So sorry to hear about your loss, Moon

lollirot: thank you so much for the input! How long have you been going to school for it? I am going to have to try online classes because the nearest schools that offer the program are ones I'd have to move closer to.

I'm so sorry for your loss Moon

Yup my eldest goes to High School in September. She's growing up fast, she's away this week canoeing and abseiling. The thought of my baby jumping off a mountain does not make me feel good but I've got to let her spread her wings some day.

Thanks everyone. It pleases me that he finally gets to be with my grandmother again.
But my mom is taking it pretty hard. She feels guilty that she couldn't be there to say goodbye.
And her stupid sister doesn't help.

Mrs. D I'm sure she will make you proud.


Today feels odd. I'm waiting for my moms friend to get here or my mom to get here to let her in. I'm thinking about downloading some mp3 files. I know my car can read those files but I've never tried it out. I'm wondering how many cds it will take to have my entire music collection saved as an mp3 file.

Sitting in front of my compy feeling blah. I overslept this morning and now I feel like crap.

In Rochester NY waiting for my friend to get outta work so we can meet up and then head out to her cottage on lake Ontario

Sitting with the bf. He's watching supercross videos on YouTube and I'm reading. I really want to finish this book so I can start another one. I have too many books on my shelf that I still have to read.

I'm watching tv and trying to reformat all of my music. The three CD's I just burned mp3's on I'm about to go see if it works in my car. Matt woke up really late today. I ended up calling him to wake him up and he still had to go pick his friend up and eat while only having 45 min to get to work. He likes to leave to pick up his friend an hour before he has to go in. I don't know if I'm going to be hanging out with anyone tonight but hopefully I can get my music stuff taken care of. I have literally been working on it for 6 hours.

I just got back in from having dinner with my mom and the Mr. We took her out for her birthday, which was this past Monday. Happy birthday, mom!

I'm trying to calm down but it isn't work. I don't think I will be able to sleep at all tonight. I'm probably going to be up until matt gets here. That means I'm going to be up for another 7 hours unless for some reason they let him out early because his friend was going to take the rest of his shift. But since he got there so late I don't think they are going to let him and they are probably going to make him work longer then normal.

Watching this 19 part doccumentary on You Tube.

Trying to figure out if I'm going to buy the dvd or not.


For The Curious
Part 1

Unpacking, catching up on laundry, getting over jet lag. Had a great time in California. We spent one day in San Francisco, then a few days driving down the coast (B&B in Half Moon Bay, and stops in Pacifica and Capitola, and a few other little towns, and lots of sightseeing and photo-taking along Route 1). Friday was our friends' wedding -- the ceremony was among the redwoods at a Buddhist retreat (where we spotted a couple deer on the grounds earlier that morning), and the reception was outside with plenty of dancing and frisbee-throwing. All-vegetarian dinner, and a cake with an all-vegan layer.

Had a really good time, but we're glad to be back with a couple spare days. Hope everyone here is having a good weekend.

Red: I'm so glad you had a good time. I know there is a lot of stuff on here for you to process and I'm sure your very tired. But when you do get a chance to do all of that I'm excited to hear details about your trip.

Matt and I are about to go to my moms friends 4th of july party. We also have to go to the gas station for gas and smokes as well as the post office before hand.... but it will work out.
