Ten

  1. Be sure you read the poem post below. It makes me laugh.
  2. We are so ready for school to be out around here... ready for not having to be anywhere at any specific time...
  3. Piano recital next Monday... the kids are playing pretty darn good... it's fun to see them develop their skills.
  4. Didn't get the Easter decor put away yesterday... yikes. I'm such a loser. But I did get five loads of laundry done and my whole studio cleaned. Yay!
  5. Been thinking a lot about change lately... feeling a little restless. Looking at house listings in the newspaper. Wondering if there's something different we should/could be doing... I sure wish Tejan would come. That should help with this longing for something more... something different...
  6. Krochet Kids has a blog. I wrote about them awhile back - you can read it here. Anyway - they're a group of college and post-college guys who have started their own non-profit - teaching women in Uganda how to crochet, and then selling their beanies here in the states as a way to employ them. I bought a beanie for E. at church a few weeks back. Anyway - the blog is a fascinating read... so proud of these young guys stepping out and living a crazy dream.
  7. Got my reminder post card for my annual dentist check-up. Ugh. Better start flossing.
  8. I'm working all day today... and dinner is already in the crock pot. Love when I can manage that.
  9. I'm hooked on The Next Food Network Star.
  10. Happy happy Tuesday, friends. Smoochie smooch.

    Anybody who can get 5 loads of laundry done in one day is NO LOSER

    Love theone of Asia and Aaron -
    Even tho I had seen the picture the story of Asia's look into his face was precious.
    It is so easy to get busy and miss the important things in life.
    That was a touch of the important !
    Love you

Phlumpyschlumpy.

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...
