Ten on Tuesday

  1. Why, oh why do I list things on ebay? Because that means I have to go to the post office. I hate the post office. *whine*
  2. Here it is, almost a year after we finished our kitchen remodel and I still love EVERYTHING about it. Especially my fridge. I didn't know I could love an appliance, but I do. As I was digging through the freezer this morning looking for an ice pack for E's lunch I though "I love my fridge." Silly.
  3. My new favorite CD? Edwin McCain - Messenger. Wow. What a voice.
  4. Gracie has claimed our Larry Boy plush toy as her own. Poor Larry's eyes are chewed beyond belief. I wonder if there is a home for the blind in Veggie Tale Land.
  5. The weather? 29 degrees this morning. Brrrr!
  6. I made chili and corn muffins for dinner last night. Does anyone remember Kenny Roger's Roasters restaurants? I have their corn muffin recipe and it's TO DIE FOR! I could eat ten. But I didn't. I ate one.
  7. Gracie got a new collar the other day. She had outgrown her last one. The new one is olive green with orange and yellow dots - so cute. Matches her pretty fawn coat beautifully. Spoiled dog.
  8. Class today - Anna Griffin. Easy peasy.
  9. Working today to get the first edition of the school newpaper out... it's been fun, but I'm frustrated not knowing the program (Adobe InDesign) well enough to really know what I'm doing. Looking into a class offered by the school district to help with that. I love the photography I get to do for the paper - and found an amazing program to help make photo collages. Check out Lumapix. Very fun.
  10. Time for a shower. Wish I didn't have to do that every day. So boring.

Have a terrific Tuesday, chums!

Happy Birthday Cathy! , originally uploaded by Pink Paper Peppermints . All of these sweet bloggy friends threw me a cyber-birthday party! How fun is that? Thank you, dear friends. I am touched. It's really just what I needed today. Sweet Tanya even made me a cake. If you want to follow the party around cyber-space, you can go to Melissa's blog to see everyone who is participating.

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. 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...
