- That my kids have the next week, yes week, off for President's Day. I'm not quite sure about the logic that brought us a week's worth of vacation for a holiday that lasts 24 hours, but who am I to question? I'm just enjoying not having to get the kids to school every morning by 7:45 am.
- Being able to sleep in until 7:15 am this morning. An extra hour in the morning does wonders for my spirits.
- My daughter, on her own, came to me and announced that she was going to do a "spring cleaning" in her room yesterday. Finally she rid herself of the final vestiges of being a child. Bye, bye beanie babies! Her room looked terrific by the end of the day. I'm still in shock to be honest, but a happy shock.
- That I have a husband who is willing to crawl underneath the house to fix a problem with the venting system to our dryer (we almost burned our house down on Sunday).
- That we discovered the burning lint caught in the venting system before it caught the house on fire.
Several things that I'm very unhappy about:
- Arlen Spector, Olympia Snowe, and Susan Collins - these bozos are making the passing of the stimulus legislation possible. I emailed each of them this morning to share with them the extent of my unhappiness.
- "The messy one" who I share an office with is letting his true colors shine through by starting more and more piles of his junk.
- "The messy one" is always in the office now. When I arrive he is there, while I'm working he is there, and when I leave he is there. He only teaches two classes. What is so important that makes all this office time necessary? I fantasize about telling him to "get the heck out." But I would never allow myself such a nasty outburst, so I'll just fume and smile.
- I'm tired of eating protein. I've lost 10 1/2 pounds (which I'm happy about), but I'm sick to death of what's on the menu. I'm close to making a change. Hopefully that change won't undo my progress.
That's about all I can muster today.
