Right This Very Minute

I usually tend to write a couple of posts at a time, and schedule them to post a day or two in advance. That means that you very rarely hear what I am thinking about right at the moment you are reading it. So today, this Friday morning at 7:52 AM, I will give you a list of the things that are currently on my mind.

- Ethan's kindergarten graduation is today. He is so excited for his performance. He apparently has a solo of some kind. I can't wait to see it.
- Ethan's kindergarten graduation is today. What in the world are we going to do for the entire summer???
- He's also having his ears checked at 11:15 this morning to find out whether he will need tubes for the fourth time. I'm really hoping and praying that they look good.
- Why, oh why did I forget to tell Lara thank you for helping me figure out how to change the font on my titles? Thank you Lara. (And thank you to Amanda for writing the tutorial.)
- Christian is taking the EPPP two weeks from today. It's the hardest test he will ever take. (By passing it, he will become a licensed psychologist.) How can I help him prepare for it? I know, I'll ask you guys to add him to your prayers. Please pray for Christian.
- I'm craving Costa Vida. But I had it for lunch yesterday.
- Why didn't I buy chocolate at the store yesterday? I'm pretty sure I don't have any lying around here...
- Nope, I don't. I'll have to make a grocery run later today.
- I have noticed that Google Reader is having problems bringing up some people's blogs again. If your blog isn't posting to the reader, there is a way to force it. Go to your reader, click on your blog so that it opens up on the page, and then at the top of the page there is a button called "refresh." Click on it and your new blog post will appear. Go back to the main part of your Google Reader and your new post will be up for the whole world to see. I hope this makes sense.
- Why is potty talk so funny to boys?
- Should I actually do my hair, or go the lazy way out and put it in a barrette?
- Barrette it is!
- I have two hyper boys right now. Must be because it's the last day of school.
- I have got to get off of this computer and get ready for the day!

What is on your mind right this very minute? (You know, besides blogging 'n' stuff.)

So, how do you change the font in your titles?

And I hope that Google figured out that glitch with IE and that I can access everyone's blogs today. I guess it had something to do with the Followers widget, which is why I wasn't getting that with my blog.

Shauna said...

I am excited it is Friday YAHOO!! Hope you have an awesome weekend!
♥ HUGS ♥

Lara Neves said...

I am freaking out that it is the last day of school. It always takes me by surprise.

My kids are also being crazy. They're leaving in about 5 minutes and I will have a few hours to get a million things done. Which I won't bore you with, but that's what I'm thinking about! :)

Me (aka Danielle) said...

Whats on my mind? I need to go finish drying and stylin' my hair. But I don't want to. It would be so much easier..if I was a guy!

Barbaloot said...

I can't stand potty talk!
Have fun at graduation!
I think one of the worst things ever is when you are "good" and don't buy junk food, and then later you're bugged that you didn't because you NEED it.
Hope you find some chocolate.

Britt said...

Last day of school? I still have two weeks!!!

Potty talk is still exciting to boys even in 8th grade.

Christa said...

What's on my mind right now:

1. I forgot go comment yesterday about your new post title and sidebar font. I love how it matches the font in your header. Very coordinated.

2. Laundry. Actually, it's always on my mind.

3. Desserts. I'm really trying to resist them.

4. Making my own soymilk.

5. I really need to take a shower.

6. My muscles ache from yesterday's workout.

7. That my list might be getting too long for a comment.

Christa said...

I meant I forgot "to" comment. Not "go" comment.

Whitney R said...

I love these types of posts. I always type mine and post them with in 15 minutes. I should probably pre write some - it would sure be easier at times.

On my mind...
going to go on my walk/jog (wog)
need to pee first
should I wear shorts?
I have super hairy legs, but who will see?
no one... but is it warm enough?
should be... I need the sun on these pasty things, I think I'll wear shorts.

:)

Laurie said...

On my mind:

I need to do laundry so all the pink clothes my girls own are clean. They're going to a Pinkalicious party today!

I need chocolate. The 2-month-old Mini Snickers aren't cuttin' it!

School ended yesterday here. I don't want to go anywhere because all the school kids will now be everywhere. I don't like crowds.

Christie // lemon squeezy home said...

Signing the kids up for swim lessons, taking back the game Carson forgot to give back on his last day of preschool, dishes, laundry, reading my scriptures...so much that I need to get off now!

Liz said...

best wishes for the kindergarten graduation, and best wishes for the summer

Liz said...

Kimberly Vanderhorst said...

You are so cute! I want chocolate now . . .

I noticed your cool title fonts yesterday but forgot to say anything - looks fab!

Elisa said...

What am I thinking right now?

Crap. Thing 2 just missed the bus.. cause we have TWO MORE WEEKS OF SCHOOL.

Crap. Why does Moxie insist on climbing, and then getting stuck?

I'm kindof a random thought spewer... I like that.

S said...

