it is tuesday, right?

heh.

anyhow.

i'm so behind in posting
and even moreso in reading...
i have totally had no time to catch up
on anyone's blogs
and am hoping that there may be
some time today to do that
but before i start
here's where i've been...

my boy, my sweetness, my monkey
turned seven on sunday
so we had a party for him and that
encompassed a great deal of my time...

this was his "cake"...
with 15 kids and half a dozen or more adults
it was fairly chaotic
but thankfully, it was sunny and nice
and the trampoline got loads of use.

my sister in law dropped off these books
for me and i can't wait to start them,
but first i have to finish this one
that i am sort of ambiguous about...
but who knows, it may get better.

my sister in law and i have the exact same
taste in books...it is really almost uncanny
and she told me that she was deeply disappointed
with the lovely bones so now i am a little
worried about that one...i'm going to try to
go into it with an open mind but...
maybe i will just tell myself that she is testing
to see if we really do like the same books,
and maybe she did like this one, but she
is pretending that she didn't, so i should
give it a fair try, just to make her imaginary test
possible....

heh.
i'm such a loser.

other than that, work has really had me going lots
leaving not much time for anything else
on top of the usual things...homework, baths, lunches,
suppers, groceries, laundry...blech.
