Day 262: me? Drive?

Sitting in the driver's seat...




I generally don't drive but I do it when necessary but that doesn't mean I don't want to pee my pants every time I end up on the highway!

Day 261: help! My brother is holding me!

I love the panicked look on kinji's face. Like he's freaking out that we let Daj hold him. "what are you guys thinking???!!! He's two!!!"

Day 258: battle scars

It's definitely not your best day when you've not only got papercuts and permanent marker all over your hand but you also have crazy glue dried on your finger from accidentally getting yourself stuck to the crazy glue applicator...

Up late making pecan tarts for Rich Sr's (Rich's dad and my boss) birthday...





It's really something special if I'm baking for you when I don't eat what I'm baking....

Day 254: it's been a while...

...since I tried my hand at artsyfartsiness...





...was at a bridal shower today and the bride's niece was handing out roses that she had plucked from her grandmother's vase. I was one of the lucky recipients...as was Haj, my roommate and lady contemplating the beauty of the roses in the background (or so I imagine)...

Day 253: to the grocery store...

I loved the way the sky looked through the trees when I was walking to the grocery store... Wish my phone could have done it justice...

Day 251: the pressures of being two...

It's rough being two!

Day 248: you get the stink eye...

Took Jeff with me to meet the cousins and Daj woke up to find his mother gone and a strange man in his living room... When he finally stopped crying and came out, he just sat there on Arn's lap and looked like that at Jeff for a solid half hour...



He did eventually warm up to him though. :)

Day 245: Ghillie

Almost every day, on our way home from work, we see this man, cheerfully knocking on windows and asking for money. Brandon has nicknamed him Ghillie because he looks like he's wearing a Ghillie suit that snipers wear. Brandon can't help but give the guy a dollar and a fist bump every chance he gets because he's always sooo cheerful. It's crazy how happy he can be, standing out in the heat all day and waiting for anyone to show some kindness...reminds me that you can choose your disposition no matter the circumstance. I need to remember that!

Day 243: I hate the file room

The worst part about paperpushing happens when someone calls me to ask for a revision JUST after I've already closed it and it's gone on to where files go to die: the file room. So then I gotta go through everything again to find just the one teeny file in stacks of many just to make a revision. Sigh.





Just my luck that the one I needed was the very last one on the bottom. :(

I need a vacation.
