Tabi in her “glasses” without lenses that she likes to wear to school. And Tabi today at her music concert at school. I spent the morning at the oral surgeon where Mist had 3 baby teeth extracted. She is home with some movies and a Starbucks Cream Brule frapaccino (sp?)
\u00a0I embarrassed myself at the surgeon–asking him if he remembered some of the stories I’d heard about him from my sister Theresa–back in the days when he was an undergraduate at the U of S. Mist dared me to ask him about the “vodka” story–and you know me–I’m not afraid of dares. So I asked him if he remembered drinking my sister’s vodka bottle she was saving and replacing it with water–he didn’t! And of course he was totally taken a back. He is now a distinguished, dental surgeon…those days aren’t even on his memory radar. He didn’t say this, of course, but man, he wasn’t any fun. Nice enough of course, a very nice, serious doctor–but not one who was ever young and carefree! Misty wanted me to ask if he remembered his old college nick name “Wham” but I refused–I might give the guy a cardiac arrest at that one! Oh well, if somehow I’ve triggered a memory that makes him think–I’ll feel like it was worth it. No one needs to turn all serious and boring.
Tonight the UBCO ED Christmas party. I am going Calvin Klein this year.
My December will be Christmas shopping(I am horrible–I keep finding cool stuff for myself!), Zenning my girls rooms and giving away tons of toys and clothing. And starting on my Ethics Review application and writing a proposal for a paper to present at a conference this winter.
That is it.
My focus is to apply for my PhD next fall at U of C. I am absolutely dying to get back to writing fiction and painting. I am really wanting to do both right now. I have a plan that really inspires me–but no time. Life is a constant struggle. I want MONEY. Unless a job I’d love comes up before then, I’ll keep going for the PhD. But hey, I will keep checking for jobs I’d love.
I am a little bit freaked this season. Not motivated to do what is before me. I just want to write and paint. All else seems to just get in my way!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
