Teaching the just-turned-four year old little girl I babysit for how to write and spell her name....in less than an hour! (and she still rememers it three hours later!) She is so smart!

Going out to clear 8+ inches of snow that fell over night and finding that my neighbor's daughter did the front walk and the apron of my drive way for me!!!  I still had to do the whole long drive way up to the garage and the area by the front door, but what a very pleasant surprise to not have to do the whole job!!!

I have such wonderful neighbors!!!  (on the one side at least  :-\\\\  )

Recieving two completely unexpected Christmas cards in the mail this morning. Made my day!  :D :D

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.

SCORE!!!!!
I just called Virgin to see what kind of plane I'm on.... I GOT A BED... BOTH WAYS!!! WOO HOOOO!  My god, I may actually be able to stretch me legs AND sleep, on a plane?!?!?  It's unheard of in my world.
 ;D
Very excited, and plan to enjoy it while I can (lest you think I usually travel like this... NOT)

Hollywood, CA -> London, UK 2004
London, UK -> Long Beach, CA 2007

Best 3 1/2 years of my life!

Big time score!!! Great news!  I would be OTT if I got that news!  :D   

I have booked us a flight for a trip back to the states and I keep going on every day looking at the seating in the hope we are upgraded, nothing yet and I know its a pipe dream. (It happened going over last time but not coming back).  Coach seats are not fun.  :-\\\\

I am sure you will enjoy your trip now!!

No kidding.  Try being over 6 ft.
Knees to chest for 10 hours.... not a good time.

(hope I get in on the massage on board, of course!  But I do know that's by chance during the flight)
