I am SO excited to make the challenge this week. I missed last week due to family I really only see once a year. The best days with family is when they get here and whey they leave. Love my kid and my brother, but single relatives who don't have children have a hard time when they are trapped in a house with a sullen teen, an over-sensitive 10 year old and a 7 year old high functioning autistic kid. It would be hilarious if I could just watch from the outside. My brother was horrified that I used my barely or half drunk water to my Keurig. He almost lost it. But, hey! I'm the only one who uses it besides my sister and I don't leave backwash! I'm SO OCD that I practically pour bottled beverages into my mouth from a DISTANCE to keep from getting even my OWN backwash in it. Besides...I'm clean! I brush my teeth and bathe...most evey day...but we're siblings! We shared the same amniotic fluid!! Oh well...family. Wait a minute...that has NOTHING to do with TT. Sorry. Anyway, here's my girl and a special stamp I had made but NOT with my mother in mind when I did. Heh heh

Sandy-for the record-MY family was the other people's families...trust. I just grabbed my 7-year-old high-functioning autistic kid, who was running around in his underwear with his ipad screaming Katy Perry lyrics. I don't know whether I'm more bothered by his clothing or music choices. I can't tell you how thrilling it is to hear your kid say 'Is it a hickey or a bruise? But it grew...DAY-UM Last friday night we were drinking in the club"...etc. ;)

Angie and Bev...it means the WORLD to me that you like it!! I'm in this room 4-8 hours any given day, everyday. My biggest problem is how SLOW I am! Does it get faster? If so, what can I do to make that happen??? xoxo
