Tomorrow he begins his long journey home. The time has passed quickly and so very slow at the same time. I can't wait.

Glitter and I are finally home. Now we just have to find a place to live--hopefully before I tear my hair out.**Hair tearing out due to house hunting, not our amazing trip.

1. I can't stand it when I am at any restaurant (or snack bar) that involves standing at a counter while waiting for food, and another customer feels it necessary to start cramming food in their mouth. I don't care if it is your favorite food in the world or if you're starving or if you're blood sugar is bottoming out. Go sit down. I don't want to see or hear you stuffing your face directly above

It means more to me this year than ever before.Even if you don't agree with what's going on in the world, take a few minutes to be grateful for the men and women who have fought for your freedom.

You might not get it, but it made me happy.

Hairyshoefairy was one of the first bloggers that I blog stalked. Almost three years later, I was finally able to meet her and her two cute kiddos.Glitter and Peanut had the typical two year old conversations, "That's mine." "No, it's mine."But when they weren't fighting over princess dresses or kitchen utensils, they got along great.HSF rocks. I'm just bummed that she lives over 2000 miles away.

My birthday is in a few weeks. Dr. Mario will be 6989 miles from me on my birthday, so I'm supposed to help him out. What do I want for my birthday?(Unfair answer: for him to come home early. I already asked. He also doesn't want to get me a Scooba.)*If you are NOT a member of my family, and you know what movie this is from, I will send you a prize in the mail.

This is what I saw in the back seat of my car at 10:30 tonight.Yes it was dark outside.Yes she was awake.No that is not the hand that had two fingers slammed in the car door a few weeks ago.Yes I cried too.

If you don't know how to do something, you either phone a friend or google it. (50-50 and ask the audience don't work well in real life.) Last night at the grocery store it was too late to phone a friend, but fortunately the phone Dr. Mario left with me while he's out of the country has internet access.My sister and I were running around the grocery store last night trying to figure out what to

1. Glitter and I are bored, so we're traveling around the country. Some of you know that. I'll tell you all about it later, in case anyone is trying to stalk us in my new car.2. Why do women feel the need to make that weird pouty face when having their picture taken? Kind of like they are trying to pucker up after collagen injections. It's not as sexy as they think it is.3. I have found and "

Every year I get grandiose thoughts of pulling some prank on the first of April. And yet...I got nothin'. Two questions:1. Do you have anything planned to make today a little more interesting? 2. What is the best prank you have ever thought up or actually carried out? (I expect to know if you actually did it. Our friendship hinges on it.)

1. Glitter was practicing her ninja stealth skills at the zoo the other day. 2. She slept in a toddler bed last week for the first time. I had a hard time not sitting by her bed and watching her sleep. Then I realized that she was asleep, and I should get out quick.3. Glitter and I are headed out around the country. Yes, I'm road-tripping it with a two-year-old. (lot of hyphens for one sentence

1. My obnoxious, bass-pumping-between-midnight-and-four-in-the-morning neighbors. And the coming and going (which includes slamming car doors, setting car alarms, and more bass pumping) ALL NIGHT LONG. (Any ideas other than earplugs?)2. Links to private blogs embedded in a post. What's the point?3. Loud, open-mouth chewing.4. People that sit in their car outside a house and honk until whoever (or

I'm not feeling too lovey this year, so I'm sending you here. I couldn't agree with her more.Thank you Carrot and No Cool Story. You both rock.

1. An OnStar commercial just brought tears to my eyes.2. Tomorrow I will be celebrating Valentine's Day for one. It's going to be fabulous.3. I love Wikipedia. You can find out all kinds of good things. Like how to negotiate a raise.4. Krispy Kreme.5. I went outside to find a light dusting of pollen all over my new car today. I think it's time for a road trip.6. "When I Need You" by Leo Sayer7. I

This is what I found the other night when I checked on Glitter before I tucked myself in. I promise that when I put her to bed, her head was on the pillow, and her blankets were arranged over and around her like she "needs" them to be.

It was supposed to be wordless, but I heard that it didn't make sense. Glitter set her blankies up at the table for lunch. She even buckled the red one into her booster seat. Then she whispered to them that they were having macaroni and cheese for lunch.

I've been going to the gym. Not the point of the story. When I go, Glitter stays in the nursery provided by the gym. She loves it. She doesn't even look back when she walks through the door.When I return, it's another story. She is so excited to see her mama that she throws everything to the floor puts everything away neatly and takes off running towards me. I get that she is two years old, and

1. I spotted my first skin tag on my neck the other day. I've had a head full of gray hair for years now, but this sign of aging is new. Must be the water aerobics. (Love you mom!)2. My little sister gave me one of these for Christmas. Very cool, very dark. I tried to take a picture of myself with it on. Something about not being able to see anything...3. Only 163 days left. Why does time go SO.

Your Word is "Love"You see life as possibility to form deep connections with a few people.Relationships are the center of your world, and you always take time to bond with those you love.You are caring and giving. You enjoy helping those you love.And when it comes to romantic love, you feel passionately ... even in a very long term relationship.What's Your Word?

Now that the dust has begun to settle, I have to let you know how easy my holiday shopping was. I had a wide variety of personalities that I wanted to give gifts for Christmas. I'm not a huge fan of running around in holiday traffic and spending all day long at the mall. Truthfully, two hours of shopping is my limit. Especially with a toddler.This year I spent some time in TJ Maxx and Marshalls.

I've got all kinds of ideas for myself for this next year. I don't know how much that is worth though. Ask me what my ideas for this year were. Never mind, I don't remember. It's only slightly depressing because every 365 1/4 days we have a chance to try again. I love a fresh start.Does anyone want to share their plans for this year?Or not.
