One Day a Week

I am now down to one free day a week.

And that's only because I keep blocking it off.

Because one day is better than none.

Now I Can Announce

I am moving!

It's been in progress since June, but it was secret.
Finally the closing is near,
And I am beyond excited.

Here's to fresh starts,
In a new house,
With a nice new room,
And new beginnings all around.

Curbside Treasure

Really the guy actually asked me if I wanted it
And the doll house fell apart when I was trying to get it into my car.
But in the bottom was an American Girl sized couch
That I will use for the Kelly House I am making for my adoptive nieces to use.
And the backdrops to the house - if I can't get it back together - will serve well for backgrounds.
All in all, not bad for free stuff going to the curb today.

Wonder Woman Babysitter

This is me, Wonder Woman Babysitter.



Actually no, I don't know who that would be.

Instead, I'm just going to die.

Popsicle Girls

The two girls I nanny for got popsicles from their bus driver today.

Everybody on the bus got one.

Why?

Because it's 9/11.

I just don't get it.

Popsicles to celebrate a tragedy?

ETA: My brother informed me that it is because it's a memorial, but I doubt most kids on that bus understood that.

I Have Not Forgotten

I have not forgotten where I came from.

I just choose to love, not hate.

All Signed Up

So, I signed up for the baby-sitting part of the agency where I got my nanny job.

Now if only I could bribe the kids with lollipops.



Funny enough, the agency actually did send me a pink bag to use.
