Nervous Nelly

Okay. Blogger is being freaky today. Slow. Disappearing posts. Stuff missing. So if I try this one more time and my words all disappear into the black hole of cyberspace, I'm warning you now. I may just say a naughty word and call it a day. Of course, then you'd never know, would you?

Today is day three of a three day spree of no outside obligations. LOVE how much I can get done and how much fun stuff I can fit in when I don't have to be anywhere. I've had both the urge to create and the time to do so. I've been able to stay caught up on chores and even take the time to bake for my family. The dog and I have taken long walks, and my bed is made. I'm feelin' good, can ya tell?

I went to Bath and Body works yesterday to stock up on hand soap while they were on sale and use a coupon... I don't know what it is about that store. I cannot get out of there without spending WAY too much money. Words like 'kitchen lemon' and 'sun-ripened raspberry' call my name and I add things to my basket like I'm made of money. I did get a $14.50 tube of "gradual tanning lotion" that actually smells good for free... that's a good thing. The girly with the apron told me she'd been using it for a few weeks and her skin was the most gloriously unstreaked shade of tan I've seen in a long time... hope it works. I'm all for color, but very anti-sun. Wrinkles, you know. Oh - and there's that cancer thing too.

I'm going to be stingy with my time this morning and sign off. Lots to do.

Enjoy Spring today, wherever you are... isn't it glorious?

    I love BBW too. My new favorite is the Romance line. Just *love* that lotion. Anything "sun-ripened" is awesome too. :)

    I gave up trying to look tan a *long* time ago. Irish skin, just won't have it and that whole "cancer thing" too. *LOL*

    Spring is very hot & humid here, but I am still loving all the color back again!

Good morning, peeps. It's Friday. There's frost outside this morning. *FROST!* This week has been ridiculously chilly. I'm having mixed feelings about blogging lately. Mostly because I feel like all I've been doing is whine about being tired. Or overwhelmed. And because comments are lacking. And because I can't seem to think about anything to write about except Tejan. And because some of the thoughts I'm having are too private for the blog - or too repetitive. Or too unformed to turn into actual words you all could understand. So I'm struggling a bit. And yet, I'm committed to documenting the process I'm in. So I'll keep writing when the words come. And when they don't, like this morning, when I looked at that intimidating blinking cursor and my mind went blank and I started to break out in a cold sweat and began by talking about the weather... well, then, I'll just gracefully (or not so gracefully) back out of the room... tail between m...

Missoula Children's Theater

Last week Savannah and Ethan were both cast in their school's Missoula Children's Theater production of Red Riding Hood. Savannah was cast as Mother Hood and the Grandmother, and Ethan was Robin Hood - the Hood family's cousin from England. After five days of intense rehearsing, (four and a half hours every day after school) they were ready for two shows on Saturday afternoon. It was so fun for them. And fun for me, as I was one of two parent volunteers with the privilege of being at every rehearsal. I come from my own childhood experience of many opportunities with theater and musicals, so watching them experience the thrill of performing was awesome. It was an amazing week. I'm so glad they had the chance to do it. I loved that instead of having to commit to weeks and weeks of rehearsals, they just had to do this one really intense week. A full scale musical production without a month of rehearsing and I didn't have to sew any costumes! That's my kind of pla...