I hope everything goes/went well for you and your little brood today!

On my mind right now:
-life is complicated.
-Masters? Yes/No?Linguistics/TESOL/French Pedagogy?
-apply for the job with UNESCO so I can stay in France? Or no?
-I wonder when the paintings I worked on this morning will be dry. They're in my way.
-my super cute new red flats made my heel bleed. But only the right heel. Wierd. Totally not enough to make me stop wearing them.

Meladie said...

I love your random posts! Funny, we're heading to the ear doctor for Taven today too! And I'm hoping and praying we can get tubes ASAP!! This will be my second kid with tubes...but we've never had to get them more than once! That's too bad for you. Maybe we'll see you there...hope not though cuz our appt. is later and then that would mean they were WAY behind! Good luck though!

Lee said...

Hope the graduation went well!
Could you tell me what font you used for the title of this post? It's really adorable!

Wonder Woman said...

• Glad you posted the link about fonts. I meant to ask yesterday.
• It's funny to me that Pink's new song reminds me of a book Annette Lyon wrote.
• I need to stop blogging and pack for camping tonight, but I just CAN'T STOP MYSELF.

I think Hazel's fussiness might mean she's hungry, but since I feel like I've already spent the whole day nursing, I'm hoping she's actually just tired. Going to try putting her down for a nap as Plan A. (Wish me luck.)

Heather (wife, mom) said...

I'm wondering when infants beginning sleeping through the night- and at the same time praying it's sometime in their 3rd week of life. :)

Also thinking about the laundry: thinking I need to switch to the dryer and start a new load.

Should I take the time to put in my contacts (their new and it's not easy for me yet) or just go another day without?

Anne-Marie said...

Yes! What is with the potty talk & boys??

Denise said...

Erin, I'm going to add my email here-hope that is OK.
denisepjorgensen@comcast.net. I'm thinking right now that I need to start typing parts others are going to read in the lesson I'm teaching sunday.

rachel said...

I just want to take a nap and I have to schedule getting pics of the toddler taken that I don't want to get, but I want to have...does that make sense?

Karen said...

On my mind right now: Will this day EVER end? 51 more minutes of work ....the phone hasn't rung for 2 hours....I'm getting all my blog reading done but I want to go HOME!

Jessi said...

I just finished watching 7 Pounds and it was very sad.. but good. and weird. weird.
I want to take the kids miniature golfing tonight but Justin says they're too little.
I'm still gonna take them I think.

That's about it.

Isn't it funny what you're really thinking about when you stop to realize it? ha ha

mCat said...

Right now I am thinking of how I can talk Splenda Daddy into me getting Lasik. Mmmmmm

Rachel Sue said...

I'm going to have to check out the font turtorial. I have been wondering about that for a while.

Missy said...

Prayers for no tubes and for passing the test~ :)

Anonymous said...

-Yeah--only 7 more days of school!

-I wish the stupid Angels game would end already.

-Why do I have a crazy tendency to fall in love with literary characters? It can't be healthy. Yet, I can't stop.

-I need my husband to stop being so stressed. It makes him too distant.

-I'm excited to go with my oldest two girls to the temple tomorrow. It's #2s first time.

-Maybe on the way I can do some excommunications for the dead by lusting after those imaginary men...

Kate said...

What is on my mind at this very minute is how much I need to get done before we leave on our trip to Disneyland tomorrow. Have a great week.

Heidi said...

Wow, you're a busy gal!

Malachi and Layne said...

On my mind...hate work,want a baby, fertility doctors are expensive, wish Malachi made more money, Church is overwelming, hungry, glad my parents livr close, house is messy, Reunion is so soon, need to loose weight, hate work, haven't seen Erin in forever,wish I could go visit!

Heather of the EO said...

I'm thinking

1. I like you.

2. I'm tired.

3. My back hurts

4. I'm whining.

5. The weather here in MN is FINALLY beautiful and we're wearing ourselves out having so much fun.

6. I love the Ethanisms and Aidanisms in your sidebar

The End :)

nikkicrumpet said...

THe font on your titles is pretty darn cool. You need to give us all a tutorial now that you have it figured out! And right this minute the only thing on my mind is whether to keep blogging or take a nap....a nap is starting to pull into the lead.

Sara @ Domestically Challenged said...

I need to know who to change fonts, I am off to check that out! Hope your weekend was great!

rich and steph said...

We had so much fun at Colton's kindergarten graduation. 4th kid to go thru it and one more to go!! I posted his video and the singing - so cute!

tiburon said...

I love the snapshot posts! So fun to see what people are doing right.that.minute.

Cranberryfries said...

I know you did this a while ago but I enjoyed reading it.
Also I think I like the dashboard follower (I have only tried google reader a few times) but it never seems to have glitches. I just scroll through to see the latest updates instead of having to check everyones. (Do you have to check everyones with google reader or does it just show you the latest ones?)
