wednesday things

last night i made little Obama t-shirts and cookies for my boys (we made the sugar cookies from scratch not from a roll:) Danny calls him Bobama and Sam wrote a school paper last month on what he wishes for and he wished for Obama to fix the country :)

anyway.... whenever i have a wave of energy i totally stress that it's one of those bipolar manic 5 minutes. but then i get all tired again and it goes away (ha!)

Aaron told me in bed that on wikipedia people sometimes make stuff up. grrr! so my first port of call this morning was to check if John Peel is really dead. looked at BBC (they don't make stuff up) and he is. sigh. it will be the FOUR YEAR anniversary on friday.... which incidentally will the 17th anniversary of my very first trip to the USA!

i am giving my beloved, much-pored-over, raggedy US citizenshipship study flash cards to my Canadian neighbor to cram for her exam today. i dont know if it will help but i turned over the questions on my exam... hope she gets the same test as me:)

i neeeeed a relaxing weekend away so badly. a break somewhere comfortable and zen with no kids whatsoever or distractions or noise. my lunchtime project for the day...

the park




mercy dash to target for "sparkles" ie halloween sprinkles... that's his peace sign btw :)


we dropped the letter A. not our lucky letter this week :)
