This is not my first blog, and may not be my last, but it's my current blog and that's good enough.
It's the end of December, that quiet time between Christmas Day and back to work (Monday) that always turns me introspective and usually depresses me a bit too.
Reasons my life sucks:
1. I hate the way my clothes fit and I hate that I let myself get too big for them.
2. I don't teach art anymore. I miss the most interesting job I ever had.
3. I feel so mundane and pointless sometimes.
4. Living with a depressed person can easily drain the life out of you.
Reasons my life is great:
1. That depressed person is the man I love more than anything in the world and I'm proud of the 26+ years we've been together.
2. My kids are genius.
3. Cupcakes!
4. I have a wonderful new job where I'm hopefully making an impact on the cutest 5 and 6 year old in the world.
5. I have a cute little house and a precious kitty.
6. I'm rarely bored.
7. Books!
8. Knitting!!
9. New York City!
Hi Lynna! Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog. Sorry it's taken me so long to answer your question. I think it's a great idea to ask parents to donate books to the classroom or to a charity. Both are fantastic ideas! But, as a parent, I would probably still send in something for the teacher, but that's just me.
ReplyDeleteAs for adding my blog, I think you can just log into your blog and then click on the large "B" in the top left corner (in your overview.) Then, scroll down and on the left you'll see a button that says "Add." Just click on that and add my blog url.
Hope you having a fabulous 2012!
