My son and his friend.

My Day

We took my daughter out for breakfast and then shopping today. She has a bunch of gift cards from Christmas that are burning a hole in her pocket!
I ended up spending money that I hadn't planned on spending. It was fun. I bought some pretty wine glasses, a jacket, workout clothes, undies, slippers, candles and a book. I'm having a glass of wine in one of my new wine glasses and a piece of chocolate as I sit here typing.......and I'm burning one of my new candles........my feet are warm cause I'm wearing my new slippers! Life doesn't get much better than this!

I paid my sons 2nd semester college tuition today. YAY! It's always a relief to get it paid. Have I mentioned lately how proud I am of him?

I go back to work tomorrow. Bummer. I can kinda understand the woman who recently faked being abducted as a way to get out of going to work that day.

It's been a year since my neighbor killed his wife, daughter, daughters boyfriend, 2 family dogs and the family cat. He received 3 life sentences without a chance for parole. I wonder if he feels guilt. I wonder if he misses them? I wonder if" BUBBA's" had his way with him yet?

Just Do It

I switched to the new blogger. I'm not sure if I've screwed things up or not. TESTING!

Things Parents Say

When I was a little girl my dad used to tell me "you're the best girl in the United States of America AND Mexico!"........... he cracks me up.

James Dean and his Flame

I love my mom and dad. Dad calls her Flame, and Mom calls him James Dean.......they've been together since high school. Dad spent much of his early childhood in an orphanage, and mom was born to a 15 year old child......they didn't have much in their favor & yet they managed to make a pretty remarkable life for themselves. A seemingly happy, and fullfilling life.
I'm proud of them, and feel very greatful.

Sucking Toe

My daughter says it's in style to have longish toenails. Gross. I'll keep mine short!

My friend Chuck has the prettiest feet, which is saying a lot cause i don't usually think of feet as being pretty. He says he enjoys when his lover sucks his toes and such.......so one time while at the party cove in Cumberland we started talking sex and feet. I couldn't relate. I was sitting with my feet hanging over the boat. D's husband grabbed my foot and started licking my foot and sucking on my toes. So OK....it did feel good. Sex, feet.....it's all good.

My daughter was crowned queen of the SnowBall Dance (winter formal).......she was hoping not to win, almost turned down her nomination because she was afraid of having to slow dance with whoever would be crowned king( she's never slow danced with a guy ), and she was worried some of the other girls would be mad at her if she actually won. She managed to dance with the guy who was crowned king even though he was like 5 inches shorter than her........and yes, a couple of the other girls on the court booed her when her name was announced......I guess BEING the queen and NOT being the queen has it's ups and downs. Most of us have experienced being NOT THE QUEEN........I'm glad she got to experience the other side of it....even if it wasn't so perfect!

Finished putting up my Christmas Tree this evening. It looks beautiful. We-Ping hasn't tried to climb it yet. So far she's content just sitting under it.

I love Christmas.

Stuff

I injured my knee today clogging. Clogging is kinda like tap dance except the shoe has a double tap, and you move your feet to the down beat,keeping pace with the tap on your heel...........it's NOT square dancing........it's not Irish line dance....but close........I started clogging cause I wanted to do something with my daughter that i thought we'd both enjoy. She quit after several months. That was several years ago. I've continued cause i love it and it's good exercise. But mostly cause I love it (i'm not to fond of exercise).

I'm wondering if during my exit interview I should mention that the HR person is sleeping with several of the male employees, in her office, and outside of work? It's tempting, but I guess I shouldn't be that way.

My son registered for his second semester of college and emailed me the bill. Have I mentioned lately how proud I am of him?

I'm happy. I feel good. My dads scan results show that the cancer hasn't spread beyond the prostate. I've been having trouble breathing ever since he was diagnosed. I think it's just anxiety. I feel better since getting the scan results.

We-Ping is 100% back to normal since having been spayed. She gets her stiches out Saturday.

a shared moment

Was in my car today sitting at a red light, looked at the car next to me, met eyes with the man in that car................usually i'd look away........this time I kept looking, and so did he......our eyes were locked....and I didn't feel uncomfortable, and I knew that if i knew this man, I'd like him. The light turned green.....we smiled at each other and then went about our separate lives.
