I am sitting with my daughters who are both happy and playing together which is a miracle in and of itself. I have a few minutes and I want to blog, but I find that I have a lot of little things to say today, but not one specific goal. I like to blog about something specific, to take a stand, or make a statement. Today, however, I will not meet that goal. I am happy just to have a blog done.
Let me start off by saying, I am really glad Phebe is home today, but I did not see a reason for a snow day at all. The roads are fine, and the bus could have easily gotten through the subdivision. I do not understand at all what happened with all the snow. This was the actual snomageddon. Last time just prepared us for this. Back to Phebe, I am really enjoying having her home. She has been an incredible big sister the past few days, and has been playing with Samantha, and even helping to watch Parker when he is over. I love to hear her laugh, and have her around the house. I really miss her during the school year.
Having the kids get along so well frees up a lot of time for me to get stuff done. I want to edit my novel, and start to cultivate ideas for the next one I want to write. I want to blog, and read interesting blogs, and read a book. When it comes down to it though, I am doing the laundry, and re-cleaning the floor that I just cleaned because someone else dragged mud in, cooking meals, and cleaning stuff up.
I have given myself a goal to edit 1 Chapter this week, and finish reading 1 book. The editing that I have to do this week is all content based. Then I have to go back and edit overused words, and whatnot. I am reading 3 books right now. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Dante's Inferno, and Mrs. Dalloway. I think that my goal this week is to finish Dante's Inferno, I am close to the end of this one, and then I can cross it off of my list. :)
Speaking of lists.... I am off to make one!

Snow
I don't particularly have anything going on right now. Things always seem quiet in January and February even when I am busy. Something about the snow and the cold that just makes everything seem slightly different. Last week, I had an extremely bad virus which rendered me completely useless. Basically, I spent several days not able to move, and then the rest of the week I was miserable, but still going about my days.
I am currently just finishing up with my day. The kids are in bed, the snow is rapidly falling outside and I am just about to watch The Biggest Loser with Bill all cuddled up on the couch. I just thought that it would be the perfect opportunity to update the world on my New year's resolution list that I posted a month ago. I have not forgotten about my lofty goals, and I have actually started on all of them already.
Here is the list again and you will find my updates in blue.
1. Learn how to rewire an outlet and a light switch. I read about this online and learned what to do. I am sure that I will actually KNOW what to do once I can do it myself. Hands on always helps you retain the information better, but at least I researched it.
2. Learn to speak Italian, and Gaelic. I know 4 words in Italian and 3 in Gaelic. This doesn't count.
3. Keep yoga in my workout regime at least once a week. So far so good!
4. Finish Nanowrimo again.
5. Finish editing my first two novels.
6. Have a baby.
7. Paint my kitchen, hallway, and bathrooms.
8. Finish the downstairs bathroom.
9. Sell some of the stuff in my house that I really don't need, or donate it to someone who does need it.
10. Read the entire bible through again. Thus far, I am caught up in my One Year Bible!
11. Live my life with intention every moment of every day. This is a good one, I am glad it is on here. :) I must have been thinking that day.
12. Write 10 poems that are infinitely better than the ones I wrote in high school.
13. Pray everyday for at least 20 minutes. Done.
14. Enjoy the small moments with my kids while they are still kids.
15. Eat healthy, and workout. It is my me time and I deserve it.
16. Read at least 12 books off of my lofty, and snobby book list known as the SRP list. I have read 4 books since the last week of January, but only 1.5 of those have been of my SRP list so far.
17. Streamline my life. This is done, but I have to make sure it is still streamlined as the year goes on.
18. Try a few new recipes each month to add to my list of favorites. This month I tried this new Italian chicken crock pot recipe that was both delicious and very healthy. I loved it.
19. Learn how to use my sewing machine. FINALLY.
20. Take a road trip somewhere.
EDIT:
21. Finish at least 1 scrapbook.
22. Give up diet coke. Done, I have not had caffeine or diet coke in 2 weeks, I don't want it, I am not craving it. I am OVER it!
23. Find the perfect desk organizer.

