I still have a headache from the awfulness of yesterday. My cousin/her husband took everyone out to dinner at nice restaurant. My fiancee (R.) finally got to meet my cousin and all seemed good. Everyone was having a good time, except my brother. He was in rare form - being rude, sarcastic , obnoxous. I mean, he can be snarky at times, but ( Read more... ) -

Just got back from dinner at a local Mom and Pop restaurant. This place only takes CASH. I never heard of such a thing. Anyway, the food was served quickly and it was delicious ( Read more... ) -

I had a meeting with A.'s teacher today. Thankfully, he's doing great and his teacher is starting to mainstream him into the 1st grade class. A. is doing an excellent job academically, but socially, ...not so hot. His social skills are getting better..I just have to be patient and grateful that he's making improvements. Between trying to change his ( Read more... ) -

Procrastination Station
I can't get myself moving today. Part of it is due to feeling depressed and also due to the rainy weather. Still have to finish out my yoga requirements, can't motivate myself to go. I love doing yoga, but not at the studio where I trained. I made a hasty choice & signed up for Yoga TT at this studio , which *appeared* to be what I was looking for ( Read more... ) -

I'm plugging away , participating in NanoWrimo. This is much harder than I thought it would be. I can bang out a non-fiction pretty quickly, but fiction...wow, you've got to be good. I just wonder if it's worth it or a waste if time. Yes, it's good practice to write, but to pump out 50,000 words that *make sense* in 30 days? As I'm going through ( Read more... ) -

Nearly done with yoga teacher training. I had to pay an extra $275 for 20 classes because i didn't finish the requirements in 3 months. (attend 25 classes in 12 weeks) Fuuuuuck. I can't wait to finsh my classes so i can move on.. It's frustrating because some of the teachers don't give correct advice - like - "Don't dry yourself off with a towel ( Read more... ) -

Can't wait to go ( Read more... ) -
This Old House
I knew when we moved into this house that things wouldn't be perfect, since it was built in 1903. BUT, last week, the toilet broke, overflowed, leaked to the downstairs apt and cause the ceiling to cave in on the 1st floor apt. Of course the 1st floor renter was pissed, but I reminded her that the house is over 100 years old. The 1st floor renter ( Read more... )
