award, list

Stacey over at ArtSnark’s Artifacts passed this award along to me. Thank you, Stacey!

As part of this award, I need to list 5 things I’m “into”.

  1. I just finished reading Truth and Beauty, which is about the friendship between Ann Patchett and Lucy Grealy, and so now I need to read Autobiography of a Face, by Lucy Grealy.
  2. My favorite cookbook right now is Hot Dish Heaven. I really want to make some cauliflower cheese!
  3. For Christmas, Ed gave my sister and me webcams. We finally have them set up, and it’s a great way for my sister to keep in touch with her nieces. Now I need to get my other sister, my brother and my parents set up.
  4. I love blogging, and want to work on improving my writing and computer skills. I just found a way to make my own button! I know, it looks a little amateurist since I don’t have Photoshop, but I had fun making it! I found the directions at Oikology 101.
  5. I’m into my husband. He cleans up the kitchen after dinner, AND he bought me birthday cake! (I’m also really into my girls, but that goes without saying, right?)

I’m passing on this award to these five bloggers. Please visit their blogs, and give them some nice comments!

  1. Christine at The Book Bench; she blogs about books I might not otherwise hear about.
  2. Becky over at Suburban Matron; be extra nice to Becky; Target really let her down yesterday.
  3. Chris blogs at two sites: Coke On My Keyboard and Text Imps. She always writes great comments!
  4. Shangrila at My Bella Figlia; she has three kids AND still finds time to knit!
  5. Keely over at The Un-Mom has a warped sense of humor that always makes me laugh. She also blogs at A Letter for Xander.

Turning 40

Today is Groundhog Day. He saw his shadow…six more weeks of winter…BOO!
Today is also my birthday. Should I write 40 things about turning 40? Let’s see…

  1. My first class of second graders will be turning 26 years old this year.
  2. Some of those kids probably have kids the same age as my kids (or older…eek!)
  3. I’ll be thirteen years cancer-free this year. Is that good luck or bad?
  4. I get the feeling I’m doing things backwards. Isn’t cancer supposed to come last?
  5. I got married on Columbus’ birthday when I was 33. I thought that was old.
  6. I was 35 when I had my first baby, the same age my mom was when she had her last baby.
  7. I was 38 when Emmy was born. My obstetrician said he admired me. He is the same age I am, and couldn’t imagine having the energy to run after a 2 year-old while 8 months pregnant. Dude, don’t you get up at all hours of the night to deliver babies?
  8. I’m 40 and just used the word “dude.” Scary.
  9. I caught myself reading More Magazine at the doctor’s office. I was enjoying it. Scary.
  10. I pulled an all-nighter last night. Emmy has an ear infection and didn’t want to lie down in her crib. Were all-nighters more fun in college?
  11. I’m 40. I really don’t have the creativity energy desire to write 29 more things about turning 40. Wait, shouldn’t I write something about reaching my sexual peak? …And this is why I’m ending my list.
