I think I broke more dishes during the year I had a tile counter top than in the all the other years combined.

This is my argument against tile floors.

I walked over to the mall to buy milk and a coffee wearing my inside pants. It felt so wrong.

I think I broke more dishes during the year I had a tile counter top than in the all the other years combined.

When I had tile counter tops they were very pretty, but kind of a pain otherwise. They were very uneven and the ridges were not fun to clean. The tile counters in the bathroom were easier to deal with, and also pretty.

So many great birthday pictures, Kat! And I can't believe Grace's coming-home date is zooming up so fast.

You know what's good? Fried egg in bread-with-a-hole.

Barney Google Eyes!

My mom used to (and Hec still does) fry up the little hole, a perfect little burst of crispy buttery yum.

Safe travels and a good trip to msbelle and mac.

Child picspam, dated yesterday: Matilda and Papou's cat. She's wearing her A's shirt ("What does the shirt mean, honey?" "It means BASEBALL YAY."), but started off the day wearing all three of her baseball shirts (A's, Portland Pilots, Durham Bulls) layered on top of each other. Not a traditional Palm Sunday dress-up outfit, but at this point if she opts not to fight but expresses actual enthusiasm for any outfit at all I'll just roll with it.

I semi did that, too! Except I was using a little pan that was really only big enough for the main piece of bread.

Cute Matilda. Patient Kitty. (My cats all hide when children are around.)

I went out to eat in my inside pants on Saturday night. It felt perfectly right.

Matilda and Kitty are so cute. How patient is he!

Such a smart and fashionable child.

It is the Monday after Spring Break for CJ. I had to wake him up 3 times this morning and I drove him to school cause he was "afraid he would fall asleep on his bike". He went to bed at a reasonable time last night, but who knows when he actually went to sleep.

While CJ was struggling with the morning, I was up, dressed, chopped veggies for a slow cooked pot roast, got the roast going, made tea and toast, and remembered all the things I needed to bring to work with me. Now that I'm here, I'm ready for a nap. Ah well.

I know that was my problem last night! Now all I want to do is get back in bed, finish my book, and maybe nap. Instead, "work."
