Well We Made History!

Well either way it went we would have made history really. Either we got the first black president (which we did) or the first female vice-president! Me I want to know how many votes Mickey Mouse got!!! He sometimes comes in third, I was hoping for 1st this year. Now think about it, Walt Disney was a great man and Mickey is a product of him. And besides we have had plenty of RATS! in the White House before, what difference would Mickey make? But the decision has been made and now we must wait and see how this president will fare. We just have to pray that a higher power guides our new president in the decisions that he makes for us all. I hope everyone has a great weekend, Me I am hoping for a qiet weekend with no projects or commitments from the teenager. I seem to be Tara's taxi more and more lately.

Where does time go!!!!!

Okay here it is November and this year is almost over. I am sitting here asking myself...self what did you do with this year??? I was waiting for an answer but nobody said anything so I continued with my questioning. Did I do anything productive, like get my craft room reorganized........no. Did I make any benificial contributions to society......hmmmmmm, don't think so. Did I finish the craft projects I started at the begining of the year.....well no, but in my defense I did start and finish 2 scarfs the other day but the rest is still in the bag waiting to be finished. Did I loose any weight...........3 pounds but I may have put that back on over Halloween, like the cartoon says "the itty bitty packages do not make for an itty bitty butt!" So here I sit wondering what it exactly was that I did do. Okay let's take a look....on Monday I have TOPS (and if not for them I would be big as barn, oh I am, so let's say big as a space shuttle) Wednesday Tara has Mariachi practice, Thursday Orchestra rehearsal, Friday Harp class, so Tuesday was my only day to do nothing and now her harp teacher wants to see her twice a week. So Tuesday just went out the window! But Tara is so worth every hour I spend in that darn suburban taking her to class and rehearsal and carting harps back and forth That I really don't mind if my butt falls asleep so much. And remember I did get 2 scarfs done! So I am going to make a real effort to accomplish something before the year is out, it may not be earth shattering (no pun intended since we just had 2 earthquakes here in Texas of all places) and it may not be anything to shout from the roof tops. But I do want to leave my mark on 2008. So we shall see how things progress.
