No Thanksgiving this Thanksgiving

Neither side of my family will do anything for Thanksgiving tomorrow.
The sisters are not speaking - so not going to the 'rents, at least they haven't said anything which is of no surprise. Oh well. Nobody cares and mom's just going to worry which gets nothing accomplished.

Grandpa Evans

Grandpa Evans died today.

The Truth Project Part 5.1

Well somehow we managed to skip the "Who is God?" DVD part 4 of the series and moved onto Part 5 Section 1 Science. We skipped part 4 b/c it was deemed boring by the leader. But Part 5.1 could have been just as boring. It was how evolution and Darwin are wrong and here is why - in less than 20 min. Not much depth and didn't tell me anything I didn't already read in Michael Denton's book or the book "Doubt about Darwin". Neither of which the guy mentioned. Also, he didn't split it into micro and macro evolution which I find very significant when trying to argue against Darwiners.

I guess I'm not a soccer mom. Everyone at the playground seemed to have the same kind of tennis shoes and the cute little matching sportswear. Me - I'm wearing socks with sandals b/c I hate sitting there to tie my shoe, slacks and a t-shirt. Oh, and I wasn't wearing the oh-so-fashionable bug-eyed sunglasses that are now the rage here and were the rage on the west coast like 10 years ago.

I doubt any of the moms were toting a copy of "Mental Floss" magazine either. LOL. That is the coolest magazine EVER.

Baby EInstein

All this hoop-lah over Baby Einstein and do you know how many parents came to my Parent-Teacher Conferences? Maybe two. At least one I'm sure. The other one I believe was another fellow teacher, so she was already there.
So their kids only matter when they are little, and when they are old enough to actually understand that you care - nobody goes.

Current Book: Charlie Wilson's War by George Crile -- Very interesting and writes smoothly.

Current Project: Working on Maddox's first year video for the birthday party.

Babies Does a Fall Back with the Clocks

Currently Reading: Charlie Wilson's War. I really like the tone, style and subject matter. It is a very long book so I'm not sure I will be able to finish it in two weeks since it is not a quick read either.

Well at Thomasville, my Hercules aka. Maddox found out that a drawer isn't really a drawer. He pulled on some knobs that look like a drawer but was really a keyboard shelf. So, he falls to his bottom and keeps going until he hits his head. Poor thing :-(

Weekend was exhausting. Holding a baby for 90 minutes straight is no fun at all.
Looked for a desk at several places and even the three thousand dollar desks wouldn't get here for 6 weeks. For that price I better have it tomorrow.

Oh, and just received an email that "The Golden Compass" is the new "anti-Narnia".

OPEC knows I'm on Empty

Gas was around $2.60 for the past couple weeks. I finally get near empty and gas is now $2.89 at the pump. They know I'm empty. They tapped into my car's computer to see how much gas I have. Because there IS this movie coming out called "Untraceable" where the IP address of the website is untraceable and the tapped into her car's computer and ran the car for her. Yeah... right...
