What a day! I think OR is finally getting to sleep at 9:30. And of course BR is at work so I had to get everyone to bed while attempting to keep them from waking each other up.
Before this evening I was having a great day, though! I made it to [...]

We had a pretty good day today, for us. First there was the obnoxious comment by the manager of a local breakfast place we go to a lot who actually told me she should remember my name because I’m the woman “with all the kids who’s always pregnant”. Suffice it to say they [...]

Sorry no pictures today, BR is busy playing CivIII on the other computer again. Speaking of video games, can you believe he refuses to buy me the new The Warriors video game? As you may know, it is one of my favorite movies and I just have to have the video game. BR [...]

I didn’t get much knitting done today, but I have done the heel of my Twist Barbie sock:
And for when you don’t want to think (much) about what you’re knitting, I did some work on my 7 x 7 is experiment. It hasn’t failed so far.

Quick post since I had a “Moms’ Night Out” and was out “late” (past 10, for you sleepers out there!) We tried this new (to the area) restaurant, B.J.’s. It was okay, the dessert was amazing, and we got free appetizers because we were a party of 10, had an hour wait, and [...]

Just under the wire! At the last minute for signing up for Socktoberfest, I started my first sock in over a year! I have almost a skein of Wool Ease and I hope it’s enough to make two socks because I’d hate to have to buy one more just to finish up. [...]

Well that was excruciating. I should find out in a week or so if I got the job or not, but I was really short on the presentation and otherwise am not too excited about the job anyway.
I found yet another meme going around that I’m enjoying so far. It’s to [...]

I’m done!!! Of course I did take a few breaks, including to watch “Grey’s Anatomy” (not as good of an episode as recent weeks) and restart my “7 x 7 is” in a larger needle, but I have a presentation! It may suck, but it’s done! I basically wrote a little paper on how [...]

What another day. I was okay until we got home and now I’m just too fried to do anything. However, I do have less than 24 hours before my presentation and I have very little idea what I’m going to say for 20 minutes, and not much more what I’m going to wear. [...]
