What is your favorite kind of cookie? Do you know how to make it?

My favorite kind of cookie is oatmeal scotchies, but I don't make them often. I'm "almost famous" for my oatmeal raisin cookies, but I like them better with butterscotch in them (because I LOVE butterscotch)

Whatcha wearing today? Do you like it???

Yes. I like it very much. It's a fairly new outfit. I'm wearing black pants, new black wedge shoes and a blouse that's kind of hard to describe, but it's very pretty. In fact, I was just in the elevator and a girl from my company complimented me on it. She said, "It's hump day, you should get a piece of a** wearing that blouse today." Yeah, I wish! Keep dreaming Alice, Wonderland's just around the corner.

It's hump day! YAY! Any plans yet for the weekend?

I have my kids this weekend. I have to take my dd to get her eyes checked (she flunked her eye exam at school). After that, I'm going to take them to see Shark Tale.

Funny thing one of the kids has done/said this week?

This isn't really funny, but it's sweet. I have a cut on my index finger on my right hand. I was at the table writing out checks, and it was hard for me because of the cut on my finger. My dd went in the bathroom, came out with a bandaid, put it on my finger, then kissed my finger for me.

SURPRISE! You just won $100!!!! YOU MUST use it on yourself. No bills, not on the kids, no exceptions! Whatcha doin' with it????

I would buy some CD's that I have been wanting to buy.

Reading anything good lately? Even an interesting magazine article?

No, I haven't had much time to read.

What's the weather like?

Cloudy, in the mid 60's and chance of rain.

What's one thing about your home/apartment/whatever that you just LOVE?

The thing I love most about my house, even though it's in the process of being remodeled, is that when I got divorced, I bought my exh out, and it's ALL MINE. Yeah.



What's for lunch - or what did you already HAVE for lunch today?

I had a salad for lunch.

What's cooking for dinner?

Not sure. Probably something I can put in the microwave. I know the kids have a lot of homework tonight, because we didn't finish all of last night's homework, so I want to make something fast.

Are you decorating for Halloween????

Mostly stuff on my windows, not too much outside. I'll do the decorating this weekend with the kids.

What is your favorite kind of cookie? Do you know how to make it?

I think it's soft oatmeal raisin, and yes I can make them.

Whatcha wearing today? Do you like it???

a black skirt with little red spirals on it (that remind me of ancient celtic rock drawings) a red tank and a black velvet jacket. And my red shou necklace that I almost ALWAYS wear. Yes, I love it. I'll change into black knit pants soon for karate, though.

It's hump day! YAY! Any plans yet for the weekend?

None yet...

Funny thing one of the kids has done/said this week?

There's a blanket of mine that Liz wants to take with her when she moves, she says I have to sleep with it every night now so it's very ME when she takes it with her.

SURPRISE! You just won $100!!!! YOU MUST use it on yourself. No bills, not on the kids, no exceptions! Whatcha doin' with it????

Holy moly...that's easy. LOL Right now I'd probably spend it on language books at Barnes and NOble, and a caffe latte with the change.

Reading anything good lately? Even an interesting magazine article?

Reading a lot for class about Margaret Mead, and a great article on color designation in the hanunoo tribe...very cool stuff

What's the weather like?

Today, cool and some sun. Nice

What's one thing about your home/apartment/whatever that you just LOVE?

My shoji lamps, and the fact that my master bedroom has it's own door to the bathroom.

What's for lunch - or what did you already HAVE for lunch today?

veggies with yogurt/guacamole dip, and a roast beef sandwich.

What's cooking for dinner?

Nothing. I've got two sickos at home, and the one well child and I are going to karate. We don't normally eat just before class...sensei has a "no puking" rule. LOL

Are you decorating for Halloween????

No, but I did get a costume. It's little, red, clip on barrette HORNS! They are so cute...and any sexy outfit will make them my "sexy devil" costume. I hope I get invited to a good party!!

I'm with Becky. Oreos. And Thank GOD I can't make them!!!!!

Whatcha wearing today? Do you like it???

I'm wearing a fine knit silk, short sleeved, v-neck, coral sweater that I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. I paired it with a tan skirt that I DO NOT like!!! LOL It hits me right at the knees and is pegged - and I walk with a VERY long stride. It's driving me bonkers.

It's hump day! YAY! Any plans yet for the weekend?

Friday night is my oldest's "Harvest Festival" at school, and we are all going as a family. Saturday morning I'm doing a 1 mile fun benefit walk - and that is it.

Funny thing one of the kids has done/said this week?

