Go Kathy Go!
Relishing those little things is a great focus to have.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
That is brilliant, sumi! WANT!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Kathy, that's fantastic progress! I'm so happy for you!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
That's fantastic, Kathy. Well on your way.
We had bacon, eggs and biscuits for breakfast, and then I cut everybody's hair.
Emmett got the Daniel Craig cut.
Matilda - I trimmed all her split ends and leftover baby wisps. A little shorter than I planned but it looks so much fuller and healthier now, and with her natural wave it sort of falls into a 40s style pageboy.
Just fixed JZ's bangs.
And they're all off. Emmett's being dropped back at his mom's where he's instructed to study for his math final tomorrow. But instead he will do yo-yo tricks and play video games.
JZ and Matilda are off to her dad's house to do some laundry, so I have the house to myself. Which is good because I have four writing things to finish this week, one of which is longer.

Congrats on the progress, Kathy!

Thanks for all the support, you guys! You have no idea how good it makes me feel. (I can't wait until my mom calls me here at work later this afternoon, which she said she'd do. I bet I make her cry with my news! [Um, that's in-a-good-way cry])
Lunch today is turkey breast with gravy, which came with a great compliment on how I'm looking by the cafeteria guy, who happens to be my neighbor at home--he lives on the first floor of my apartment building.
I picked up the menu for the rest of the week, and they've got really tasty-sounding protein for each day. Yay! Southwest chicken tomorrow, mahi mahi on Wed., Jambalaya on Thurs., and either meatloaf or curry chicken on Friday. I'm using the cafeteria for lunch just so I can get some variety in my meals, but I am cooking for myself for dinner, unless I have leftovers from lunch, which I will today. I was smart and brought a ziploc bag with me today, which I filled up with the remaining three slices of turkey and put it in the cup of ice I got with lunch.

Contemplating going to the pool.
I was going to go after work today, but with the weather being what it is, and sleet predicted for tonight, I'm going to head home instead. I'll get over there tomorrow, Wednesday, and Friday, so that'll be my three times this week. Thursday night, I'm heading down to Skokie for a surgery support group meeting, and this weekend I've got my first meetings for my Library Management class this semester, so unless I get into the pool at 6:00 am (which ain't gonna happen!), swimming is out this weekend.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Yay, Kathy! That's wonderful progress!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Kathy, you are totally inspiring me to be more diligent about getting enough protein. Seriously. I feel better when I eat more protein, but I don't always get it, because sometimes it's just easier to make pasta for dinner.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
Yay, Kathy!
From a NY Times article about an online game Jared Loughner was briefly involved with:
It is not uncommon for people who are part of any online community to form bonds and casual relationships with the people they interact with on the Web.
In other news: It is not uncommon for basketball players to be tall. Also, fire is hot. Ice is cold.
