not the kind of stuff I like to post
but I am going to anyway.
I hate it when the depression feels like it has grown teeth and chewing it's way out.
I will get through it, I always have but I still hate it. -
Goings on...
Tabby is running for Leadership Council (Student Council). She has thirty posters (mostly small) and several people making some for her at their homes. Her main poster says, "Tabitha - Spamming the Hallways. Give me Leadership and I will take them all down myself (I meant the posters...Geez....I'm not that crazy)"
That last bit came in because ( Read more... ) -
Convention Prep.
So, we are getting closer to CONvergence. Things are coming along.
I still have many boxes to go through and I have a long list of stuff to do for the Sandbox. That said, things are going pretty well. There has been stress and some last minute headaches.
Tomorrow we go pick up our badges and stuff. That will be nice. Now I just have to make ( Read more... ) -
Currently...
I have been a bit stressed out of late.
I have developed an odd habit of making elaborate meals when I am the most stressed. Karl has commented on this before. I had to be at rehearsals by 6:30pm Mon.-Wed. this week. I chose to roast a chicken on Monday., grill steaks and veggies on Tuesday, and make crepes with 3 different fillings tonight.

Honors Society
Tonight we watched Tabby's Induction into the National Honors Society. Her speech about her plans for World domination received a few moments of stunned silence but eventually went over well.
It worked out well that Karl and I were late because we had to drop Mystrycat off at the Hospital to visit her dad (ankle surgery). Because of our ( Read more... ) -
I made Chicken chili (white-ish chili) today
Chicken Chili, Angie's version (Sure, canned beans and tomatoes could cut the down the time, but I felt like being difficult today)

HI!
I have been social twice this week. All by myself, not in the "bringing my kids places" way. This probably seems odd for me, but I have been finding that working retail has made me crave my alone time more often.
On Friday I got to go out the sageincave and had the usual excellent time. Coffee and tea and good conversation, that's all I need for ( Read more... ) -
Communication
Apparently, communication is something I and my family need to work on.
Today, Saturday, @ 9:40 Mystrycat quietly asks me if I can give her a ride to school because there is a solo competition for band. She had thought that she had worked out a ride with Sprinklekit and her friend L..
Sprinklekit had already had her dad pick her up at 8:00am from ( Read more... )
