Choke me in the shallow water before I get too deep.Friday, November 6, 2009Thursday, November 5, 20098:33AMMigraine lingers. I'm sure it's stress. My inspection is tomorrow and I'm scrambling to purge, purge, purge. Cherice put most of my papers into three boxes and I managed to go through the smallest of the three last night. I still don't have a vacuum and I'm wishing I had more time to shop around. Wednesday, November 4, 200912:15AMI've gotten another migraine. I woke up with it on Monday morning and it continues to linger. I need to keep better track of these. Current mood: Tuesday, November 3, 20097:15AMI had a hard time sleeping last night. I'm working on my second day of the same headache and C was coughing off and on all night. His temp this morning was 101.4 (not 107.4 - definitely a typo!), so at least we're heading in the right direction. (4 kisses | show me love) Monday, November 2, 20097:30PMI have a thermometer now. C has a temp of 102.6. (I am not running a temp, thank goodness.) He stayed in bed and slept all day and just got up for the first time saying, "Mom, I don't know if I wet the bed or if all that is sweat, I'm so hot." So I'm doing laundry tonight. I'm so freakin' tired. I hope I can stay awake for Heroes. 2:42PMI got a sympathy card for the first time in my life. It makes me feel weird. Current mood: Saturday, October 31, 20099:18AM - fan-fucking-tasticElton John & Billy Joel POSTPONED (3 kisses | show me love) Sunday, October 18, 2009Wednesday, September 23, 200910:52PMI spent the latter part of my evening sitting in my living room piled with stacks and stacks of books, an early inheritance. My parents spent the weekend filling my garage with over forty boxes and bags of books along with other mysterious sundries. My stepfather is leaving on Friday, moving to New Hampshire and I wonder if I will ever see him again. I wonder if it will be easier to lose him if he is gone already. (3 kisses | show me love) Thursday, August 20, 200910:01AMThis weekend, I'm having a Very Merry UnBirthday Party. I've wanted to do something big for my 40th, and it's finally happening. I'm still trying to piece together decorations - I've picked up some lawn flamingos - and doing some food planning. I have a list in my head, but every day, I seem to accomplish so little, I may be scrambling at the last minute. Thursday, August 6, 20091:38AMI guess I haven't posted in a while. It's not that nothing's going on, just nothing I feel like sharing. I'm in a place I usually don't go until the weather gets darker, and I'm not sure why. (2 kisses | show me love) Monday, July 20, 20091:28PM - FamilyOkay...there's a lot to write about family from my visit, but I'm just going to talk about my unusual visit with my former stepmother.

I wish that I had bought my camera before I arrived; I could have taken at least six or eight pictures of this oddity. (2 kisses | show me love) Thursday, July 16, 20096:03PMI left Montana today and decided to drive straight through rather than stay a night in Spokane. So I'm home. (2 kisses | show me love) Tuesday, July 14, 200910:59PMI'm on the last leg of my road trip. It's been interesting on so many levels. Right now, I'm just south of Missoula in Florence, Montana staying with my friend Kiki and her two kids. I think I will always finish up my road trips at her place to guarantee that things end on a good note. Wednesday, July 8, 20097:04PM - ListThere's so much from my trip I want to write about, but I really don't have time. Here's a list to remind me: (4 kisses | show me love) Tuesday, June 30, 200912:02AMI got word today - FINALLY - that our waiver was accepted. C can attend school in Shoreline instead of the Seattle School District. We don't have to move! We don't have to fill out a pile of paperwork! We don't have to settle for Kamiak! This is a HUGE weight lifted! I have been stressing about this since his school went on the chopping block. (3 kisses | show me love) Thursday, June 25, 20093:26AMIn blinding contrast to the last few months, the last two days have been spectacular. I should have been coming out of my seasonal funk around February, but with the break-up followed by screwing up my knee, then a uncomfortable return to an unwelcoming classroom, the misery just seemed endless. Sometimes, the onset of summer brings a new sort of depression - I have no routine, so I just stay in bed. Wednesday, June 17, 2009Sunday, June 7, 200911:58PMTwo more weeks. Tomorrow I bid on my job for next year. I'm waffling between two spots. There's one in preschool with a teacher I've never met and there's a self-contained classroom for K-1st grade, also a teacher I've never met. Or at least, I assume so, since the position isn't filled yet. I thought Miss Meany might take it, but apparently she is going to another school. The K-1st is a shorter shift, so less money, but a shorter day is remarkably inviting right now. I wish I had more time to think about it, or at least meet the teachers.
