Observations....

Well, wee one had a good dental appointment. No cavities! She got two stickers and a toothbrush. One of the stickers was of the solar system, which she said she would use on her report about the planets. Only she would coordinate her stickers with her schoolwork. While I was waiting for her, there was a lady with a little boy and a baby. She got 3 phone calls in a half hour, and talked like no one was around. I couldn't do that because #1, it's rude and #2, I don't want everyone knowing my business. I was too far away to hear exactly what her conversation was, but she was british, so the accent was cool. Also while we were there, one of the huge fish in the tanks died. It went from swimming slowly, to lying down, to heaven. Poor thing.

While sitting there, I read two People magazines from front to back. Let me just say one thing....I do not care, nor do I want to know what the cast of Friends is going to do now that the show is over. I am not interested and frankly, am getting sick of hearing about it. I don't want to see them crying on Oprah, The Today Show, or any other program. I don't even want to see the last episode. I have ceased caring what happens to the whiny Ross and oh-so-boring Rachel. And please, will someone tell me exactly why Jennifer Aniston is considered "sexy"?

I stayed dressed in my "going out" clothes all day. I usually wear my "homemaker's uniform" when I have no where to go, (capri jeans, tank top and zip-up jacket), but since we had an appointment, I wore a nicer outfit. It was nice being dressed up for a while. Sometimes I forget that I'm still a woman who likes to look good, and not just a mom wearing "sensible" clothing. I also wore my favorite shoes which are black with ankle straps. I have become somewhat of a shoe hound lately. I wonder why that is?

I have learned that my new camera takes video as well. I can do a 30 second to 3 minute mini-movie and audio. Now I justneed to figure out how to post that. I know there is a way, I read it in someone's journal. I haven't used my aol by phone in a while. It's funny how the jounals go through phases....pictures, voices, lists....I wonder if the videos will be next? I also wonder how long people will keep their journals up and running. Is it a phase that will peter out and everyone will lose touch? Or have we made friendships that will endure? I think it's amazing how so many of us have become such good friends, and a part of one another's lives. It's great.

Well, enough of my rambling for tonight. I'm tired and thinking about going to bed. I love my bedroom. It's my little corner of the world. I have never had a bedroom that I have loved like this one. The colors are so soothing and inviting. And I love sitting on the loveseat in there, reading or watching tv. Anyone else feel that way about their bedrooms....or any other corner of the house? My other spot is my swing in the backyard. There's nothing like swining and relaxing on a warm summer day....
