I have always been a book reader. I turned to magazines when my daughter was small but have turned back to books. I read a lot of romance novels-my mother got me started there. She and her friends trade off books. They were my first supplier. Then I discovered the library's collections. I was taking my daughter for the kiddie books, why not check ( Read more... )

Got home late last night...went to my first Class of '84 reunion meeting. It was fun to see the familiar faces. We reminisced a bit...gossiped a bit. Before we knew it, it was 11pm! We're going with the same format from the reunion in '94-Ice breaker with snacks and drinks on Friday, dinner/dance on Saturday, and family picnic on Sunday. I'm not ( Read more... )

Things to do during vacation:

• Sort through some of my piles (I'm a fan of 'I'll get to that sometime')
• pay all bills
• sew 1-2 scrub tops
• Finish LOTR ROTK
• Call Cathy and Auntie Boo

I'm on vacation! No work responsibilities for 1 week! Of course I already worked my regular hours for this week so maybe I should say my vacation starts on Sunday :) Anyway....time to catch up on a few household things and relax.

I need to get back into an exercise routine. I started walking again this week. I did 1.3 miles without coughing! I've ( Read more... )

My schedule sometimes does this...I'm tired but I can't get comfortable and sleep. I worked Monday-Thursday 11p-7a and now want my body to sleep 11p-7a (the alarm clock is set!) but I can't sleep. Venting isn't helping so I guess I'll try the bed again.

Another week has gone by. A quiet week. The only stress of the week was my daughter's...she had to finish a reading contract. She started the week behind but worked really hard and finished the task! *hug* Short weekend for me...I work again on Sunday. By this time next week I'll be on vacation! A week without going to work! Yeah me! What is nice ( Read more... )

Jon and I survived the weekend without the kid! We bummed around and relaxed. Took a walk at the flea market. Found him a ring....wedding type. The original one hasn't fit for a few years. The new one looks nice! I like seeing the history at the flea market...the way things used to be. It's more interesting than history class.

Just got back from dropping Maddisen at the train station. My mom's commuter train stops in our town so I just plop her on with my mom and we are kid free until Sunday afternoon! :) My mom gave us (my brother, sister, and cousin included) a free weekend each month in January, February, and March. This is the first weekend. The little kids all ( Read more... )

You are the Victorian period...tight-laced and
practical, you uphold the rigorous moral
standards of your time. While you are
fastidious on the outside, you do have a darker
side of opium parlours, prostitution and secret
liasons.
