Chip and Kim

OI! we just watched the finale of this seasons' Amazing Race. I was so happy I almost, well actually, I did have tears in my eyes!

I also am well aware that the rest of the universe already knew that Chip and Kim had won but we managed to protect ourselves from that information. So how far behind are we in TV land? I still don't know what happened on Friends!

Ah well, life is pretty good if this is my grandest concern.
My little light of Heaven turns 2 tomorrow. I never thought Elias would have such an inquisitive nature. He's a busy guy with a world of things ahead of him to discover. My prayer is that he makes good choices, especially after he's already made a wrong one. Good thing to understand that even if you've done something estupido, you can always start over with a clean slate. My prayer for both my boys. I'm sure they get annoyed at me praying over them nightly, near waking them and then smothering them in kisses and snuggs. and trying to will God into their hearts.

So, 2 years ago, my little Elias came to see me and hasn't left my side since. Just the way I like it. Happy Birthday my little poopy pants boy, you are the epitomy of smiling. Thanks to God for my boys, and my life. And for washing machines too.

the sands of time, Days of our Lives...?

So, as the days go by, another 365 passed by me and I am now a flippin' 36 years old. I think, I'm either 36 or 37 but I think it's really 36 cause I'll never ever be THAT old! I've spent alot of time looking at myself(no, not in the mirror, I would only laugh(or cry) depending on the day) I looked myself up on the internet. There are a ton of Kara Robinsons' who have done amazing internet worthy things and none of them are me. I used to think that I'd be able or be energetic enough to do note worthy things with my life but when it comes down to it, I am lazy and always deject myself into the realm of "aw, in the end it's not really worth it" "it won't make much of a difference" "suppose it's not really what I'm MEANT to do?" self defeating garbage like that. So, Halloween has come and gone as it does. It's always been more about the costume than the birthday party and never actually worth any effort to throw a big ole party and now, I sit wondering why I have made some of the choices I have. Not really big ones like marriage or children or even Fiji are on my mind, but things like, taking extra coarses, applying myself to things other than me and even something as 'simple' as remaining healthy.
Choices.choices.
Every fork in the road you take determines not only your future but your past. I never realized that I might want to look back and have a moment of pride that I had done something noteworthy. As I type this at 0700am I have made a choice to blog and leave my almost-2 year old to his own devices. He is eating a popsicle and digging through my wallet. -think melted popsicle and ants..tons of ants...and change everywhere- I must make another choice to leave my thoughts for another few days (year)until the planets and universes align to allow me ten more minutes to blather.
This vain moment brought to you by the makers of Kraft.
(aww, I dream of KD it's only been a year)
