Thursday goals...

So it's probably a bit mundane to post about my goals, but since I 'm the only one reading this, I see it as a little online to-do list.

Here's what I'd love to accomplish today:

  • Scrapbook one page just for me - no class projects, no design work - just a page of family photos for my family scrapbook.
  • Sweep and mop the kitchen floor - my LEAST favorite chore in the whole world - but I would feel fabulous to get it done today, before it's actually so dirty it's driving me crazy.
  • Fold all the laundry.
  • Call the Express office to find out about the possibility of E. going one day a week next year.
  • Do a chapter in my bible study.
  • Compose an email to my girlfriends asking them to pray about our situation with S.
  • Go to the bank and the store to buy clipboards for the altered clipboard class.
  • Make dinner.

There it is - for better or worse. A to do list... let's see if I can manage to get it all done.

So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want. So today, in light of mid-winter doldrums, I want you to answer the following three questions. To escape mid-winter doldrums, I like to: My favorite winter memory is: I know Spring is coming when: Okay, friends. Now it's your turn. Go to it.

The floodgates have opened.

So, I was doing pretty well managing my emotions. I kept telling people that I had processed a lot of my grieving over Tejan's departure back in January - when we were so close to saying goodbye... and so that must be why I wasn't feeling overly emotional about it this time around. I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well. I didn't tear up - or need tissue for any fluids defiantly leaking from my facial orifices... until I made the a...