Sun butter, peanut butter and the like
There is a new hurdle for parents to cross when it comes to packing lunches. Most schools nowadays are putting the nix on peanuts, peanut butter or tree nuts of any kind. Some schools are even going as far as saying that you cannot pack your child something that was created in a factory that has processed peanuts. I have a bit of a sarcastic comment when I state, what if I make it in a kitchen that also processes peanut butter sandwiches?
I have no problem with this for the most part. Does it make it more difficult to come up with things to pack for my kids in their lunches? Yes. Does my daughter constantly lament that fact that she does not get to have peanut butter? Yes. But I understand that there are a few kids out there that are SO allergic to peanuts that they cannot have it even in the air. I respect that. I don't put peanuts, peanut butter, tree nuts or the like in the lunches that I pack. I don't want anyone getting sick, and I think it is healthy for my daughter to learn to put her own wants aside to protect the health of some of her friends.
The problem lies in the fact that there is no way for the schools to really regulate this, not sending peanuts in is left up to the honor system for the most part. They asked us not to do it, and we are supposed to listen. I do. I listen. I have bought a new kind of granola bar, and I make bagels and cream cheese, or turkey sandwiches instead of your typical PBandJ. The new rules have even forced Phebe, my daughter, and I to be creative. We bought a thermos and she packs soup, mac and cheese, leftovers, and even oatmeal. There are parents that don't follow these directions. My favorite example is of one family that has one daugther who cannot have peanuts, and their other daughter who brings a bag of peanuts in her lunch every day. Way to advocate your own cause, right?
No comes the beef. Excuse me, but I do NOT appreciate getting a note home saying that you, the lunch mom, assume that the granola bar I packed has nuts in it. It does not. I am not stupid. (You might be a few crayons short of a box since it said right on the granola bar DOES NOT CONTAIN NUTS.) I am following your no peanut laws and I do not appreciate you sending her lunch back with a little note telling me that my daughter was not allowed to finish her lunch, and to stop sending peanuts in. If they had just put away the granola bar it would have been one thing, but she was not allowed to finish her apple, or her granolar bar which means she only made it through a yogurt. I should send a note attached to my daughter. "Dear Lunch Mom, I would appreciate it if you sent me home with a happy, and fed child just as I sent her to you. Yesterday's version was cranky, starving, and hard to get along with. Thanks. The nonpeanut packing mom"
Phebe and I have discovered now, SunButter. It is basically just like peanut butter, goes great on sandwiches, tastes good with jelly or honey, and is delicious on an apple. The best part, it is sunflower seeds and is even processed in a plant that does not process nuts or tree nuts. Oh Happy day! Let's just hope that nosy Lunch Mom keeps her nose out of my kids lunch.

How to know when you read too many books
Tania and I settled on the books we were going to start off with for SRP (the snobby list of books I want to read) we picked 12 books, her list is not the exact same as mine, as she assigned me a few books that she wants me to read, and I assigned her a few books that I want her to read.
I went on to amazon to order the first few books, and to order the book that we are reading for book club this month. Much to my dismay, the book that was chosen is new and only available in hardcover. I am against this for so many reasons. First, I can buy only the one book for $18, and I like to find a deal. I get this happy, warm and excited feeling when I find a good book that is cheap, on sale, and I can get free super saver shipping on. (At this point, I agree with your thoughts I am insane. It is true.)
Anyways, that part of the story is not that important, I made my amazon order sans the hardcover book and vowed to talk about it the next day (today) with Tania and make sure that we were actually going to read that book. I am glad today that I didn't order the book because we decided not to read it after all.
Instead, Tania and I researched a few books online and, as instructed by Pilar, picked another nondescript, and fun to read girlie type book. I was actually excited about it. After setting up the long list of daunting books that I am going to read this year, the idea of reading some easy chick-lit sounded great. On top of that, we picked a new author who I haven't read before, and I am always excited about adding another author to my list.
I left work right on time, with enough time to make it to the storeI drove to Target, where I had some shopping to do, and they were supposed to have the book, but they didn't. I glance at the clock, 1:18, I can make it to borders to get the book and still make it home on time to get my workout in right at 2:00 as planned. Samantha and I hop into the car and drive to Borders to discover that it closes in 24 hours, and they have about 15 books left. 1:40. Ok, I really can make it to Barnes and Noble, and then home. I don't have any other time to get the book, and I have to workout.
Samantha and I run into Barnes and Noble, and I find the last copy of the book that they have, and I snatch it up excited that I will make it home for my workout. We pay and drive home. I am elated.
The rest of my afternoon was actually completely amazing. I got home, got an entire hour long workout in. Fed my family, and then spent a blissful hour and a half reading (I had a book to finish before starting the new one). As if this blissful hour and half was not enough my family was still off playing and entertaining themselves.
I took a bath. That is right a hot, bubble bath. That is the most frivolous thing I have ever heard of, and I loved every second of it. I am now settled on the couch, kids in bed relaxed laughing at myself.
I am laughing because it turns out the book that I drove all over town to get..... I have read it before. It was years ago, and on vacation. I didn't quite remember the story, but about 30 pages in it all came flooding back. I have read it. I know what happens, who ends up where and what they are doing. Guess I didn't really need to drive to all those stores now did I?

