Random Thoughts pt. 6

I just finished making some of the most delicious pancakes I've ever made, in my very humble opinion! I made large pancakes almost as big around as my plate. It was fun! I love breakfast but I rarely take time to make anything more complicated then pouring a bowl of cereal. Today however I really was in the mood for some pancakes. My sous chef(Simon) was equally pleased that I wanted to be in the kitchen cooking something up this morning. He actually woke up from his nap to come see what was going on.

On the list of things to do today is to take exciting trips to Petsmart and Target. Our Target is currently being remodeled it's about to become a SuperCenter with groceries. I'm pleased with this. The location of the nearest Target is better than the location of the nearest Wal Mart.

Last night I talked to my mom on the phone. It was rather funny to me maybe not to her. But I kept thinking of another thought to say. We would hang up then I would call her back with another thought. As I called her back for a third time I asked her if she was starting to question why on earth she wanted a kid so bad? She laughed and jokingly told me I can be slightly annoying from time to time. Lol! What person isn't from time to time though? On the phone during one of our conversations I was trying to explain to my mom how I can see for miles here. In Phx you can't see for miles. You might be able to see down the street but that's about it. Compared to TX it's more hazy, I don't think you realize the haze the city has until you live somewhere that doesn't have that haze. Plus things there are built closer together more compact. Downtown Phx is especially compact! There are definite areas here that are more dense and compact but your ability to see for miles doesn't seem to fade. The land her is flat though, the mountains around the Phx area block many vantage points. It was very similar in Seattle. I could see for miles there too. I lived 15 miles from the Space Needle but I could still see it from my apartment complex.

I love the way the areas are more spaced out and not compact here in the Dallas area! Another plus about living here! I remember reading about how spaced out Dallas is before moving here. Of course I didn't accurately understand until I moved here and was able to see the contrast from where I grew up.


The boys are cozy as I type this!
