Sunday afternoon

I just got home from Costco.

Asia and I took two cars to church this morning, since he had to take Kyler early to meet a friend who's taking him snowboarding today.

That freed me up to go straight to Costco after church, while Asia took the younger two boys and came home.

Savannah spent the night at a friends' house.

Tejan is now playing at a friends' house. (His social calendar is quite amazingly busy as all his friends try to get time in with him before he leaves... he's in demand. Big time.)

Kyler is still gone. I'm hoping he hasn't broken any bones yet. Or gone off a deep crevasse. (I love saying that word. Crevasse. Crevasse. It makes me feel smart for some reason.)

Savannah isn't home yet.

Asia and Ethan are watching some science fiction movie and E. just told me "Mom, go take your nap."

Well then.

The dog is asleep in her chair.

And I'm about to go take E.'s advice.

Happy Sunday, friends.

    Those words "Mom, go take your nap" might be the sweetest words one can hear!

    I wonder if you got an enourmous bunch of bananas when you went to Costco. Bananas make me think of banana bread....(deep sigh)

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...
