Well the turkey is gone, though there is a bit of pumpkin pie left - I feel a little like Alice's Restaraunt - ate another Thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat - yesterday will the drag uncles. There is so much to do these days - at work, at home, for the holidays, I just can't seem to get it all done - as my grandmother always said "I am ( Read more... )

Monday morning - sitting at my desk - we sure crammed a lot of weekend into the weekend!  Lea arrived in town Friday night finally, after hurricane Humberto delayed her flights!  She was originally scheduled at 11:30 PM and finally got here after 1 AM - G and I had to nap while waiting to go to the airport.  Saturday Lea was off to Cleveland to ( Read more... )

SIREN:  a call to celebrate womyn's power -  also know at the Ohio Lesbian Festival - was this weekend and what a weekend it was!  I am not even sure where to start - it could take multiple posts to chronicle the layers - but think of it as a layer cake - or perhaps laminated plywood  - the first layer or main ingredient being water -  in rained ( Read more... )

And today is one of them!

It all started at 7 AM when we discovered that the cat had peed on Caelen's brand new back pack, all her school notebooks and her summer homework...

After wailing and gnashing of teeth we got through that moment and dropped her off at school.  Hi Ho Hi Ho  it's off to work I go - only to find that the parts we were ( Read more... )
