random monday thoughts.

• picture above, by ashlyn. every day at school they practice writing their name, then flip the paper over and draw a picture on the back. so i have quite a collection of drawings. just wish she didn't wad them up trying to cram them into her backpack.
• what happened to "xyz"? must of run out of time.
• need that happy art today to help keep the tears away.
• this month has been a rough month emotionally.
• feeling rather sluggish today after doing a major overhaul of the studio AND the playroom over the weekend. oh, and painting the hallway
• *yawn*. i'm tired.
• watched No Reservations over the weekend. that little abigail breslin it a great actress. good movie, but wished i hadn't watched. don't recommend it if you've lost someone close to you recently.
• 2 days on, 1 off, 2 days on.......ash's preschool schedule this week.
• the funniest thing emma says lately "ewwww, that's disgusting." i laugh every time. and sometimes we ask her to say it just to hear it and have a little chuckle.
• lots on the chore list today. folding laundry is top 'o the list.
• started the looooong process of backing up all 2007 photos onto CDs last night. still don't own an external harddrive. someday i'll get with the techno age.
• studio storage idea pictures coming later this week (for those that asked)
• clean desk is already on it's way to being a mess again. that's a good thing.
• today would have been mom's 51st birthday. miss her so much.

be back later with some happy thoughts.
