I went grocery shopping today to get food for the next week with the kids. I don’t have to shop when they’re not here. I survive on the scraps that they leave behind. It’s amazing, really, how little I eat when I’m on my own. All I need is a loaf of bread and a bag of lentils. The scrapings out of the Cheeze Whiz jar. And coffee. I curse the person who got me hooked.

It’s been crazy warm, but that river doesn’t lie.

Goodbye fun and fashionable fall boots; hello ugly black clompers.

gym competition 2009 019

In tribute to a funny little collection of smiley face pictures found in everyday objects (as seen on the NPR site The Picture Show), I dug up the picture of the jam face that L found under her toast one morning.

And in a testament to how much time I devote to frivolity, here are some other cute smileys from this website.

Each one more adorable than the last, dontcha think?

I’ve told them and told them and told them about the time that I did a handstand in the kitchen and got very badly hurt, but do they listen? No, they do not.

Very busy today. Had to make the choice between going for a run or having a shower. Not enough time for both.

Good thing I don’t sweat.
