Golfing with The Finkledinks

Ahh, yes. Another glorious Saturday night in Tremont. We went to Duck island to see Dave Hammer play, and had! A! Blast! Duh, we're rockstars.
It's crazy how much fun we have when we get together! Seriously, you should meet us out next time. Totes.

Random thoughts:
I hate it when I lay down for bed, and realize the light was left on and I need to get oUT of my snug nest to turn it off. Lame. #justsayin
Also, I being without a vehicle. It's getting on my nerves, and I need to find/buy one asap. Now, if I could only find a decent one instead of some pos listing on Craigslist.

*le sigh* goodnight, universe. I'll catch ya later or I'll catch ya on another time...

Is this real life??

Still thinking positive, even though it's pretty crummy right now.
The car didn't work out (transmission=poo), so I'm currently on the prowl for some decent wheels.
KT came over and I tried giving her a guitar lesson. I don't know if I'm a good teacher, or if I'm completely spazzy and annoying. Tough call.
My son has an ear infection, so... There's that. Aahhh.. Hmmm! Gosh- what else? ...
I am thinking about giving this blog some kind of "pow" or zing. Something that might stand out or get people to read everyday. How about having a funny/fun quote for the day? Something I made up or heard in a film? Hmm, we'll see!
Party on, Wayne-

'We used to wait'

Sundays are my favorite. Most of the day is spent laying around, but I think that's what's so great about Sundays. Ollie and I had some quality bonding time, and we colored and played "Simon says" for a bit.
Family dinner tonight was delish! Flat dumplings and chicken! Yumyumyum!
Family gatherings usually means family spats. My roommate's kids argued (as siblings do) and I felt wedged in the middle. *ugh* It wasn't that bad, I just felt strange. And it made me miss my little sister and brother.
I'm hoping to see my family soon! I was able to find a car yesterday (thank you, Eric! thank you, Paw!!), so I should be able to make the trek to see them sometime soon! Woop! Woop!
I'm currently looking for an apartment. Holly helped me make some sort of budget, and I'm thinking I'll be fine. I'm interested in housing near Coventry- so, like, Cleveland Hts area.
Wish me luck!

The Pumpkin Cake

Totally delicious

Left Out of Tee Time

Tonight was full of family visits and good food. Holly made kiniflis (spelled however) and pumpkin layer cake! Delish! Savannah and Jason left to meet up with Heidi, and I'm stuck staying in. At first, I was already sort of sleepy, so I didn't care. But now that Ollie's sleeping, I wish I'd been able to go. Oh well. You can't always get what you want...

Having a toddler is full of surprises. One minute I'm completely content, and the next he's fussy or annoying in some way and I feel slightly bipolar. There are moments when I just want to walk away from him and lock myself in a room and sit in silence. And there are times when I wouldn't want to be any place else but on the floor playing Toy Story games together. It's a roller coaster of emotions, and I can never predict when the ride will go up or come down.

Ollie's in bed now. He looks so sweet and peaceful when he's sleeping- it almost breaks your heart. I just love this little guy to itty bits, no matter how much he gets on my nerves.

Friends For Dinner

Dinner: Chipotle
Friends: Jeskuh, Justin, Sammy, and yes..Patches

After spending most of the day working at the salon, it was quite lovely to hear from my pal, Jessica Swann. She is great for cheering up/good times. Sooo, she came to get Ollie and me for a fun night in! Woop! Woop! We grabbed some Chipotle, and headed to her place! Magical times would ensue!
I always enjoy our little visits. Although, I wish they would occur more often (hmm- WHEN WILL I GET THIS FLIPPIN CAR?! rats!). I really do love how I can just be completely, 100% at-home with her and Justin.
One of the many set-backs to being a young, single parent is being able to "hang out" or do ANYTHING without worrying about your child. Jessica is always welcoming to my son, and she never makes me feel like a burden or unwanted. She makes me feel just how a great friend should make you feel- loved.
So, like I said, she's pretty much the coolest.

Oliver has been so defiant lately. He says "no" to everything I say, he wants to yell more and more, and it's like pulling teeth trying to get him to bed. I think a lot of it is his age, but also the moving around and situation. I can't wait to get my own apartment. At least then he will have his OWN space, and I will establish some kind of stability in both our lives.

Well, I am off to enjoy tonight! Thanks for reading!
