My attention span

So, I'd totally blame this on the pregnancy- but those who know me well know that this is just part of who I am. I don't always pay attention to what is going on around me. I wish I were more attentive, and am always trying to work on it, but David has constantly pulled me away just before I ran over someone with my grocery cart or stepped into traffic. I'm clumsy.

That said, this morning I'm trying to be productive. I have errands to run and appointments to attend, and just before leaving the house I decided I'd make a smoothie. One of the blogs I read frequently posted a recipe for smoothies, and how great she felt after having them for breakfast- I guess it inspired me to do the same. I went about adding the ingredients and ice and switched on our blender, and it does what I'm convinced all blenders do. It pureed all the ingredients at the bottom and didn't do a darn thing to the stuff on top. I got out a trusty wooden spoon to push down the other ingredients and would periodically push the stuff on top down to make the texture, uh, Smooth. Then I pulled out the spoon and noticed a sizable chunk taken out of the top. I pureed a wooden spoon, guys. The worst part is, I can't find it in the smoothie because I guess it got all chopped up. So I'm drinking it anyway.
