Being called "Miss" several times today, which normally would bug a bit, but I decided it was so much nicer than the alternative.. the dreaded "Ma'am"!  ;D

Ooh, I HATE ma'am!  I actually had a little boy call me 'madam' the other day, though, and I did get a bit of a kick out of that.  Still made my feel ooold!!!!

My UP - discovered a cold diet Irn Bru in the fridge...I'd forgotten I had it!
When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.

Finding my wedding dress....for $20.00!!! I love it, but it has make up all over the inside.  (which I can easily get cleaned, and no one is going to see anyways) and it has two small rips, but they are on the seams so it wont be any bother fixing them.

It's exactly what I thought I might want. It's white and kind of laces up the back and has a few sparkles on it.

Having the house to myself again after not having any room for a week due to Americans!  I loved having them all here for the wedding, and I really miss my friends, but having them all over the house was a bit much!  And next time, they'll come in turns.   :)

Going into check on DS last night and finding him sleeping cuddled up with his baby blanket and favourite stuffed toys.  Who says kids are growing up too fast?  It is so sweet to see that my big boy is still my wee boy sometimes. Sighhhhhh :)

The most fantabulous thunderstorm at 4:30 this morning.  It reminded me of home so much!

Stumbling across some long forgotten photographs.  Two of my favourites, taken at the Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork, Utah...

Friary park is our favorite park : sitting out at the cafe and having a nice burger there whilst people watching with Phil , Jess and Vince.

But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

Having a few people tell me last night how nice I looked and one even commenting on me being "skinny minnie" LOL that was an ego boost I really needed right now  ;D

They actually sell them at the temple.  We've picked up some lovely stuff there.

Now I have a whole month of freedom before I have to do it all over again.  [smiley=dizzy2.gif]
