will make a list here.

*today is my mom's birthday- love her.

*is today "N" day for Rob at preschool?

* get cash to meet katie at yet another book fair at school.

*remember to ask kristen to leave michael's stroller so he is not running all over katie's school at book fair.

*take a picture of one completed sleeping bag to post so Dodi and Michele can see how stinkin' cute they are.

*write Rob's thank you notes for his party.

* clean every floor in the house.

* go to YUm Yum's to get birthday treat for Mom- do not eat yum yum's. my loss of twenty one pounds must be protected.

*dave has gotten the bug that robby had. pray he feels better- pray that i do not get it- do not have time to be sick.

* remember to get gift a gymboree for mom- EDITOR'S NOTE: double check content at 3:30 am

* get a "schedule" in head for katie's b-day party at house this saturday- or why did i not book the "build-A - Bear" at the mall.

* remember to ask dave if he needs me to paint the board for the science fair today or when- maybe i should email him.

* Inspired is in 3 weeks. need tape for my atg gun and a uhu stick- do they sell these at AC moore or michael's?

* in an effort to never post without a picture- i find that boring- i uploaded the pic of the gum erasers above i have had saved on my computer for a bit- found this image on the computer a few nights ago when i was decompressing at the computer. HOW I LOVED these as a child. I can just smell them now. when i was in elementary school i used to EAT the eraser shavings- i would rub the eraser on my desk and then pick up the bits with my finger and chew. this clearly signifies a big PROBLEM. i also used to save a huge pile of shavings in the corner of the pencil tray in my desk JUST FOR FUN. my mom came in for a parent/teacher conference in fourth grade and was very upset by my pile- i am assuming she wondered how i had time to make such pile if i was paying attention in class.

i had not remembered a bit of these memories until i saw this picture on the internet and immediately knew i had to post the story- i hadn't yet for time issues and also because i was mulling over in my head if I should admit to eating erasers as a child. but now at 3:45 in the morning, it seems perfectly reasonable- RIGHT?

someone get me some gun erasers, please, to reaquaint me with a smell from my childhood.

alright- i feel much better now. i think.

off to go to bed for a little bit. my little monkey, Michael is coming at 5:45 Am 'cause Krissy is working.
