Looong day!
Class went well. Learning some interesting tips/hints for ways to advertise a web page. Moira was up when I got home.. nice surprise. I got to tuck her into bed tonight. Gosh - I just love that. Both girls are so good about going to bed ::knocking wood:: I have to sing "You are my Sunshine" to Olivia whenever I tuck her in, whether it's nap time or bed time. Moira likes to cuddle for a few moments before lights out. Some days, they drive me insane.. but bed time is precious.. and so are my babies.
Hopefully, we will get to the library in the morning. I want to start a weekly routine of visiting the library, even if it's only for half an hour. Tim, my brother, will be down tomorrow. He hasn't been able to spend time with the girls in a while. They are so excited that Uncle "Timmy" will be coming over.
Hope you all have a great weekend! See you soon!
At least Moira has a playdate after school today. I get to pick her up at the bus stop and chauffer her butt to her buddy's house. Paul will pick her up at 530pm and attempt to feed them dinner ::snicker:: Good thing it's hot dogs and tater tots tonight. Hell - maybe Paul can make it movie night too. That's when we let the kids watch a movie AND eat dinner. I always swore I wouldn't do things like that. "When *I* am a parent, yadda yadda yadda..." Guess things have changed a bit. As for television, the kids can only watch certain things. No Nickelodeon, with the exception of Nick Jr, PBS, PBS Kids, some Animal Planet, TLC, Discovery and History Channels) Moira really wanted to watch the Mummy special on TLC (I think TLC) but the scientists were making a REAL mummy out of someone's dead body. I didn't want to explain that - at least, not yet. I know of so many people who have tv's in every room, their kid has her/his own TV/DVD/VHS combo in her/his room. Sorry - not in this house. Hell - Paul and I just got a 2nd TV in July and it had belonged to my Nana (who passed away last May). I guess Paul and I must be old-fashioned in our way of thinking. We sit with the kids and watch what they watch. Ok - well, sometimes we doze through it but one can only see The Veggie Tales "Silliest Songs Ever" so many times!
Friday Five
1. What is your favorite time of year? Definitely spring followed by autumn, summer and winter.

Which Rocky character are you? I love this movie although I have yet to see it in a theater - I guess I am too chicken. I don't want to get stuff thrown at me!
