Today I
..................
It didn't work because the kid-lets had to go out once an hour, since they aren't used to me staying in that late. Saturday's have become odd days for me of late. Sunday - Friday I'm going none stop, always preparing for something else the next day, and then there are Saturdays. I look forward to the downtime of Saturdays, to being able to sleep in, to having no agenda. But once I get there I'm like a fish without water, bouncing around with nothing to do.
I woke in enough time to catch the beginning of the game.....
UT played SC this weekend, so I spent most of the next three hours straightening up my house and listening to the game. It was so.close I actually thought we might win, but SC came out the victors. *sigh* I would have been ironic if we could have beat SC after they beat the Gators and Alabama.
During the middle of the game I was attacked.....
By another bird. ANOTHER BIRD! This makes the THIRD bird to have gotten in my house in the last couple of weeks. How in the world are these birds getting into our single wide
I decide to...
Call into to the weekly Guide Dog Foundation conference call, for its Graduates, Puppy Raisers, etc....I've "known" these people through the GDF-TALK list for over four years now, and having nothing else todo, decided to call in. Two hours later, my phone died and I was forced to get off, perhaps I'll call again next week. Great Conversations. I think its funny that I, Erin-hater-of-talking-on-the-phone, spent two hours on the phone with people I've never even met.
I also attempted to make...
Applebees Spinach and Artichoke Dip.
It was a disaster.
It was nasty.
It is in the garbage.
However I have a new recipe to try from the Pioneer Woman (Soul Sweet Taters) They look soooooo yummy.
I tried not to think about all the decision I have to make.....
Have you ever attempt to do something and yet the more you try the more obstacles come up in your way? I'm starting to feel that way about my photography classes. Its not that I'm getting bad grades, but both semesters I've been taking it there has always been something hanging over my head, the threat of my classes being dropped, due to not being able to pay/FA dragging its feet to get my case taken care of.
So I've been toying around with the idea of switching back to my original major of Web Design. I guess I get intimidated with this degree because its so.much.more of an effort for me. Creativity is not one of my strong points, and it can be tough to produce things that my teachers are "cool" with, that and I really really really don't want to drop photography. But one does wonder...is God trying to tell me something here?
I had a blast at Disney on Ice...
Last night my roommate, her sister (also my neighbor) and I took, their nieces to see Disney on Ice Princesses Wishes. Amazing show. Granted I love anything Disney anyway but it was fun. We of course, had the "cheap seats" so we were all the way at the top of the arena, but it was still an ok position. It would have been a very relaxing evening if not for the lady who was trying to find her seats, and loudly looking for an usher, and telling people "well your just going to have to move" not to mention her kid was screaming the whole time. They finally got everyone rearranged and settled.
At intermission I decided to take the little girls to the bathroom. BIG MISTAKE. The line went up the steps going down the steps for the restrooms. I wonder what people thought of a black girl with two little white children. Not your typical scenario! LOL! We realized we were getting the bathroom, so we rushed back to our seats, in time for the lights to go down and second act to begin. A few lucky kids got to ride around the ice on a boat and watch the next scene from.the.ice. I was SO Jealous! Seriously how cool was that?
Anyway it ended far too soon, and defiantly a must see.
Now that I have stayed up....
Way past my projected bedtime, I bid you adieu.
