About the Other Night
We had a wonderful party the other night. So many good friends were there and I met some new good friends as well.
We had a group painting that I’m going to finish up with Joe and then hang. Many people contributed and it looks great.
Some people left really nice thoughts in a book for Joe and I. Margot and Charles took some photos for us that will be up soon. Thanx, guys.
I feel fortunate to know so many wonderful people.
I feel a bit wonky today. A little under the weather. I hope it passes quickly.
I get to see my kids this weekend, my parents as well and possibly my sister and her husband. Joe and I are going to see Maroon5 on Thursday night. They have a great sound that I can’t stop listening to.
XOXOXO
What's goin'on
The doctors have decided that Rhoda’s growth is benign. But they want to remove it tomorrow anyway.
The Writer’s Monthly Anti-Social is this weekend. I’m point man for the first time. I also signed on to be an assistant editor.
Got a raise at work last week. Awes.
I’m really REALLY glad I got out of the loan business. I love what I do.
Almost done sprucing up the house.
Things are good.
I love my life.
Everything is a blessing.
We have a floor!
Who knew? I suspected it was there all along…..and it’s actually the same size as the house, reaches from wall to wall and you can see all of it in the living room, the bedroom, the front hall and the drawing room. Purty dern amazing.
This place is starting to really feel like ours. I’m so glad. I’ve missed home.
I’ll see my kids in a week and 3.5 days, but who’s counting?
My sister, Rhoda, has a growth along her neck. I’m very worried. Crying in public places is not really my thing but that doesn’t seem to matter. I cry more now than I’ve ever cried in my life. I cry over the milk commercial. I hope that at some point I’ll be able to control it better but never crying is a worse option than crying in Target. So, I’ll keep up venting the duct lines in my eyes.
Started seeing a homeopathic doctor. She is Awesome with a capitol ‘A.’ And has a very strong constitution: she rubs my feet.
quick recap for the kids:
i miss you i miss you i miss you i miss you
i love you i love you i love you i love you
the house looks better. can’t wait for you to come over and see the improvements.
pray for aunt rhoda
no, i didnt forget we promised to get a pet when we moved in. soon.
the feet lady? she really DID touch my feet on purpose.
XOXOXOXO

stuff
I had the kids last weekend. It was fan-tab-you-lous!!
Things at work have been hectic. 12 hour work days.
Sometimes I’m so tired I could spit.
Sometimes I do.
New house is still full of boxes
I want to paint but feel guilty painting when there are more boxes to go through.
Instead of painting I watch tv and feel guilty or go to sleep early.
My sister recently dropped from a size 18 to an 8. I hear she looks fabulous. Good on her.
My parents are back home and off of the mission they were on in Salt Lake City, Utah.
It’s nice to think of them back in the house I grew up in.
My son, my little guy, has decided to get baptized.
The money I earn seems to be in direct proportion to how much people want from me.
My money situation never seems to get much better.
Somehow, someway, I manage to feel happy and fulfilled the majority of the time.
God loves me.
Everything is a blessing.
quick recap for the kids:
so good to see you, so good to see you, so good to see you, working a lot, sometimes some drool flies out of my mouth,(just kidding…it’s just an expression), still not unpacked from the move all the way, haven’t played with my paints yet, aunt rhoda looks great, grandma and grandpa are home again, congrats to you anthony, we won’t be going on any spending sprees anytime soon. so much love, XOXOXO
