So What! Wednesday (on a Thursday)

I am SO GLAD that my fellow blogger friend is back to doing her So What! Wednesday posts. It's been a couple years since I did a So What! post but I think I will bring it back...for this week at least;) I can't guarantee anything since I feel like I barely have time to sleep!

This week I am saying SO WHAT if...

...it is actually Thursday now? I did start this post on Wednesday night, so that counts for something, right?!

...I can ONLY listen to rap while I work out? I have tried to watch Full House on the elliptical. I have tried to listen to Luke Bryan. I have even tried to listen to Justin! But, alas, my favorite gym Pandora station is 2000s  hip hop. Old habits die hard.

...my house is never clean? I have just come to the realization that my house will be clean in about 16 years. 

...I get busted all the time for throwing away kid art? All. the. time. I promise I do keep some, but I can't ALL THE THINGS.

...a combination of Trump and Target bathroom issues have led to me unfollowing have of my facebook feed? My brain just doesn't have it in me.

...I over-document my kids? I just love their guts and want to remember these stages!

...I have to drink water ALL DAY LONG in order to not want a Diet Coke? Giving it up has been easier than I expected, but I am literally chugging water all day.

...all I wear 80% of the time is work out clothes?

Whew. That felt good. Happy hump day. friends!



So What? Wednesday

Today I am saying SO WHAT if...

 

-'So What Wednesday' isn't even a thing anymore? It's basically all my brain can formulate right now.

-I consider myself lucky if I get to wash my hair every 3 days at this point?

-I cringe every time the boys drop a toy on our new hardwoods? FORTHELOVE LET'S NOT SCRATCH THEM.

-I want to finally get back down to my wedding weight (ha!) but have Z E R O motivation to work out?

-every time Cheney has a bad night I get all sorts of nervous that she will turn into the baby form of Griff? Remember that time I had a kid who sucked at sleep for over 2 years? oh right, it's still happening.

-my 2 year old is still very much attached to his paci & I very much am not concerned?

-this season of The Voice is making me have a major girl crush on Gwen Stefani? I LOVE HER. How does she not age?!

-my car looks like we live inside of it? It's like the place that snack trappers go to die.

-I chopped FIVE inches off of my hair simply because Cheney was always ripping it out of my head and/or spitting up all in it?

This week I am saying SO WHAT if...

• I can't remember the last time I went out on New Years Ever? Overrated. Just call me mam maw.
• I sat in my pajamas on my couch last night & was in bed by 10:45? No worries, Griffin made sure I didn't miss out on the late night party. We "partied" all night long.
