I WANT: to take a vacation somewhere nice with the kids.
I WISH: to live happily.
I HATE: feelings of inadequacy
I MISS: friends
I FEAR: something happening to a loved one.
I HEAR: the typing of keys.
I WONDER: what I am going to fix for dinner tonight.
I REGRET: not keeping in touch with people.
I AM NOT: good at keeping the house clean.
I DANCE: when the mood strikes me.
I SING: all the time.
I CRY: when I am really mad.
I AM NOT ALWAYS: good with words.
I MAKE WITH MY HANDS: shadow puppets

Yard Work (3 of the 9 acres worth)

Gather fallen branches
Trim trees and hedges
Pull weeds around trees and in flower beds – if time clean up around berry patch
Clean up carports and porches (front and back)
Drop ant poisoning over all of front and back yards (2+ acres)
Plant Azaleas (because they don’t mind the shade and every other plant planted in flower beds in front of house have met their demise)
Have bonfire with most of the branches and weeds, have small campfire with some of the branches and make smores. (Note: Have hose ready!)

Result of efforts:

This list is just for me, since I am the only one who knows this site exists and am the only one who looks at it.

Things I am going to write about -
1. Old pictures I have been finding and some of the stories behind them.
2. A story about the monkey girl (how appropriate is it she was born in the year of monkey?) Walking at 9 months, climbing on anything and everything at 10 months, having to change her crib to a toddler bed way before we should have because she kept trying to climb out of her crib, why all of the dining room chairs are in the living room instead of at the table.
3. Live Nude Girls!!! (Zoey and Allison)
4. Reliving Nathan and Zoey’s babyhood through Allison and trying to treasure every moment.
5. House remodeling

more ideas to come, I just didn’t want to forget about these. I am absent minded that way.
