Weight Watchers

Today is my first day of Weight Watchers. Well, my first day for the second and last time.
One day I will have before and after photos to post here. I am eagerly anticipating that day.

Lights Out San Francisco

Today is the day of Lights Out San Francisco. Have you heard of it?
Since I don’t live in San Francisco and I’ve already got CFL bulbs throughout my home, I’m doing something a little different.
The kids and I are going to play board games by candle light with all non-essential electrical things turned off. [...]

less red eye, part 3

I woke this morning with a much less red eye. YIPPEE!
Here’s a photo I took about 5 minutes ago. In my kitchen. With the overhead light shining in my eyes. Obviously, it’s not a great photo, but you get the idea. Less red, a little puffy, and still quite green. [...]

red eye, part 2

When I woke up this morning, my eye was still red. I called one of the doctors I work for and went in to his office at 11am. After staining my eye and peering at it with a black light, he said there’s no scratch on it. He then said it must [...]

Me: Aah… Fire Balls! (candy)
This goes to show that it’s hard to talk with a mouth full of candy!

(I cannot find a photo of a box of [...]

a hair-raising conversation

Co-worker: Did you do something different to your hair?
Me: No. I just didn’t fix it. I was in a hurry.
(I let it dry today with no gel, mouse, or any styling product at all. It’s curly.. with little ringlets around my face. Usually I blow dry it out straight or [...]

100-acre personality quiz

I saw this over at Organizing Junkie’s blog and thought I’d give it a go.
Apparently, I’m slow… but overall not too bad since I like Pooh!
Take the 100 Acre Personality Quiz!

anti-stage mom

If a stage mom is as Wikipedia describes a stage mom, then I am the opposite of that. The Anti-Stage Mom.
DD (age 11) is taking an introductory acting class at one of the universities nearby. Each Tuesday afternoon, I leave work early, pick up DD, drive over to the university and [...]
