I love all the mom talk.
{{{Anne}}} Much job~ma headed your way. You and my mom should swap tips. She's been searching since November. It's so frustrating and really takes a toll on self esteem and all those other great things.
I'm back at my mom and dad's. I went into town to the apartment for a few hours. I even took a nap in my own bed. It was heaven. I love the dogs, but when it's both of them on the bed, it's very difficult to sleep.
I've been working on three quilts this weekend. It looks like I shouldn't have tackled so much. Nothing is going to get "done." But, at least I've made some good progress. Now let's hope it's not too difficult to move them home to work on. There's just so much more ROOM out here, especially when I'm the only one here. It's been kind of nice, though. I haven't had this much concentrated craft time since I visited Anne last year. It's nice, and I needed the break. The evenings have been rough and lonely, but it's almost over.
I've worked out my work schedule so that each week I have a three-day weekend. I'm going to get Mondays off. I think this will be nice for the summer, and I hope that I enjoy the time and make it profitable...not just let it dwindle away.

Is anyone around? I'm having kind of a rough time.
ETA: I'm gonna go walk the dogs for a minute and see if that helps.
vw, I'm around. My email address works as my AIM username if you have chat.
For some reason, I can't get on AIM Express tonight. And I'm on my parents' computer, so I don't want to download anything.
I'm doing a little better, though. Not great, but I did walk the dogs and go get some ice cream. I know it's ridiculously early, but I think I'm going to take my night meds and let myself fall asleep watching tv.
VW, Try googling "Aim Express" to see if there might be other ways to get on. I know I come up with more than one link to their interface.
Hang in there, Anne!

Keep up the baby talk, hosers.
She turns 6 months tomorrow and she also eats toast.
I WAS THERE!!!!! She kept pulping it up because she couldn't get any paper and Laura approved ("my kids first food was pizza crust") and the whole thing RAWKED.
I'm mostly just posting to show off my new tag, from really the greatest baseball commentating I've ever heard (paraphrased a bit -- if I remember later, I'll rewind the DVR and check the exact wording):
Commentator 1: [Dominican player] is waving to his mother, because it's Mothers Day in the Dominican Republic today.
Commentator 2: Yes, and happy Mothers Day to all mothers in the Dominican Republic, or, I suppose, mothers from the Dominican Republic who are now here.
C1: Yes, when ballplayers from other countries travel here, they bring some of their own traditions and holidays.
C2: We do that too, when we're travelling. It's like, when we're in Germany, we still celebrate our Christmas.
Oh, Betsy. I'm so sorry. I hope somehow, the police can recover it, particularly the sentimental items.
