Random thoughts I feel like sharing

Last week sometime I mentioned that I was tired of wearing pants and jeans that never fit right. Since then, with only a few small exceptions, I have worn primarily dresses or skirts. Why? Just because. I have long legs and a very short round waist and a larger than average chest. As a result, it's really hard to find shirts that fit right, pants that don't sag in the thights while being too tight in the butt, etc. The right dress covers all these ills. I don't plan on going back to pants any time soon.

The amazing Mindy Gledhill is currently touring in Bulgaria! She's singing in orphanages. And if all goes well, she's going to keep blogging (and even twittering) about it. She's a great blogger. If beautiful singers touching the hearts of orphans sounds interesting to you, you should really check out her blog.

There are Girl Scout cookies in my house. That's all.

In the few short weeks I have lived in my house, responsible for a lot more than I ever was before, a lot of things have changed. Whereas Saturdays used to be about sleeping and relaxing, now they are suddenly all about home projects. Painting, fixing the toilet, organizing the garage, etc.

Did I mention my house has arguably the nastiest yard in the neighborhood? Apparently the geniuses that lived here before me really trashed the yard and the house before they left. Now that the snow is gone we're getting a pretty good look at just how badly the yard got trashed. It's less a yard and more a large patch of dirt with weeds growing in spots. This week the HOA president stopped by to let me know that this is "unacceptable" and that the homeowner will be fined if the yard doesn't get fixed up. My yard is THAT bad. Thankfully, it's not my problem. But still, just a little embarassing that I have to live with it.
