A couple of helpful hints to all the locals out there

Two things I found out yesterday:

#1 The post office is increasing the postage from 42 cents to 44 cents on May 11. That being said if you buy the forever stamps (currently 42 cents), you do not need additional postage once the cost goes up. The post office dude who I think was flirting with me (either that or he was bored out of his mind and needed someone to talk to because it was dead in there), told me this information unprompted. :)

#2 If you ever need to copy anything and you live in my area, there is a copier at my local Schnucks.

Holy shit, it's been a while

Sorry, it's been so long. My only excuse as of the past few days is I have a cold. Before that, I have no real excuse. Some updates

I've been continuing to exercise 3 days a week (minus this past week because of vacation and illness). I started to lose a little bit of weight but then I went on that vacation and didn't exercise. As soon as I'm well (and energized), I will be going back to the routine.

While on vacation we visited the St. Louis Magic House. Curious J loved it. And while he was there, J used the potty standing up; I think it was because it was a J-size toilet and a J-size sink. He was super excited. In my quest to continue his interest, I purchased a urinal from amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Visionaire-1100-Peter-Toddler-Urinal/dp/B000C22J2S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=baby-products&qid=1239730854&sr=8-1. It got good reviews and because J has ZERO interest in using the potty any other time. I also bought him some cool underpants so he can pee like a crazy mad man through all of them.We'll see how it goes.

Okay, I'm tired and my nose won't stop running. Off to bed.
