Sixteen years ago I went on my first date with the man who is now my husband. May everyone start as wonderful a life tonight as I did then!

17:53:06: The Story of The Christmas Cats...
Several months ago we had some dear friends visit and bring their dog and her new puppies. The kids absolutely fell in love with the animals (surprised?) and were crushed when they had to leave. Princess cried bitterly. Seriously, I now know what bitter crying is. It was sad. Hubby looked at me and put his arm around Princess and said, “I think it’s time that we start talking about...

I don’t care how old I get - I will never get used to the feeling of having my leg go to sleep. It STILL freaks me out!
Another holiday movie event: Diary of a Wimpy Kid. The red-headed kid is priceless!!!
Just watched “How To Train Your Dragon”. What a great movie! Considering asking Santa for a pet dragon this year.
House is shaping up for the gingerbread party. It smells SOOOO good in here!
All gingerbread houses are baked and ready for assembly. And the house smells amazing!
Yeah. I’m still here.
Exhausted and sore from sneezing all day. Thank you, cedar. Pfffftttttttt!

Yay! The first major allergy attack of the season!
Ways that Buddy makes my life easier: He refuses to wear matching socks. So no searching for a mate in the mornings!

The ribbon for my vintage typewriter arrived! I’m giddy!
One of my favorite things is the feeling of really good graphite on white paper. It inspires me to doodle and to journal.
There are some actors who, no matter how much success they have, will always be associated with on character in your mind. Who are yours?
Errands, errands, errands, teaching, errands, baking, fa la la la la! (You know I’m loving it!)

Sentimental Goo http://j.mp/hDHjl6
Generally, I’m not a sentimental person. Yes, I can get all dewy eyed over some specific things (the original Cabin 77, an old typewriter, Trooni’s pink collar), but I’m not the kind that cries at AT&T commercials. In fact, if a commercial/song/movie sets out to make me cry, I will become so mad that I will dry up in defiance. IF any liquid squeezes from my ducts, it will be...
Anyone who has NOT added “Raising Hope” to your TV watching line-up, do so now. Right now. And I’ll help you by adding a link to Hulu’s episode archive. Martha Plimpton is brilliant, but I think the real gold is Garret Dillahunt. I promise you won’t be sorry.
Every morning I drive Buddy to school. Princess’ classes start about 45 minutes after Buddy’s so she usually stays home while I shuttle the boy. It’s a great mommy/son time. Sometimes we talk, sometimes we don’t, sometimes we play “I Spy”, sometimes he tells me jokes. It’s a very sweet time. When we pull up to his school’s drop-off point, I’m...
Morning Warmth http://j.mp/i6HVL9
Finally saw this week’s episode of Glee. Still not up to last season, but I’m in awe of Chris Colfer. That boy has got it!
Had a wonderful lunch date with one of my main men - Buddy. AND he kissed me good-bye in front of his friends! Bonus!!!!
Princess is singing, “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas something something something something toys in every store … ” <3
