a belated winner announcement...

Sorry it took me a couple of days to get this written.

The winner of 'getting to know you Wednesday' this week is M & F Mom.
(Sorry I don't know your real name!)

Comment here for me and let me know what kind of cards you want. I'll make them 'specially for you and pop them in the post next week. Oh - and I'll need your email so I can get your addy.

Congrats!

And thanks to everyone for playing. It was good to hear that so many of you really don't feel the need for a do-over. And those of you who did want one, it was neat to hear that you spoke without regret - and instead you recognized that all your choices led up to who you are today...

My do-over? It would be more travel. Much like Corey - who wished she had travelled more in her 20's. I was just afraid, I think, when I was young. And so I didn't dream very big.

But I don't regret anything. It just would have been a lot easier to see the world then than it is now!

Happy weekend, friends.

    Cathy -I have two friends on my facebook in there mid 20's who travel the world together...I see all there pic's and think of me and you - it would have been so fun (it is tanessa mcgladdery and lindsey madsen) - they just got back from uganda, they are both nurses and they have awesome pic's of their journey to paris...still believing for our 40th year travel. I have a friend who is turning 40 that year who is interested in meeting up to journey there with us - she loves the idea of pilgrimage for 40 year celebrations. We should probably begin to plan and figure the damage, eh? Chat soon.

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...
