SNOW
I culdn't believe it today when we saw that the snow was coming down. Miss Jess and I were on the playground, and we were somewhat horrified, but the kids were really geeked up about it, so i'm happy for their sake. They eneded up cahnting and yelling about the snow, and grace's comment was that it was christmas now. Nice wishful thinking there grace. I am excited about the holiday season starting and decorating and baking and all of that, especially since it'll be here in my own place. The christams coffee cake- mmmmmmm. A tradition in my family dating back over 50 years. At about 7 coffee cakes per daughter per year that makes 700 coffee cakes! wow- and now its my turn to begin making them (not that i haven't helped before, but its different when it is at your own place. Lisa, I'm sorry that you had to suffer through Hanging Up. THats one of those movies that you think is going to e a comedy and then you realize- not so much. That was okay in About a Boy- one of my favorites- but that one was just depressing. Like 28 days! Ahhh! One that i saw recently that actually was good was Bend it like Beckham. Its a british movie about soccer players. I don't know that it is, but i usually really like british movies- maybe its because they're unconventional- like me. Maybe we'll have to watch it on the movie night at my place. Its one that I think I really want to buy, and though i dont have the money right now, i might give in and use the dreaded credit card, cause if youre going to buy it, the idea of paying to rent isn't really a good one. At least now i have excel on my computer so i can better plan my budget- thanks to my mom the accounting wiz. Thatll help with my personal budget as well as my soap selling budget, but i still have a lot to learn about using it. also, i have a job prospect in the sociology department conducting phone surveys for research, which would really help my money situation. itd be good because id be able to pick my own hours in the evenings and possibly saturday mornings. okay- zoning out here, must go to bed!


Movie Quote:
About A Boy Toni Colette to Hugh Grant "Am I a bad mother?" "No, you're just a barking lunatic."
