On Fridays, particularly one before this coming week

Here we are. Wrapping a business week up, looking Mother's Day straight in the eye and generally pushing on through.

When I look back at the week I'm amazed. At what was on the To Do list, what remains, and what will simply have to wait for me to return from NYC to deal with. There's no end of crushingly pressing (redundant I know but I like it anyway, today I like that phrase) projects to initiate/execute upon/complete. And in spite of my handing them off for care and feeding in my absence, they still seem to be here when I get back.

See, and I think it's ok to admit this, I'm already there. In the Big Apple. With my soon to be high school graduate and Hubby, awaiting Son's big graduation ceremonies.

I'm already feeling the energy of the other families, feeling the pride that accompanies being truly, honestly, completely blessed, and knowing that somewhere, somehow, something terribly important or a series of terribly important, or more likely an endless stream of seemingly insignificant but as a whole very important universal events went exactly right.

And I'm loving the feeling.

Schnazzed up Desert Magnolia..again, thanks to LP the graphics guru!

Happy Thursday, everyone! Nope, it's not quite Spring yet, but sometimes a girl's gotta get a new 'do. Or in this case this girl's gotta get a new blog header. You know what I mean. Thank you LP! You rock. I love the artistic approach..it's soft but nice and still says, 'Enter here at your own risk, for opinions of a strong nature are sure to be expressed.' That's how I see it, anyway.

What do you wear in Austin in October??

It's suppose to be in the 80's during the day, and only in the 70's at night. It's humid. I'm not sure what to pack. For once I'm attending a conference instead of having a booth at the tradeshow and networking that way. It's going to be good...to be in the classroom, listening to what people are caring about now. I look forward to it. But I'm spending way too much time worrying about whether jeans are too hot, capris are too cliche, clogs are passe, should I just go with a theme and be done with it, and all that crap. Seriously, you'd think I have better things to waste mental energy on, right? Apparently not so much.

Stormy Tuesday, with a chance of showers too....

The emotions, to say they're wildly fluctuating would be an exaggeration, but they are certainly not balanced and I am so not centered and I'm finding it really hard to maintain my train of thought and I'm now even more worried about my son moving to Abu Dhabi now that they're further limiting Blackberry communications, and my daughter has a stomach bug. But other than that, everything's cool in my world. Son heads to Abu Dhabi this Saturday, early evening my time. Daughter heads to Providence, RI, this Saturday, before lunch. Hubby just informed me we're committed to a dinner at his department head's house Saturday night for a 'casual evening with the new headmaster and his wife.' Are you kidding me? WTF? Of all the things I want to be doing Saturday night, I'm pretty sure schmoozing with the new guy (hub's boss for hell sake) is NOT on the list. My list looks more like this: Take a nap after first wave of absolute searingly...
