A Sunday Summary

Thought I'd take a few minutes and summarize the past week or so.

1. Friday Alex decided that he wanted a new mommy. Long story short, he did something he wasn't supposed to do, I called him on it and he got mad at me. This led to Alex calling Mike at work and telling him he wanted a new mommy. Later that same afternoon, he was again in trouble so I sent him upstairs to calm down. He got very quiet, very quickly. About 10 minutes later he came downstairs all happy and excited. He had been coloring and he drew a picture of me. It's very cute and I guess he couldn't be too mad if he was drawing me.

2. Happy Birthday to Me! Thanks for all the birthday wishes. It was a rather uneventful day, but nice not to have any plans or commitments. We had lunch with Steph & Michael (thanks for the spice of the month, totally awesome gift!!) and then spent the rest of the day doing nothing. Alex was in a right rotten mood most of the day, but that's OK too. No cake, but I did make some "birthday cookies". Kind of wishing I had made a cake...

3. Projects! I FINALLY finished the curtains for my friend. It took me a ridiculously long time, but they turned out beautifully and she is thrilled. Now it's onto the next project, reusable sandwich/snack bags. Just something silly I thought about playing with.

4. After who knows how many months (6, 8, 12???) I finally got my hair cut. It's still long and doesn't look any different, but hey, it's something that I've been trying to get to for months now.

5. We're going to a movie tonight, just Mike and I. He bought tickets earlier today, crazy how expensive they have gotten - $19 for 2 tickets. Now I remember why we don't do this more often.

6. Looks like I'm back to cleaning my own house. Oh well, I should be doing it myself anyway. No excuses now.

7. I'm about to start my 27th or 28th novel of the year. I'd love to get 50 in by the end of the year, but I don't know if that will happen. I'm keeping track, maybe at the end of the year I'll list some of my favorites.

And, I guess that's about it. Thanks for visiting.
