topic? what topic?

The school year is officially finished! I now have 14 months to enjoy with my children before working again. With any luck after the next 14 months I'll be able to secure a full-time teaching job. Guess we'll see! I can't believe that at that time I'll have 3 kids aged 4, 2 and 1. Crazy how life changes! I sure wouldn't change it back, even after the events in the last blog post!

Happy to report however, that Tennyson woke up with a smile on his face today. He's broken free of the inoculation-induced dementia.

Good grief am I bored. It's ridiculous. I've tried phoning people who I generally talk to, but that's not working out tonight. You know how it is when everyone except you has plans, stuff to do, husbands to cuddle. Sigh. You can probably tell that I really have nothing to blog about. So what have I done this evening?
  • vacuumed
  • organized the internet bookmarks
  • checked facebook
  • hit "refresh" on facebook numerous times. nothing new happening
  • tried phoning people
  • rued the day that heartburn started
  • brushed my teeth early
Honestly, there is nothing interesting going on here. I was going to sort and purge the computer room, but that hasn't happened. I tried to watch TV but there is NOTHING on except Family Guy, and I'm honestly embarrassed for myself when I watch that show. It's so nasty.

Almost 10 o'clock, so I guess I'll go to bed! Woohoo!

Is the computer room going to be the baby's room?

No, the computer room is just really messy and needs a going through. Jordan and Tennyson will share a room and the baby will get Jordan's old room. Imagine how well this will work!

I keep tricking myself thinking "cool, now there's 4 comments!" and click on it, then I realize that it was me who added the last one. I'm sure I'll see the 5th later tonight and fall for it again.

I'm working on it! It sucks because my camera is dead and "someone" stole the battery charger and new batteries out of the wall and I can't find it . . . wait . . . Steven just found it down the vent. It's been days since I've taken a picture! This rocks.

I often think - wow, 14 comments! Only to look and realize 12 of them are mine. sigh.

dinnertime/breakfast time woes

Suppertime is such a performance sometimes. Why is it so hard to get kids to eat their supper? Last winter I started cooking all these fun meals out of these healthy living cookbooks. There was pasta, cheese, cooked spinach (I love spinach in foods), stir fries, fun burgers, etc. The kids would see a hint of green and spend the next twenty minutes moaning and choking it down. That's the older two. The younger two wouldn't even pretend to try. Eventually I kind of gave up and went back to the regular five dinners that I remake over and over and over and just made sure to serve them with salads and veggies. Jordan eats. Tennyson whines about not liking noodles, potatoes or vegetables but usually we can bully him into eating his dinner. Who doesn't like any side that goes with beef or chicken? Seriously? Not liking pasta? Or potatoes? Or rice unless it's floating in sweet and sour sauce? Good grief. I'm so glad that their pickiness is so individual to each child. Tha

today's to-do's

Things to do: dust. As if. It's been on my list for weeks, I mean, days. prepare income tax stuff. Too bad it's all scattered within different piles of papers throughout the house, garage, back lane, trunk of the neighbor's car. sort piles of paper (see previous). cook carrots and sweet potatoes. Puree into a delicious paste to be fed to the baby and sneaked into my family's dinner. make dinner (or "supper", if I don't want to sound all hoity toity ). Add "orange puree" and "white bean puree" to the pizza sauce. Wait to see if husband notices. daydream of the day when Steven's scurvy clears up. pick up the big kids from school (it lets out in 8 minutes. I should probably go now). okay, going . . . . . . okay, back. You'd be pleased to know that although school let out only 8 minutes after I posted that last bullet, I first went down and switched my wash into the dryer and started another load in the washer. I remember, once upo

two things: one to do with running, the other with my fastly-deteriorating fashion sense

I've started running again. I'm not sure if I ever "officially" stopped, but I only ran twice in August, totalling about nine miles, so I kind of felt like when I restarted in September that I was, well, restarting. This is probably not even blog-worthy. It would probably be better served disappearing into the chasm that is facebook, but I need blog topics, so here it is. I once had a friend (coughcoughangelacough) who said that she didn't run outside because she was afraid that just maybe, she ran "funny," and people would see her. Being an awesome friend, I insisted that surely she didn't. I lied. I have never even seen her run. I have just recently decided that she does run funny. Wanna know why? (as if spell check didn't underline 'wanna') Everyone runs funny. Quite seriously, everyone . I prefer to run outside, because the treadmill sucks my will to live, and a mile or two in I turn into a sighing, eye-rolling teenager, o
