F... Attack
I hear them coming. They make little licking and sucking noises. They get closer, closer, TLUK!
This is it, they attache themselves to my stomach, my legs, my behind, adjusting ever so slightly so installation is permanent.
I try to say 'no', I try to shake them off, I stretch, jump, cycle, try to shake them off in water and on land but the attachment is strong.
They are calories and they will not let me go! (literally, I'm heavier).

Trees Treason
We had to do it. They were raising the floor, threatening our soon-to-be roof, we had to do it. Sorry trees...

Hurry Up, My Cement is Getting Cold
Surprisingly enough, cement does get cold. Our cement guy has special blankets for it. See below:
I stood there long enough to take pictures and hear Mike's patient explanation about construction stuff and my ears almost fell off. IT'S SO COLD!

Posts I Havn't Written
It's been a while since I wrote, sorry I've been away for so long...
I thought about you almost everyday, tossing titles for the next post in my head, not getting to use them.
Hear they are for your inspection - choose the best one and I'll write about it:
Sara Brown.
I thought about you almost everyday, tossing titles for the next post in my head, not getting to use them.
Hear they are for your inspection - choose the best one and I'll write about it:
- Windex, Paper towel, GO - stories of the 24 hour virus
- If everyone else has HW and he doesn't, it doesn't necessarily means he's a genius, it might be he's NOT DOING IT - stories of the homeworkly pressed
- Thank G-d I'm out of the electric closet - mapping out a new work place
- Building permits are no picnic - well, Da...
- The sweet illusion of part time positions - if you're a working mom you know what I mean
- The door left ajar is the hardest one - mystery
Sara Brown.

My Life in Increments
24 hours in a day. That's 1,440 minutes a day. I sleep for some, so that's lost.
7 days in a week. Two of which are weekend days. Weekend days are stretched. They worth more. I cram much more into my weekend list.
60 minutes in an hour, 10,080 minutes in a week.
It takes 15 min. to move about town in every which direction.
It takes 30 min. to get to any store, work, etc. Then you have to get back, so double that time.
School has about one event a month you have to be in. Lost two hours including the drive.
Grocery shopping takes about two hours a week, if you are really, absolutely, no nonsense, ridiculously efficient shopper. I can't. I tend to follow my eyes, daydream, feel hungry, shop for more then we need. With kids? - add 15 min. at list.
Walking the dog = 15 min. twice a day.
Showers, other mundane everyday human needs - about two hours a day.
Homework, programs, lectures, extra curricular classes, wait to pick up - about 7 hours a week.
Computer/gadget time - 3 hours a week. OK, OK, it's more.... I don't know how much more? How many?
Are we there yet?
What will I do when I retire?

On a Sweet Day I Can Sweat Forever
A riddle:
If Sara Brown ate 2, no-3, OK, maybe 4 or 5 , actually...7 candies, how many miles should she walk to get those off, out and away from her belly line?
An answer:
If she eats while walking she can eat-walk forever!
Halloween is over, excess candies carefully taken to the office yet the kids get to keep theirs...
Handsome saved only what he liked and that stash (thank goodness) is almost done with. But Princess likes variety, hence she kept most of what she got (nice looking pile), causing for the sweets bucket in the kitchen cabinet. I don't even like those candy bars but I learned how to open one without noising with the cellophane wrapper....
