I wanted a little one-on-one time with Eleanor today. When Saralyn went down for a nap, I let Elly paint my face with the new supplies I got in. The theme today was BUNNY.
She painted me:
I painted her:
We both had a great time and learned we need finer brushes for things like whiskers and stuff. [...]

I need to clear up a misconception about myself. I’ve recently posted on Facebook – 25 interesting things about ME!

The bronchitis is better, but the pills are making me sick to my stomach. I was hopeful that the meds would make me sleepy, because that’s what was promised. However, they only make me groggy, and slightly nauseated.

I have long been a believer that February sucks. Just ask a groundhog, or a jilted lover or homeless person. February is the way past the joy of the holiday seasons, and is too early for the blessing of Spring. February takes forever.

On days where we are really missing each other, Tony and I ask each other if there is room in the other’s pocket to stay in. Sometimes when Tony is about to go to work, I pretend like I am going to dive into his hip pocket, and then he kind of holds it open. [...]

Lent is on the way, and I am going to be giving a few things up: Sweets, Meats and anything Deep Fried.
I like the discipline of Lent. I like the simplicity of my give up plan. But, I’m having some trouble defining my terms: What’s a meat and what’s a sweet?

As far as my kids know, today IS Valentine’s Day. Both girls had Valentine’s Parties at school today.
Check out what was in Eleanor’s bag of goodies: handful’s of candy, erasers, pencils, toy frogs, a little pinball game, a coupon for a free donut, a bracelet with her name on it, stickers, a luncheon cake, and [...]
