• wet, soggy, windy

  We're having a lovely storm today.  Wind, rain, just nasty.  Its okay.  I have nowhere to go today, and nothing pressing that needs to be done.  So let it rain and storm, and blow I'm safe in my house.

  My kids are contentedly scrapbooking.  I let them use my cut-out stamp thingys.  Kaylin has been very creative this morning.  Samuel is enjoying his video game, and Jamari his baton.  jamari loves that baton.  LOL

  I got a very nice long letter yesterday from a fellow writer.  It helped me cement a decision I'd made over a week ago.  I have stopped one story, and possibly two.  I really hope not the second one, but I'm giving the option to people.  So far the vote is 3 for 1 against.  Its all good.  My writing has taken the back-burner for so long, I needed to give everybody the choice.   I have a great vision for this story, but the time, alas the time is always fleeting.  And life has been a pretty big bwitch lately.

  Jamari is very huggy today.  Do you remember when he didn't want to touch me?  He's not that kid anymore.  He just comes up and leans on me.  Its so amazing the difference time could make.  Actually we've made another huge break through with him all because of baton.  He does so well at it and has the coaches approval.  Its always good to have somebody else excited for you besides family.  It has made him a happier child at home as a result.  Happier is always better.  LOL

  Rob's scrubs still haven't come darn it.  I ordered them with so much extra time, I'm a bit exasperated about it, but there's nothing I can do but grouse.

  I was up late last night getting my pictures chosen for my shutterfly calendar, so that's my project for today to upload them, and get it made.   This is my typical grandparent pressie.  And they all look forward to it.  Of course this year I will have to order a extra one as two grandparents aren't living in the same house any more.  Its the litttle things that poke you in the gut you know?
