Welcome 2008!  I hope this a good and successful year for me and my own.

Last night Jeremy and I went to

 So I TRIED to sleep in today.  I even stayed up late (12 IS late ok!) and took a sleeping pill so I could sleep longer.  It didn't work.  I still got up at 8:30.  It's a little bit of an improvement over 6:30/7, but it's not enough to keep me going until well after midnight.  I will have to nap ( Read more... )

Today is the last day of school for 2 weeks!!! Yippie skippie!!!! Jeremy made tentative plans with Myra to have Team Onstad come to our house tonight for some fun relaxing time together. It will be fun if it happens but we're all tired and busy so *shrug* who knows. I'd love them to come, but I don't know if they'll be up to it. And that's ( Read more... )

I don't even remember the last time I posted so I don't know where to begin.  Monday was Jeremy's 27th birthday.  Everytime he has a birthday I start feeling older.  I know my age, but his seems more important somehow.  Anyway... needless to say I am NOT where I had planned on being by the time I was 25, let alone Jeremy being 27 and we're not in ( Read more... )

 Well, good morning!  I hate that it's Monday, which means I have to end my 5 day holiday, but as long as I'm going back to work I'm glad it's a Monday which means I only work until 1 not 5.  =)  And today we begin the Christmas curriculum.  I only have the kids 12 times before Christmas.  Crazy!

Thanksgiving was such a subdued affair I feel like it ( Read more... )

Yeah  ok, the fasting thing...  uh... good intentions... BAD idea.  My body had a total collapse last night around 6.  Huge headache, nausea, body shakes, restlessness, oooh it was bad.  So I broke down and ate some pretzels.  It took me probably 20 minutes to eat a small bag.  I felt a llittle bit better, but still very weak and shaky.  So Jeremy ( Read more... )

 This weekend:

I am fasting this weekend.  While it is intended to be a spiritual gesture it is not a Religious one.  I'm not being told by anyone to do it, it's not "that time of year" or anything.  I'm doing it for a fistfull of reasons.  I have become entirely too dependant on Caffine for brain function (I blame you AOKP) and it needs to stop.  I ( Read more... )

 So I woke up this morning and went to my computer for my usual 30 minutes of computing before getting ready for work and my monitor decided to die today.  RIP HP Monitor.  It was a good monitor.  It lasted 7 years, 2 colleges, and many many moves.  So we went to Best Buy and bought a 19" flat widescreen.  It's purdy.  I likes it ( Read more... )

Yes, apparently I can.  In spades.  Now I know everything is going to be highly exaggerated and over-dramatized in this post because it is nearly midnight and I haven't been sleeping well for a few days, but that's precisely the point.  I can't sleep, so I'm always tired and can't get anything truely accomplished that needs to get done.

I am having ( Read more... )

 Ok, I guess it's been too long to ignore.  I need an update.

Work has been steady recently.  Same old grind.  Until yesterday.  Yesterday was the "fall festival."  We can't celebrate Halloween in name because as a Christian institution the parents might not agree with the approach to representation of afterlife and blah blah blah...  I understand ( Read more... )
