I feel kinda stupid

I just took this quiz and only got 40.  In my defense ... there's no good excuse, actually.

Kate's going to kick my ass on this one.

Bleh

My day included the following:

• A layoff
• A meeting about nursing school that scared the bejesus out of me
• A chicken sandwich
• Three instances of getting teary-eyed but not actually crying
• One minor freak-out with actual crying
• A little bit of soul searching
• 1.2 margaritas
• 1 sip of peppermint schnapps
• One new cousin-in-law (Welcome, Samuel Christopher)

I think it’s time for a nap.

A kitty plays in the snow, and a farewell

This is my last post on the Pikes Peak Parent Mommy Blog, and I just wanted to say thanks to those who have been following Kaylee's adventures.  I have had a lot of fun sharing them with you.

My last day with The Gazette is tomorrow, and after that I'll be staying home with my little girl, trying to figure out ways to keep her busy seven days a week.  I hope I survive.

I'll continue to blog about Kaylee on my personal web site.  Anyone who's interested in following along can e-mail me to find out where that is.  My e-mail: hmcdonnell AT gmail DOT com

And as promised, here's that kitty:

Urgent surgery required

It suddenly occurred to me this morning that Rob and I really should get laser eye surgery, the sooner the better.  Since I wear contacts all of the time, most of you may not realize that without them, I wouldn't be able to recognize my mother standing five feet away from me.

So this morning I was thinking about the zombie apocalypse, as I often do, and I realized that when all hell breaks loose, I might not have time to put in my contacts or locate my glasses.

It's important to think about these things.
