little man is growing fast! And I don’t have a Snuggie, but I was in my flannels on NYE…last time I remember was 11:45. Oh well.
Hallelujah for snuggies and Keurigs! 😉
IKEA is one of the best places on Earth.
