Tomorrow, I get to wear eye makeup again. It's one of those funny things that you take for granted. I never wear it on the weekends unless I am going out at night, but at work, I usually have at least some eye liner on. Often time mascara and a light dusting of shadow too.... Continue Reading →

Summertime
As requested, a photo of the boys taken Sat night during their play date. DS1 with his longer black hair (that I don't like!). Ah well. They were playing video games together. A rose from SP just because and more orange dahlias. It seems that the orange variety blooms earlier in the season and I... Continue Reading →
I can see clearly now
Earworm special. Everybody sing!The procedure went perfectly. Now I get the fun of waiting for my brain to adjust to this monovision thing. As the doc said this morning at the follow-up exam, it's like you took one contact out. Right now, the left eye seems to be the one struggling actually to establish itself.... Continue Reading →
Another priceless moment

Weekend in review – YearlyKos 2006
What a weekend! More than I imagined. As a member of the Digger community said to me today – this netroots progressive community has turned into a genuine movement which has the feeling of the 60s. Community. Family. Those words to me were the central theme of this gathering. Yes, it was politically motivated. Yes,... Continue Reading →
Gardening rewards
First dahlia to bloom! Tons of buds on this one and the other 7 plants in the pots. Only 1 bulb never appeared which is not too bad. For some reason this orange one though is about a foot and a half taller than all the others.No idea what this is! It seems to be... Continue Reading →
Suckra..err..Sacramento
The state capitol building. With protesters out front on the Saturday before a primary election.Apparently this group wants the voters to listen to Jesus before voting 🙂 They were so loud that our school group decided to use a side entrance rather than this main one. The Assembly chamber. Colored in green to represent the... Continue Reading →
I should have known I would not sleep tonight
My mind will not shut down. Mostly it is because of the trip to Sacramento tomorrow with DS2 4th grade class. We are being picked up at 5:30am and anytime I have to leave my house for a trip especially earlier than I am normally up, I have trouble getting to sleep. Tonight I was... Continue Reading →
