Oh yeah! Here are a couple of other things I wanted to post about that didn't make it into my previous post ( Read more... )

I feel bad about all the things I never post here. I feel bad for you because you're missing out. ;) Heh, not really. I feel bad because I want to get that stuff out. In large part I think of this journal as my memory book for later, and I hate that lately I lack the time/energy/whatever to write the stuff down, and future-me won't have much to go ( Read more... )

Lately I have been experiencing a very novel and unfamiliar sensation, which is summarized in the subject line of this post. Yes, after 6 1/2 years of breast-feeding, I'm finally having to get used to not being hungry again ( Read more... )

Happy New Year! I'm not going to do an actual "2009 in review" post, because those are boring (sorry, but they are). Let's just say that it was quite an eventful year for me, in good and bad ways.

Funny how times change, isn't it? ;) I suppose it's just barely possible that metafrantic was adorable when he was three ( Read more... )

Oops, sorry I didn't update sooner on Isaac's injured arm. It was an eventful few days ( Read more... )

I just balanced my checkbook and discovered that Isaac's afterschool program apparently did not cash a check that I wrote to them back in May. This is weird and I'm not sure what to do with it. Also I'm not sure why I'm just noticing this now, since I have balanced my checkbook several times since May! I guess I'll try to give them a call ( Read more... )
