What the hay???

Today at 9:03 a.m. the husband and I will officially be parents of a teenager.  How did this happen?  Wasn't I just in high school?  On Tuesday night I went with Oldest Daughter to New Beginnings for Young Women's since she will turn 12 this year.  It was pretty weird to go as a parent and not as a youth.  Where has the time gone???  I don't feel as old as I am.  Yikes!!!!!

Inception

Well, I finally saw Inception last night with the husband.  Wow!  I don't think my heart stopped racing until the end.  My hands kept tingling like after an adrenaline rush or sleep jerk.  The hardest part to watch was when the van was falling into the water.  I have recurring dreams about us driving into water and not being able to get everyone out of the car.  It was a very interesting movie.  I'd have liked to watch it again, but it got sent back this morning.  There's not been a whole lot of movies I'd want to watch again right after I just watched it.

Out, dang cold sore!

I don't usually have the urge to curse, but when I get a cold sore, watch out!  I have a strong desire to tell that cold sore where to go, how fast to get there and what to do along the way.  Good thing my kids even object to words like "stupid, crap, dummy, etc."  Not that I say those words much. ;)



Piano Lessons

The kids had their first piano lesson yesterday.  Some kids were more enthusiastic about it than others, but they all participated.  They learned where middle C is, how to number their fingers, and what FACE and EGBDF stand for.  Overall it went very well.  It helped that their teacher remained calm and patient and nice.  I am that teacher and am very proud of myself.
