Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

I bought the HD5 Lemon flavor at the supermarket tonight, and OMG IT IS GOOD!

We didn't lie!

Uh, except to Cash. Seriously, Cash, it's no big. Just regular old ice cream. Nothing special.

Especially between thin crispy ginger cookies. mmmmmm.

Mmmmmm.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I would love a nice big tub, but both my bathrooms are too narrow for a larger-than-standard tub. I am tall enough that I can't lie down in a standard tub. Frustrating.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I have a nice bathtub, but would LOVE a jacuzzi outside. Our yard is plenty big enough, but damn, they're expensive. It took us a couple of years to save up for our new TV, so I think if we have a jacuzzi, it'll be a long way in the future.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

If you keep an eye out on Craig's List, hot tubs show up free. Sometimes they're in working shape and sometimes not.

Now tagless for your comfort.

You can rest easy! I found a pint for sale in Indiana and it was AWESOME! I finally had it. It was more tart than I dreamed it would be but incredibly smooth and yummy.

Liv is 4 going on 40 and I'm not especially fond of this age. EVERYTHING is a debate. She's got mad arguing skills and I suck as a disciplinarian. I should send her to Aims for the summer.

Ha, Casper was totally a mini-lawyer at 3. She had an objection to everything, and was so articulate and verbal it just went on and on. It was hilarious when you weren't actually dealing with it.

We have not yet found ANYTHING that works with newly-rebellious 4 year old Dillo. He laughs, literally, at punishments. So far denying him ice cream is the only thing that has had an effect on behavior, and we can't deny him ice cream without first promising him ice cream you know? I am reminded of David's story of 4 year old E locked in his room pounding on the door yelling, "I want to be a good boy!" and I have no idea how to induce that feeling in my son.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck with that, flea.

Trudy, that is so pretty, but I know my laziness limits; I'd don't think something that big is in my cards. Something like this is about as big as I would want, and I really like the look of it. [link]

Again, let me reiterate how happy I am M. was six when Dan and I started dating.

Dan's mom and dad have a working hot tub they no longer use because of blood pressure, so I'm sure we could have it (It's 6 hours away, but that's what rental trailers are for.)

But this is definitely in the future -- way too many other things need taking care of before then. I would definitely replace the bathtub before I would work on the getting the hot tub.

OK, I really need to spring into action. We don't have our usual Monday 10am staff meeting, which lets me avoid doing actual work for most of the morning. But it is totally a day to stay home and be cozy! Too bad I'm already at the office.

OK. I still haven't really done any work, but I made a donation in honor of my cousin's wedding, so that's at least off my personal to-do list...
