My Super Power = Productivity

  My accomplishments today: 1. Got up, ate breakfast and drove hubby to the BART station. 2. Primed the ceiling of my studio…twice…both the first and second coat. In between coats, I got the second coat up on the walls. Finished all that just in time to… 3. Shower, get dressed, and take the kitties to [...]

We have paint!

  Well, primer anyway.  K took today off (a use it or lose it vacation day), so I was planning to spend the day with him at a park for a picnic, but he fell back to sleep after breakfast.  So, not one to waste time, I put on my grubbies and got all four walls [...]

First Day of Freedom

  Spent part of my day unhitching myself from one wagon and hitching onto another…in other words, I signed my contract with SLUSD and submitted my resignation to WCCUSD.  Went rather smoothly.  I didn’t get the letter I wanted stating that I’m no longer going to receive benefits, which I need in order to get added [...]

Drama Queen

  Okay, so I didn’t die from using a PC laptop.  No, I didn’t expect to, and honestly, I’m the kind of person who can adapt pretty well to any kind of technology–I’m young enough for that to still be a possibility–so I really should quit all my moaning and groaning about losing my Mac.  After [...]

On a Quest.

  You know things have gotten bad when buying gas has been elevated to the status of a quest for the holy grail. For the past few days I’ve been taking mental notes on the gas prices at various locations. Now that I’m down to my last tenth of a tank, I’ve got to find a [...]

Found!

  I think I mentioned a while ago that I had lost the book I was reading.  I had looked all over my desk at work, which, granted, is a mess, but an organized mess; it wasn’t there.  I looked in my bedroom with the books on the floor, the books in the night stand, the [...]

The good, the bad, and the ugly

  A weekend of camping with 23 high school seniors: The good: saw a rainbow around the sun.  Very cool. The bad: sleeping on the ground sucks even more when you get older.  Oh, and not getting enough sleep sucks. The ugly: students who don’t give a crap about anyone else in the world…or at the [...]
