Mom is Just a Nickname

Our NYE is going to be spent at home. We’ll probably watch the Muppets Movie and eat popcorn. We may burn a giant sparkler my dad left with us at some point. We may drink champagne. We may ….

Go to bed early. Early, even for us. The kids want to stay up until midnight, but Toph and I are more interested in sleep than ringing in the new year.

Is that terrible? Are we boring? Oh well.

Missing: One cell phone. If found, please return to my daughter.

And earlier this week, my phone was lost…thankfully, it’s been found. What’s with losing phones this week?!

This blog is mostly defunct. Maybe the new year will change that. Maybe it won’t. It’s not as if I don’t have a million and one other things to do.  In September, we got a new dog. She’s an Australian Shepherd, about a year old, and in need of training and amusement.  Then in November, we bought a house.  So, of course, there’s all of the unpacking, organizing, and decorating to do there (not to mention the cleanup of the old house).

I’ve just finished my second semester in school.  It was a rough one and I didn’t finish everything I was supposed to, but luckily in the program I’m in, the class I didn’t finish will carry over.  By January 1, I’ll be starting a new semester and have more schoolwork to do.

Here’s to 2010 and the new adventures it will bring.
