coming to the page saturday...

dark saturday morning
heavy still
even after pelting rain through the night
waking me in a panic feeling
fierce and loud...
comforting kids at 5 am
scared the power might go out...
now i'm tired and dizzy
not looking forward to the wedding this afternoon,
not looking forward to work,
wishing that i could just crawl
back into bed
and wait
for the sun
to come back
again.

friday-i'm-in-love...


* it's sunny! {too bad i have to work til 6}

* getting a chance to celebrate my grandmother's 85 birthday with her...
she had a hard year this year but she is really pulling through...
and so funny...telling us that her birthday really isn't until tomorrow,
so we can all come back and do it again then...
and saying that there is no reason we can't visit...
we all have cars
and gas has gone down, you know.
i heart my granny.

* finding this yesterday which just may become my new favorite...
ever since i stopped drinking diet drinks because i was scared of the
aspartame, yet haven't been able to stop drinking pop (i like the fizziness)
i feel like i have about ten pounds i just can't lose...
but now i can have water...that has flavor...that has bubbles...
edited to add....boo...it has aspartame.
happy friday!!

5 really good things on a wednesday...

-following directions on a star wars website to draw pictures...and being pleased
with the results...{can be seen bigger if clicked, i think}

-another gray day but it's ok, cause i have to work anyway...the
good weather can wait for the weekend...

quiet...


due to
unexpected bladder infection,
getting caught up at work after a
week's vacation,
2 day headache brought on by
bladder infection medication
and well...
general not-having-anything-to-write-about-ness...
i have not been here much...

but today
it is rainy
and dark...
and the house is semi-clean already...

but still...
i haven't much to say.
