<\/a>— 1 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n THE GIANTS ARE GOING TO THE WORLD SERIES!!!!!!!!!!!<\/strong> That was an insane game tonight. I’m glad the Giants won but I am also glad that I got to watch it tonight and that St. Louis played pretty well. One of Jon’s higher ups used to live in Kansas City for a number of years and I’m hoping for a fun series for both our sakes.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 2 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n NCIS binge.<\/strong> I’m taking care of my parents’ cats while they’re up with my grandmother and this means that I have access to TV. I only watched one episode of NCIS tonight but I’m planning a binge of it in the next week and a half. I’ve missed it and while I could theoretically watch on my computer, I don’t normally have a huge amount of computer time so watching it and my other shows isn’t happening right now… except being up here on my “Momcation”.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 3 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n What is a “Momcation”?<\/strong> Essentially, I’m on vacation from being a mom for the next 10 days. It’s a long story as to why but I’m cat\/house-sitting for my parents and Daniel remained down south with Jon and my in-laws. Don’t worry — my marriage isn’t in jeopardy. I’m doing my parents a favor and my in-laws and parents are happy that it’s giving me a break that I haven’t had in 5 1\/2 years. <\/p>\n <\/a>— 4 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n So what am I doing?<\/strong> I drove up yesterday and today, I did errands and went food shopping for myself. I’m planning to spend some time praying and journalling about how to move from the crossroads where I’m at in my life and I also have plans to have coffee with Rebecca<\/a>. Oh yes… also catch up on all the TV I’ve missed, hence the NCIS binge.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 5 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Completely shocked.<\/strong> I weighed myself yesterday for the first time in months (the last time was at a doctor’s appointment) and I’m 3-5 lbs below my pre-pregnancy weight. I guess all the core work, the walking, and other changes I’ve made are helping? I’m wondering if I can’t increase that loss so that I’m down to my pre-Montana weight when I leave my parents’ house.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 6 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Just a thought.<\/strong> Is there any chance that a device could be created that stops all political ads on TV and in the mail once one has voted or submitted an absentee ballot? I voted this past week (permanent absentee ballot FTW!) and I really don’t need to hear about who wants my vote anymore.<\/p>\n <\/a>— 7 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Possible rain.<\/strong> Weather.Com claims we’re not going to have rain in the next 24 hours. My head disagrees! (I freaking love weather change migraines.)<\/p>\n For more Quick Takes, visit Jen at ConversionDiary.Com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" — 1 — THE GIANTS ARE GOING TO THE WORLD SERIES!!!!!!!!!!!
