We all know that I have long hair.  We also know I love long hair.  Some of us know that I stress the idea of cutting my hair.  Some of us know that I often “get really sad” after cutting my hair.  However winter is coming.  I hate winter.  I wish I liked autumn.  But [...]

This is a piece of a bigger picture. I welcome one and all to guess at what it is. In one week I’ll give the answer, and post a new one. Good luck and may the guessing begin.

Of water on my shirt.  I was curious to see what it would look like in photographs*.  Now I know.

*I did not drop water on my shirt just to see what it looked like.  In fact, I missed my mouth and noticed that it was not absorbing into my shirt, so I thought I’d take [...]

So, I have a few gems from today’s trip.  Then I have a few gems from the spring, when I was in a bad blogging funk and just had the quotes on slips of paper.  I have had them hiding on my desk waiting for me to get in the blogging mood again, and I [...]

To spend on any random thing I don’t NEED, but WANT, it would be this:

We do not subscribe to cable or dish.  We do our TV watching at other people’s houses or online.  One of the shows that we have come to love is The Big Bang Theory.  However, I (we) am upset with CBS at the moment.  All last season (and we waited patiently through the writers’ strike) [...]

Yesterday was “Talk Like a Pirate Day” and I missed out until 9:30 pm.  This makes me sad-ish.  I still had 2 hours to play. 
I bought pants onWednesday.  They fit nicely.  I decided I needed a second pair, as pants rarely fit me nicely.  I went back yesterday to get a pair.  The label [...]

I wasn’t working per se, but I did go in to the preschool.  I donated 5 fish, 2 Yellows and 3 Hammers, very pregnant Hammers.  So now I have about 42 fish in the tank still.  I went over to take the fish, and to take more “class photos.”  The kids are cute, but very [...]

Today I was at the preschool again.  The funniest thing I heard…backtracking, I was on the infant side, and I was also taking pictures for class pictures.  So the best thing I heard a kid say was Girl J (3 years) “I do not have a camera like that at my house.”  I told her [...]

Oh what a relief it is!  I feel good right now.  I have been released as Primary Secretary.
I made an executive decision.  Rick is the only one that has guessed on last week’s quiz, so I am going to leave it again for this week to see if we can get more guesses.  My [...]

I took the spider in to the preschool this morning.  I looked through Karen’s book about them and the closest we could figure was a Barn Spider.  So, I looked on line for a picture to match better and sure enough the underside is better for identifying.  She is a Barn Spider.  Her full name [...]

Yesterday morning as I was taking the trash to the “curb” I noticed it was very foggy out.  I looked up and this is what I saw:
  I love this.  So I took a minute and grabbed the camera for a few shots.
This morning Jacob and I had to take my car in for an [...]

Yesterday and today I found myself working at the preschool.  Lots of fun.  Here are some of the conversations:
I was asking some of the kids yesterday about how the weekend went for them.  A number of them talked about the ballon rally (an annual event in our town-pictures at the end as seen from the [...]

A few weeks ago my friends Jessie and Aiden went to the park and had a picknick.  Aiden insisted that Jessie play tag with her instead of talking with me.  I held the blanket down and took pictures.
