Happy Monday People!
This weekend was pretty crazy...
Friday I went shopping at the mall, not a mall I usually go to and I parked in a place I dont usually park.
I spent 3 hours there...and a whole lot of money! hehe. When my achy feet finally decided to give up I went to where I thought my car was and realized...I had NO idea where that was! I swear I walked around that mall (literally) in the snow for 45 mins. Constantly missing where my car was parked. I have no memory! I don't know what is wrong with me! Early stages of dementia? It was terrible.
Then I went to my friend nikki's house for some apple beer and movies, and convinced her to go out..I wish I would have left that alone..we would have had more fun staying in. Too much drama!! Let's just have a good time..
Sadly most people, when feeling crappy about their life want to make other people feel awful too. Honestly tho, knowing how it feels, why would you want someone else to be that miserable!?? (note: this is not about nikki! lol, I will ellaborate later..)
Saturday: and approx 4 hrs of sleep later..I got to teach dance to the cutest lil dancers ever. I love my saturdays at the studio. When I teach other days it's fine, but my saturday kids will always have a special place with me. :)
After dance I took my two muts Sophie (pitbull) and Marley (yellow lab) to the groomers. I thought sophie was going to have a heartattack!! lol. Both her and Mar have been making more visits to the vet rather then the groomers. So both of them were pretty frightened. Feeling guilty I bought them toys and treats and they have already shredded most of the three toys. When they are happy..I am happy too!
Then it was off to Olive Garden to meet up with Syndal and Stene for some yumness. Too bad we had to wait forever!! Stene brought baby Farrah...Katja has baby fever like something fierce! :) I could hold a baby rat and still be like "Awwww.." AGH! Good thing my uterus on lockdown! LOL
After OG Syndal had to run off to Pete who was babysitting by himself..I am sure he was doing a great job!
Then me and Stene parted ways to get ready to venture out to minneapolis for a long overdue Stene n' Katja Crazy night! "no men...Amen!!" hahaha.
We started out at our normal place Drink..but WHOA! Has that place gone down hill or what!? People were just nasty. Freak nasty. Not for me. We finished our one drink and left that place stat!
We crossed the street to the 508 club. To much to my surprise I immediately felt better walking in. The night progressed rather rapidly after that, as it usually does. Drinks, shots, some nice dancin' a whole lot of pushing and couple random run ins..like rob from high school..shout out!-lost some weight and big rob is no longer big.. :)
Another friend from high school was celebrating her birthday. Claudia Sanchez..we crashed her table and devoured some oddly delicious spongecake..and the remainder of the liq..eesssh
walking back to the parking ramp is always the best part...the pictures, the people, the absolutely insane things we do or attempt to do..not to mention drunk dialing our friends who didn't come out. Syndal...I'm sorry.
I love stene. She is like me in the fact, that we are determined to have a good time when going out..and most of the time, it's just a state of mind and your attitude!
Smile..throw your hands up and live a little!! Woo Hoo!

Missing my Heart
I would like to shout out to Julianne Oster. She is my Dance teacher, Friend and Boss...and today is her birthday. She's like 40 something, but has the bod of a 21 yr old! I heart her and all that she does. She puts up with me, listens to my rants and I try so deperately to do the same for her..but most of the time I just tell to dump that guy cuz she is worth SO much more! Anyways, I digress....
Last night was the adult tap and jazz class. I take this class (and teach it often enough) with a few of my besties. Numero uno, my love and bff forever, Hadiya aka Dee. Tina..I teach her daughter Kira on tuesdays so double dose of Tina..Woot! Can't Forget Jamie! I teach her son Taylor on saturdays. He's a jem and She is the sweetest..
Class went as usual. Angela brought her baby..(and nice momma physique) to class. Her name is Maya..and she is the cutest. Darn that precious thing..she just had to get all quiet and googley with me. Agh I missed Bella so much it hurt. Bellas dad and me are switching her weeks and most of the time I just dont know how I manage without her.
Maya made me think back to all the moments of when Bellaboo was so tiny and fragile and how there is nothing sweeter than the cries, coos and lil angelic smiles of a baby and how fast it goes by. You think your going to have it forever. This past year has been a gift and a struggle. Most mornings without Bella I just stand in the shower and cry pathetically. I know she would be just as crushed without her dad, so I just grin and bear it. I fear every moment she is a away she just learned something new without me or I just missed that perfect smile and that contagious laugh...
I dont know how she is really taking this and I worry everyday. I just hope last year I made the right descion. I dont want her to ever suffer because of me. Bella is my world and seeing her unhappy is the worst feeling ever. She is my heart, my soul and my everything. Love you Bella. Momma is ALWAYS thinking about you.
I started today with the intention of writting about crazy asian dude and super sweaty booty bump guy from the bar last night and how me, tina and dee celebrated julies birthday without her..but I guess there was just something else wanting to get out.
Can't wait to leave work..I'm going to therapy!! a.k.a. going shopping!! hahahaha. Buying Bella some new clothes and toys for her birthday. I'm thinking mani-pedi too.
Happy Friday!!
......Gawsh now I have to fix my make-up!......

