this is my favorite picture of sophia and me...right now.

...in some of her ways, not all of them (i must spare blackteeth). One way I'm becoming like her is waking before everyone in order to get stuff done. I woke up this morning and even before I sat down to my cereal I fed and changed Sophie, aired out the house, watered the lawn, took the trash to the curb, fed and watered Digger and Smokey, did ( Read more... )

Our computer is down, I repeat, our computer is down! It's not nearly as bad as a cell phone being down, but I'm realizing how much of the computer I use on a daily basis. Blackteeth and I are waivering between purchasing a new monitor or just getting a new computer all together. But if we choose the latter, that won't happen until I see my tax ( Read more... )

My Spa party is coming up! It's a week from today, 6:30, my place, please call to RSVP. Gloria's even bringing her massage chair. I'm excited. Please come and let me pamper you!

What a beautiful, beautiful, beeeutifool day it was today. I was at the Landmark all day today, but I did manage to leave when the sun was just setting. This weather makes me want to sing, dance, and accomplish things. I have a list compiling in my head. Gardening, spring cleaning, Milo's room ( Read more... )

This morning around 4ish I felt Milo kick me with my hand. It felt like the softest of thumps. I've been feeling him/her move for quite sometime now. It's the most amazing thing. I love him/her so much already.

Yes friends, today I am thirty. That would be the first time that I've written that statement. Thirty! Even at 25, 30 seemed old and so distant, but lo and behold, I have arrived. And it's really not that bad. It doesn't seem real really. What's thirty anyway? I'm beginning to feel that you are as old as you act. I'm beginning to feel like ( Read more... )

I'm excited about all the things I get to do today. Emphasize the 'get to do' part. I was faced with the fact that I have had so much free time in the past. Too much free time. So much free time that I think most of it might have been wasted. I've been learning to value my time and to use it wisely which include errands (things I have to do) ( Read more... )

No subbing today. I guess I'm low man on the totem pole. Fine by me though. I still have to go by the EOC to drop off that app, get my blood drawn, and lo and behold, yes, I still have to go by Babies R Us. It's noon. I need to go. But not before I vent for the last time about a certain reality check that I had yesterday. There are people in ( Read more... )

Omigosh. I had no idea how easy this process could be. I just got back from turning my application into Central Unified to start substituting. No more Mondays at the Landmark! Yippee! She said I could even start tomorrow if I wanted. Geez, why didn't I do this sooner? Things at the Casket have been slower than molasses in the past, but this is ( Read more... )
