Would it be a terrible thing if I wore these on a regular basis?  Lately, my kids will not stop talking.  Ever.  Not for a minute, unless they are playing Wii.  It’s almost driven me to have a nervous breakdown, or at least develop a tic.  Sometimes I think they do it just because they know it aggravates me.  Other times, I know they are specifically seeking attention, but come ON.  One person only has so much to give!  I seem to be especially sensitive to the girls’ incessant chatter at the moment, which makes sense since they are in my class.  There IS such a thing as too much togetherness.  I cannot wait until Thanksgiving break so that they can talk to the grandparents and I can sneak off to enjoy some quiet.

So, G’s second grade class is constructing a diorama of the infamous destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.  I really want to ask Mrs. M  if they are going to take them out to the parking lot and set fire to them.  If so, I want to be there to watch.  And video it.

Poor thing has been neglected for what?  A couple of years?  Well, I’m thinking of dusting it off and taking it for a spin again.  I’m no Pioneer Woman, but I’ll see if I have anything of importance to share.  I AM a little nervous that I drank a few glasses of wine and then announced on Facebook that I “used to have a blog”.  What does that mean?  Should I keep it under wraps?  Do I really have time to filter my thoughts anymore?

Times have changed, quite a bit.  No wonder I’m mostly tired…I’m a single mom these days.  I am also teaching full time at the kids school and training for a half marathon.  I’m sure there are LOTS of questions churning about my new status, but I am not quite ready to go into details.  You are going to have to pack up the judgemental streak and save it for later.

I’m still in awe that I remembered this password.

Again, WordPress has gone and meddled with things.  I can’t take the changes!  I don’t know how to find my flipping blogroll now in order to add new blogs.  Sigh.  Why did I think I would be able to keep up with this ball and chain?

yes, you CAN use Febreeze on those jeans that never make it to the wash because they are the only pair that fit you and you wear them every day.  Really.  It works.

Don’t ask me  how I know this. 

I’m gonna stick one tiny toe in here and see how this blogging pond feels.  It’s been a tad too cold for my blood, so I’ve just been ignoring and waiting for something inspiring…

Not quite there yet, but hopefully I will be soon!

A Christmas gift from my parents

Me likey!

Hmmm, what’s this?

Donald Trump would be proud.
