weekend, what weekend ?

I worked on Saturday afternoon and had a travelogue today, so I'm feeling weekend deprived. I did have the day off on Friday though, and went gallivanting, so I guess that counts. We discovered in our wandering the Tadco store where you can get baking/cooking supplies you won't always find at the grocery store. We bought some fun stuff like purple sticky rice (can't wait to try it), and some cherry filling for donuts or danish, which Matthew put in some almond bread. YUM! And we finally went to the Christmas Tree store, which was like a giant dollar store. We filed away their many inexpensive items for later shopping trips. (And bought a few things too. Elizabeth couldn't resist the dryer balls, and I wanted new cookie sheets.) I'm also on the lookout for VBS craft ideas (yes, already) and inexpensive stores like that often provide great raw materials. Its in the same plaza as AC Moore, and practically next door to Tadco, so I won't mind a return trip one of these days. Next weekend
is the Youth Group sponsored Easter Egg hunt, and I've planned a craft for that event too, so I guess I just can't help myself. :)
Now, if only my creative juices would write something for the Town Times I could rest peacefully. Well, actually it won't disturb my sleep, but I still wish I had something clever to submit. Tomorrow...

I am exhausted

So why am I blogging not sleeping?
I just worked essentially a 12-hour day. (Thank goodness for a wonderful dinner prepared by my kids!) Classes this morning, showing a movie, busy reference shift, Advisory Board meeting, and even filling the gas tank. But I still feel somewhat unsettled like I've left things undone. (Am I turning into a raving psychotic? Oh no...) I'm looking forward to chilling out tomorrow. I'm off to the pool first thing, and then maybe some shopping with E. Definitely need groceries too.

okay brain is shutting down. dessert and then bed. nighty night.

Raving Psychotic

Maybe I should change the name of my blog. Then perhaps I'd post more often. It came out in conversation yesterday, and its not totally untrue, that I haven't been blogging beacuse I would look like a raving (or is it ranting?) psychotic. I know, you're thinking, so what? Aren't most bloggers ranting psychotics? That being as it were I shouldn't use it as an excuse...But really I hate coming off as if I'm always complaining, and maybe in my mind those complaints were foremost. Anyway I resolve to strive harder to find non-psychotic things to talk about.
Speaking of yesterday's lunch...I enjyed a nice time with my 2 favorite college seniors checking out UB's campus, esp. the libraries, and an apartment for next year. I like that they considered my opinion important, because I really do want to see them happy. Yes they were excited, but so am I. Also just a little bit concerned...time is going too fast and I miss my "little girl". But since I really like my adult girl too I'll manage.
