The work Christmas cards. Is it tacky to mail them up and until December 23rd? The slacker that I am at the office lately, I didn't get the client cards mailed. I ordered the opalescent starry dream cards in plenty time, but I chose to complete other tasks at home. Priorities. Being a working Mom, I... Sign in to see full entry.

The Country Club party was non- eventful and even more boring than I had invisioned. Lots of old people talking about the new building and the greens committee. The men all talked about what games they were betting or had won that day betting and what the odds spread is. The under and the over they... Sign in to see full entry.
Wrote to an old college professor. Where else, but found him on the internet. He now has published five more books. Sent him a blast from the past email. I ordered a couple books on line. I think he will remember me as the jock ( I was a swimmer in undergrad). He used to tease me about being a jock,... Sign in to see full entry.

Cleaned the whole house. Everything is ship shape and no finger prints. Well there are a few dog nose prints on the French doors, but Honey had to peek on them right after I scrubbed them down. I think she was playing a game like a child indoors smashing the face in horror against the window pane.... Sign in to see full entry.

Boat Parade Party Sunday. The most fun party. The weather seems warmer so I won't have to wear the layers. I'm going to wear glittery silver and black velvet. In trade for the Country Club gig he goes to the Boat Parade party with my friends. All's fair. Sign in to see full entry.

Country Club Party
The dreaded Country Club Christmas party. Saturday night the kids are gone and the boyfriend wants to go. God save the Queen. It's only a boys club for boys who walk around with sticks and drink too much. Last year I faked illness and was able to escape being called " Ivy League" or " The Brain"...

Teenage Blues
Writing a new mental contract for the now thirteen year old. Yes she turned teenager and all hell has broken loose. Can't get her in the car to go to school on time and she delays us all. Can't get her to bed because she isn't tired but can't get up in the morning. Can't get her to eat healthy foods... Sign in to see full entry.

Monday and it's not even early morning and I am sore all over moving slow. It's going to take more than a cup of green tea to get me working at the job. Saturday morning was amazing- a break from foggy cool mornings. Clean hot the sun woke me up at six fifteen, late. My daughter and I went surfing... Sign in to see full entry.

My Computer at Work Had a Cold. Thank Heavens for the Fed Ex guy who just brings you a new one. For once in my life I have backed up the information - as my novel is getting so big I would have a major crying fit if I lost it. The funny thing -I could see it starting, as this is not the first time... Sign in to see full entry.

Bandaids and Pirate costumes
Sometimes I resemble Lucy Ricardo and sometimes Wonderwoman. So just imagine a Lucy in a super hero costume. I ended up with twelve stiches in the front of my leg, just above the ankle. The doctor was concerned about prescribing viacaden,and my response was that my metabolism does not do well with... Sign in to see full entry.
