hip deep in pie

That pie sounds amazing David.

They make me happy to look at.

I know! The house always looks so desolate for the first few days after the tree is down. I think I am going to have to light some candles tonight.

I jsut bought a swack of silver ornaments for 75% off that I am going to use to make an ornament wreath. Unfortunately, the wreath forms seem to be sold out right now.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

My old roommate showed up fortuitously, and is writing me a check. So I had no choice about that particular task, but it all worked out.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I am for serious when I say that my life went way off the rails once people stopped giving me gold stars for doing stuff I was supposed to do already.

Oh, man. This is TOTALLY me. I'm almost 40 and still haven't gotten over the loss of gold stars for doing my chores.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Oh, man. This is TOTALLY me. I'm almost 40 and still haven't gotten over the loss of gold stars for doing my chores.

The gold star economy goes in entirely the wrong direction. My income is now higher than when I was a kid, why has the supply of gold stars so woefully failed to keep pace? Hell, if it behaved the same way, by now I should have an entire bookcase of trophies engraved with "CLEANED ALL THE THINGS".

...Ok, a shelf at least.

YAY homework!

Also, I have finished grading all my long papers. Now I just have portfolios left and entering grades...

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Now I'm wondering if it would help if I made up a chore chart and gave myself gold stars.

Ginger, I've done similar and yes, it helped. I should do that again.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Firewood: It is Hauled!

Whoo! And not a moment too soon. It's nippy out there! But I don't need to stoke the fire now because I am all steamy. The phoebes who were roosting in the woodshed sat on the fencepost and scolded me for lowering the level of their perch. Sorry phoebes! Isn't it enough that we don't use our speakers all spring because you nest on them?

I am mailing them to you because I can't stand the thought of tossing them.

Yay! Thank you! Our plan for next year is to have a live tree we can plant in the yard.
