Not a single picture....

I don't have a single thing to share today except I am tired. I know, that is weird. On October 1, 2009 I went back to work part-time. I have managed to wheel and deal and do a whole lot of nothing until today. My boss is in town. I mean, is there any bigger inspiration to get out of your sweat pants and into big girl clothes and shoes (and boy are my feet unhappy)? We emailed, called and worried about the kids. Not sure why I worried about the kids as they were at Grandma and Opa's but still, this is an unusual day.

Kid #1 was in crazy, mean mood on way home, and even more so once we got home. She even called me a poop. Needless to say, dinner and bed was done by 6:15 and for some reason I am still working. Taking a quick blog break and then folding clothes and crashing. Monday night tv never looked so good!

What we ate today....

We had the best Sunday. It was full of food and love and family. Life doesn't get any better than good food, time with family and then home for a nap!

The high point was kimchee with my dad and my kids. Happy doesn't cover it!

(Check out Lilly's face. She is quite irritated because we interrupted her mrs. pacman game on her Opa's phone.)

Friends and Family....

There are times that I look back on my life and I remember those who were important to me. Now, I look at my life and I think about those who love my children. These people continue to be the most important, because my children are the most important. This being said, there are those from my past, and my family's past, that are just friends. They have been around a lifetime, but they don't know us anymore, and we don't know them. However, they are our friends. They are our past and our present. We don't owe them a thing, and they don't owe us. But they are our friends. They have just always been here. And we love them.

Thanksgiving....

What a time we had.

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday! We had a great day. I cooked for a year, and it took about three minutes for everyone to eat.

Today, our dear friend arrived to spend six days with our family. He is also my new boss. We will be working and figuring out how I am supposed to work amongst the craziness that is my life. In the meantime, he is wooing my kid and playing like a jungle gym.

I am thankful for my family, my friends and my life. Every day, not just yesterday!

And then they played....

Thank you Amazon...

Look what arrived today. There are no words to describe how proud I am of my dad, and of my family. This is our history; who we are and why we are. What a wonderful and inspiring story!

So tired...

I am so tired. But I have so much to do. But I don't want to do anything. NOTHING! That's it for today.

Except... I have 126 pictures on my iphone. Every single one of them is a picture Lilly took while hanging out in the car or buying time while I figure out how to get out of the house. Here are a few.

Playing for Change....

PBS has been showing episodes of Playing for Change, Peace through Music all weekend, and I have been entranced. It is amazing to see how music, spirituality of all kinds and human perseverance overcomes all. We should feel privileged to just be here.

Experience this!

What a wonderful Christmas/Hannukah/Kwannza gift this would make. You would also be giving back.**

**I am in no way affiliated with this, just think it is quite amazing!
