If you can send some good vibes etc, i'd love it :D
Good vibes on their way CC, enjoy your swim!
Thank you all for the wonderful positive thoughts and the beautiful butterflies! They must be working - it looks like we have a plan. DH will have to take courses, there will be some investment, and we think he can work, or at the very least collect EI, until he starts making money at it - hopefully within just a few months.
The next little while will be tough, so, if you can spare them and think of it, your random good thoughts and butterflies will be greatly appreciated.
CC - sending you special amphibious butterflies to keep you fast, and keep the stingers away. You'll have a great swim!
Kit - have a fabulous birthday and a great weekend!
We had snow and then freezing rain today. I guess it is winter.
This week we saw Metallica - great seats, big show, big stage, big flames, good sound, huge crowd. It was quite good. Then we saw Nine Inch Nails - smaller venue, amazing light show (curtains of LEDs that did soooooooooooooooo many things), great sound. It was fantastic! And I got to see my friend that I haven't seen in 3 years! That was sooooo wonderful! And she's got a franchise business called Kix4Chix - a ladies only kickboxing business. I used to go to the classes before we moved and it was so fabulous. I sure hope that DH or I can find someone who wants to invest and start one locally. I really want to start taking those classes again!
And she's interested in selling products that my company has. I'll be talking to my boss about that next week, and am hoping we can get her carrying our programmed stainless steel water bottles. She's really pumped about it.
Life really is good. :) Everyone, have a great weekend!
Hugs and butterflies,
~T~
CC, didn't you once tell me about the Australian movie "The Black Balloon", about a family with an autistic son? There's a review of it in the NY Times online today because it's opening in NYC.
Good morning, all. I do in fact have a cold. So be it. Punishment for not drinking the Drambuie when I had the chance,
It's never too late (or too early) for Drambuie ;)
Just for your entertainment, a couple of NY pics. The first one shows the back of my coat against the architecture of the Guggenheim Museum. For some reason, I found that juxtaposition entertaining. As you know, I am easily amused. The second is Chris' $20 picture of NYC at night. $20 because that's how much they charged to let people go up to the building's viewpoint. He asked me if I wanted to come along and I said something like "I'm not paying $40 to those people for one $%($%^U# lousy aerial view picture", so I stayed on the ground and watched the ice skaters at Rockefeller Plaza. It IS a good picture, though. The third is a picture of an especially gorgeous bowl at the Museum of Art and Design.
