I have made a few decisions.

1. I am claiming the laundry room as my own. I do the laundry, I care for the pets, and anytime some one else does laundry, a catastophe befalls my machine and I am the one who has to work around it or fix it. The cleaning supplies are there, so natually, no one else goes near the room. Once I finish making it my own, I will take pictures and share my studio space with everyone.

2. Mornings are stupid and pointless. If we are ever able to buy a house, it had better be far enough away from any neighbors so I can be up at 1am and play the piano, or turn my garage into a campground, or a toy room, or clean it out, and no one will be bothered. Also, kindergarten and groccery shopping and everything else should be open 24 hours. That way, we night owls can BE night owls. I am not meant to get up before 11am. Just as much as I am not meant to go to bed before 2 am. I feel best, and get most done during the night. I'm certain there are others like me, but because schools all start gosh aweful early etc, we are forced to conform to everyone else's schedules. Dude, I am NOT a round peg, stop trying to cut me down to fit your hole.

3. I hate couches. I always have. I think I always will. Like money, couches are the root of all evil.

4. Hot glue is still my favorite.

5. My next door neighbors have 2 small girls, one is probably getting close to 3 and the youngest is about a year. They have a dog and a cat. They started thier family a bit late, so have a good 10 years on me. Their house is always spotless. They are freaks of nature.

We are creative people. Creativity does not brew in cleanliness.


6. I tire of numbers, let's use something more fun.

Enchiladas- The best things in life require balance and getting dirty.

Nibbled- I love words.

Aquamarine- That is the end of my list for now. I love lists.


In other news- The dead walk the earth!!
There is some drama heading my way. Like a hurricane, I see it coming, I am bracing myself, but will inevitably be knocked around and a bit battered before things calm down.

Susan is potty training! YAY! She decided she had enough diapers. I would put one on her, she would wet it, pull it off, put it in the trash and go play. When she had to "make an uh-oh" she'd bring me a diaper. Therefore, I brought out the potty chair and she is using it. If you come to my house, please bring your own toilet paper, Miss S has decided that she's going to flush every square down our toilets one way or another. Also, a cusion to sit on, might be good, because, as Miss M before her, she has soaked my couch. The cushions are downstairs awaiting the washing machine.

We filed our taxes today. YAY! We were lucky enough to get a young woman with an amazing sense of humor. She changed my occupation from "Homemaker" to "Queen of Poop" and back again when my husband decided it wasn't as funny as I thought it was.

Today's random picutre is-

Margaret with 2 binkies!
