The Weekend in Bullets

  • Kids, one of which was sick.
  • Made pickles, yet to be tasted and judged.
  • Made lip gloss/chap stick (depending on if you are my son or my daughter…it’s actually the same recipe), turned out good this year.
  • Created Snowflake(and an occasional mutated car or Mohawk dude)Ornaments this year using toothpicks stuck into foam balls, spray painted white and then flocked and glittered, yet to be hung.
  • Shopping for gift exchange between siblings, unwrapped and unexchanged until New Years Day.
  • Purchased 6 real ‘for keeps’ and not-getting-rid-of Christmas Stockings, hung.
  • Demonstrated how to prepare a pomegranate without making a mess to my daughter, created mess on her favorite pajama pants.
  • Long, deep discussion with kids about propaganda in general life and specifically in the government and school, learned much about my son.
  • My son Devon’s poem is published in this quarters Arts and Poetsmagazine, I couldn’t be prouder.
  • Feeling more ‘home’ with Joe, my job, my house, my life than ever before, wonderful.
  • Finally feeling a tinge of Holiday Spirit, relief.
  • How I feel this morning in a nutshell:

    E: I hate when people make erroneous assumptions without first exploring the options.

    Me: Please don’t use big words this early in the morning before I’ve had coffee.