The New Year peeks its head in...
I love the whole Christmas season. Everything is busy, and happy and family comes in to see you, and people are surrounded by love and happiness. We had an amazing and very blessed Christmas, it was amazing to have the whole family home, and just all be together. It was great to have Phebe home for a few weeks, and spend tons of time with her and Samantha. I just loved it. But that is not really what this post is about.
This post is about New Year's and the resolutions that we all make. I find that most people feel very excited about the new year, and they make these lofty goals that they will meet for the new year, and of course, after two weeks most people don't meet these goals. I have decided I am going to make a list of all the things that are basic to somewhat lofty even stuff that I will not ever accomplish this year, but I want to do them, and I am adding them to the list anyways. This is my resolution. I am not going to meet most of them, but I am going to try. And I think it is important to have goals. These are also in no particular order, just added randomly, and I only included 20, but I can always add if I think of something else.
1. Learn how to rewire an outlet and a light switch.
2. Learn to speak Italian, and Gaelic.
3. Keep yoga in my workout regime at least once a week.
4. Finish Nanowrimo again.
5. Finish editing my first two novels.
6. Have a baby.
7. Paint my kitchen, hallway, and bathrooms.
8. Finish the downstairs bathroom.
9. Sell some of the stuff in my house that I really don't need, or donate it to someone who does need it.
10. Read the entire bible through again.
11. Live my life with intention every moment of every day.
12. Write 10 poems that are infinitely better than the ones I wrote in high school.
13. Pray everyday for at least 20 minutes.
14. Enjoy the small moments with my kids while they are still kids.
15. Eat healthy, and workout. It is my me time and I deserve it.
16. Read at least 12 books off of my lofty, and snobby book list known as the SRP list.
17. Streamline my life.
18. Try a few new recipes each month to add to my list of favorites.
19. Learn how to use my sewing machine. FINALLY.
20. Take a road trip somewhere.
EDIT:
21. Finish at least 1 scrapbook.
22. Give up diet coke.
23. Find the perfect desk organizer.

I fail my own challenge
This blog is actually, about 2 weeks old now, but for some reason it never posted, and I felt like it would be nice for it to have made it to the actual blog. Following blog notwithstanding I am fine. It was just a bad day, and bad days happen. :)
So, I am about to embark on one of the best kinds of blogs. The kind that you write during a complete mental breakdown where you know you are going to write stuff that doesn't make any sense, and that people will get that small window into your mind, you know the place, the deep dark place where all the jumbled up messes sit that you have not had a chance to deal with yet.
I am a dweller as well. One small thing can start the mental breakdown, and then I tend to cry about every little thing that has been bothering me. Really, the whole crying thing started because I was overwhelmed in the moment, and I asked Bill to help me and he was grumpy about it. We bought some packages of this plastic stuff that you shrink wrap over your windows to help hold the heat in, and stuff. Well, it says that it is easy to do, but it is not as easy as it looks. The good news is the house IS warmer, and we got the windows done. The bad news is that it took hours, and duct tape. Lots of duct tape. I could feel myself teetering on the edge of sanity, and knew it was coming. He did get up and come downstairs to help me, but one thing went wrong, he got so grumpy, and my mental breakdown began.
I am very sure this breakdown was somewhat entertaining for other people. I am on the last two windows, and I have duct tape and plastic stuck to my foot and to my hand, and I cannot get it off, and I cannot rip the peace of duct tape, and tears are streaming down my face. That is about when I gave up and ask for Bill's help. He is grumpy, and I begrudgingly keep going and try to hang the plastic on the windows trying to see through the tears and trying not to let it go so long that I cannot do it anymore because the thought if having to hang up more plastic tomorrow is a thought that I cannot bear.
I allowed myself to enter that deep, dark place of emotions that I haven't had a chance to deal with. And thus ensues the 2 hours of crying and poor Bill was just there watching with a loss of what to do. I got to cry about all the things that I needed to cry about, and I let it all out, and once it was all said and done things felt better.

The Santa Debate
I have been seeing Santa lately. I don't mean that I have been seeing the "real" Santa, or the Santa at the mall, but old men that actually look like Santa. This Tuesday I was driving in to work, and Samantha announced that she just waved to Santa. I was not at all surprised because Samantha waves at people and dogs and trees out the window when I drive. Once she even waved at a car because it was pink, and "that is her favorite." When I glanced over to see what she had waved at this time, there was a little old man driving the car next to me who could have been Santa. Full on long white beard, and long hair. He even had on a red hat. I smiled at him as we pulled off and laughed at Samantha.
Wednesday, I was putting gas in the car, and there he was again, my street Santa. It was not the same old man, but another who really could have been Santa, he was a little rounder than the first. He seemed jolly walking across the gas station as our eyes met, and I once again smiled at the Santa Clause that walked cross my path.
Finally, yesterday I went to pick up salad for my best friend and I at dinner, and there sitting in the restaurant was Santa, with Mrs. Clause. Again, it was another old man who was the text book example of Santa. All of the kids in the restaurant were pointing, and asking their parents if he was really Santa, and he was laughing at all the kids who were pointing obviously thinking it was funny.
It brought up a very silly, and yet obvious question. Are there more Santa like men out there at Christmas time? Or is it that I am only noticing right now because it is December, and my own sentiments are skewing the situation? And so it begins.....the Santa debate.