Blogs, Policeman and your daily dose of word vomit...uh I mean actual vomit.
I'm SO excited to have comments...and followers..hehe..tardo happy dance moment!..
k-all done!
I need to edit my blog and make it so cute as all of the blogs I have been reading are.
I have so many things to get out of my head but until I get a firm grip on this whole thing, I am just going to banter on aimlessly..
I only facebook and blog at work, mostly because it's the only time in the day that I can actually sit and think. I still manage to get heaps of work done too..which is nice.
Today was pretty interesting. Odd and interesting. I work near downtown Saint Paul and the WEIRDEST people come in here. Its like a stopping point for capitol workers and people who take the city bus..just so wide that it astonishes me.
So today a lady came stumbling into our dept, she was kinda loopy and very sick looking. She followed the walls around to the entry doors and seemingly threw herself out ..then she began to trip over herself til she reached the curb. I felt so bad..from what I gathered, she seemed pretty together, not like a junkie or something. She could have been diabetic, having a heart attack..I don't know.
Then as me and co-worker peered out the window, because we have nothing better to do. We saw her start to vomit..and she continued to vomit..for a while. I wanted to help her but I really didnt want puke on me.
So security came and escorted her inside. She then had a 'problem' with her coat zipper and the lady from security tried to help her. This must have gone on for 10 mins..what a stubborn zipper!! lol.
She mummbled something on her way out about being hungover...drinking something..feeling sick. (like we didn't get that!!) We couldn't really make it out. 5 mins later an ambulance showed up, followed by saint pauls finest.
I just don't understand people most of the time. Their behaviors or reasoning. If you are at home..and drunk, STAY THERE! Don't go wondering around the city. If she hadn't wandered into Sears she probably would have gotten hit by a car or unknowingly mugged when she passed out. I wish I could help people. I really do.
Hopefully I get this all figured out soon and I can start gushing about my friends, family, the 2 loml's Marc and the greatest small person you'll ever know..BELLA. :)

The Working Class..Bu'ya! Who's up for Ice Fishing!??
I have a question...
For all of my 0 followers...haha. WOOT!
What praytell is the temperature at your work?
I will start by saying, I work at Sears. No, not the Sears your thinking of..there is no 'softer side' in the disconnected, barely insulated, FREEZING COLD parts department!
Yes. Parts. The place you come when you need a thermal fuse or a lawn mower belt...the place you just learned about when you read it just there...yeah, It exists.
I am pretty certain that this department, that I co-manage. (eesssh) is set at a lovely 40 something degrees...
There is actually a gust of cold air that comes charging at you as you enter it from the main department store.
Isn't there some law against making people work in such a frigid enviroment!??
We tried to create some sort of "boycott"....hahahahahahaha. They sent some bitter, obviously underpaid and overworked repair man here, who just pointed out things we already knew...
"Yah-your heats goin' riet up der in the ceilin', gonna need to vent theat down, for suure" (excuse my minnesota typing talk..its much better in person I swear!) It seemed so promising!! He even came back with another guy and they brought a ladder! I thought for sure it was going to happen. Heat I mean.
Instead this grumpy, leather skinned repair man gave us some tips..like how to keep doors closed and how to do some other stupid things...resulting in NO additional heat.
This was back in early December..may I remind you that January is the coldest month in Minnesota!..? "
Oh and BTW that whole need to vent thing..Never happened.
Oh yeah...YOU BETCHA!
Still cold!
So I will continue to sit at this desk huddled up to a 1500w heater pretending that its making me warm.
Thanks SEARS!

I'm pretty sure starting a blog on a monday means Doom....
With not even a second thought I decided to start a blog today...not sure why, or if anyone will read it, but here it is!
"Intro"
My name is Katja. You may also hear people calling me Katy, Katedog, Kat, KitKat and most importantly..Mom. <3
I have a to be 4 year old daughter named Bella who is actually going on 14...don't be fooled.
She is the sweetest and most incredible little girl who like most children, says the craziest things.
I have two nephews who I don't really understand because I have a girl, but I love anyways!
My family is pretty small but they are the greatest. They keep me laughing and smiling. I see them every day and I intend on keeping it that way. Nothing is as important. ...(not even shoes..but a nice pair of pumps runs a close second!)
I have a long distance boyfriend who I am absolutely nutso about, he the sweetest, most thoughtful and delicious man I know!
I am creating this blog so I can put my thoughts down and laugh about all the weird things that happen to me on a daily basis. I want to blog about my life. My daughter and being a mother. How fantastic and tormenting it is. How My boyfriend Marc is amazing! I hope you read it and get inspired by yourself as you in inspire me. My crazy family. Having a small house and 4 animals....and maybe a "how to" on dealing with dog hair and that funky canned cat food smell...
My life is most often out of control. It's messy, busy, silly...enchanting at times and normal at most. Yet always fun and always mine..I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Most days....
