Thankful Friday
The past few weeks have been rough to say the least. I was reading through blogs the other day and came across one that has a Thankful Friday post every week. I don't remember which blog I saw it on, so I apologize for not being able to give credit where it is due. In an attempt to counter all the stress and crap that have come my way, I am going to start listing things I am thankful for each week. Or try to, because my daughter and my thesis are keeping me very busy for the time being.
1. That I am a mommy
2. An AC adapter cord is all that was needed to fix my computer
3. Email/Gmail/Gmail chat/MySpace/Facebook
4. Emergency chocolate stash
5. Grilled cheese sandwiches

Studio Saturday.........late again........
As late as I am with my emails and blog postings, one would never guess that I get anything done on time. But I do for work and when I was in school. The problem is that 5 years suck the life energy out of you and don't give it back. But here are a few pictures from this week.
CPR training..........
and there is the bookcase full of libary books
...................
and finally the fabulous plastic green chairs for the kids to sit in.

Mariah and Studio Saturday all in one...
Lisa took some great pictures of Mariah today while at work. So all the lovely backgrounds are the campus of my school. Yes, I had to work on Saturday. Yuck. And I have plenty of time to play around with this post tonight because Lazy Ass is in the bathroom, washing her clothes, again today. I had to get up at 5:45am this morning to get to work on time. SHE WAS IN THE BATHROOM WASHING HER CLOTHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Washing her clothes is the only thing she does around here. She works the least of Lydia, Sandy, and I (I know she hasn't paid rent for two months) and yet she does the least work around here. Must be nice to be so lazy and inconsiderate of one of your roommates, who has a full time job. My bedroom is sandwiched between the bathroom and the laundry porch. So if I am not listening to her do laundry in the bathroom at odd hours, I am listening to her do laundry on the porch at 3 in the morning. Need to talk to her, but must calm down before I do and find a very passive aggressive way as well. If I could time it so I was talking on the phone complaining about her while she was here, the embarrassment might work. I doubt it though. She is my age and probably pretty set in her laziness. Ok, enjoy roommate complaining!!! Time for good pictures of Mariah!!! It was an absolutely beautiful day today after 1.5 weeks of rain. 
I will be redoing the zipper on Mariah in about two weeks. I have to work next Saturday as well, so next weekend is down the drain already. But the weekend after that is all for me. (Maybe I should block the front this time around?) Block, schmock I say.

Studio Saturday.........a day late
This is really late, especially if you consider the time difference. I figure that if I just put up little bits of my classroom, since I don't have an actual studio, it shouldn't cause too many problems. This is a math problem I put on the board. Joanna and Elizabeth are two of my sisters and if you know them, this is funny. The only way Joanna would ever give Elizabeth even one Oreo is if she was made too.