Alex is sick. Which isn't funny. It's pathetic. But at 3:30 this morning - he came walking into my room saying "Mommy! Nose! BOOGIES, MOMMY! BOOGIES! EWWWWWWWWW GROSS! MOMMY!!!!" I started laughing. What a way to be woken up!

SURPRISE! You just won $100!!!! YOU MUST use it on yourself. No bills, not on the kids, no exceptions! Whatcha doin' with it????

I'm getting my hair cut and colored.

Reading anything good lately? Even an interesting magazine article?

I'm reading "O" magazine from October 2003 (my mom and I and two other friends have one subscription and we pass them around - I'm just now getting this one! LOL) There is article in there about 20s, 30s, 40s, that I'm LOVING.

What's the weather like?

It's GORGEOUS. Sunny, clear blue sky, breezy, and 72.

What's one thing about your home/apartment/whatever that you just LOVE?

The balcony. Great view of the sun setting over the mountains every single night.

What's for lunch - or what did you already HAVE for lunch today?

I had a peanut butter jelly sandwhich. It was good! And reeses peanut butter cups. And I'm NOT apologizing!

What's cooking for dinner?

Baked pork chops that have been marinating in Italian dressing all day, mashed potatos and carrots.

Are you decorating for Halloween????

Besides a jack-o-lantern, I REALLY don't want to. Oldest ds is BEGGING - and the neighbors are all decorating - which is making it even WORSE. I feel like such a scrooge - but I REALLY don't want to!!!!!

What is your favorite kind of cookie? I don't eat cookies now, but as a kid I used to LOVE Nilla Wafers with milk...I could eat the whole box! Do you know how to make it? Uh…no…but I suppose I could find out.

Whatcha wearing today? Do you like it??? I’m wearing a black skirt, black tights, boots and a fuchsia colored sweater.

It's hump day! YAY! Any plans yet for the weekend? Sleep, sex and dining out! (no kids this weekend)

Funny thing one of the kids has done/said this week? My daughter gave me a slip of paper the other day with a check mark on it. She said that was a check for not listening to her when she was talking. Apparently if I get three checks I have to skip recess!

SURPRISE! You just won $100!!!! YOU MUST use it on yourself. No bills, not on the kids, no exceptions! Whatcha doin' with it???? Ooooh!! I spending it on my favorite Philosophy products- “Hope in a Jar” face cream and “Cinnamon Buns” Shampoo.

Reading anything good lately? Even an interesting magazine article? I just finished reading Anne Rice’s latest Blood Canticle. I love the Vampire Chronicles, but was not too impressed with this one.

What's the weather like? It’s sunny, clear blue skies, about 68 degrees. Beautiful! Gorgeous! Wish you were here!

What's one thing about your home/apartment/whatever that you just LOVE? My bedroom. It’s big and its my sanctuary.

What's cooking for dinner? I’m reheating the Thai Peanut Chicken w/Spinach that I made last night.

Are you decorating for Halloween???? Oh yes, let me take a moment to explain. New house, 4 kids! We are putting a giant spider on our front door with webbing all around it. A glow in the dark skeleton on the window and tombstones on our lawn. A flashing light and spooky music. We hung a piece of tubing from our upstairs window that aims at the front door. So when brave kids come to ring our doorbell, the candy will shoot out of the pipe from behind them. Hee! Hee!

Funny thing one of the kids has done/said this week?

He was so cute when he told about his experience with the butterfly that sat on his finger. AND I had to laugh when he was talking to his dad on the cordless phone and skated out of range on his rollerblades. HAH!! Okay - so that is mean - but his dad was totally puzzled by how the call would get dropped.

NO - my DS always goes to his dad's for Halloween and I am being good about staying on my budget and can't stand to hear the doorbell ring when I am alone so I don't stay here for that one.

My plans for the weekend is Friday night my Diva's are coming to my house for some margaritas and everyone is bringing an appetizer and a dessert and to see wedding pic. Which I am hoping I get some by then but they have some for me so I will see some, I guess. Then I am sleeping in Sat morning..no kids and then I am probably going to work a little bit while J fixes his truck and then Sat. night taking my parents out to dinner in appreciation for them taking so good care of my cherubs while we were honeymooning. Then Sunday just be with J for the entire day.

Funny thing one of the kids has done/said this week?

Last night, I hurt my back some how and the boys said to me "Mom, if you need to get something, let us know and WE will get it for you", then Mom, why don't you just lay down and WE will take care of the dishes and cleaning up after dinner and then we will rub your back for you." Love them...and they did rub my back too.
