Phyllis 18/365

We took one of our Sunday road-trips today, ended up in Lincoln, TX, population 276.  Ate at a local cafe, drove around wide open spaces, and enjoyed the gorgeous day.  I must say, the best part was when Aaron broke out into "Tiiiiiiiiiin roof, rusted." from "Loveshack" after seeing several tin-roofed houses.  Then, ironically, the song came on the radio within an hour afterward.  Good times.

Did my first half marathon today. Sweet victory!

My Life as Measured in Cups of Coffee: Today is a triple refill kind of day. My days can be divided among three or four categories: single, double, triple, or intravenous. I don't drink lattes or mochas; just coffee, and straight up. I don't know how many single days I have anymore (who can drink just one lonely cup?!), but the majority are in the double range. Thesis writing and final exam/paper periods are intravenous days. If the world were suddenly devoid of the wonderful little beans, my world would be a sad, sad place.

I guess I'm feeling nostalgic today.  This is a picture from the golden age at work, just over a year ago.  Only two people in this picture still work with me.  The token male is Kevin, my former boss.  I miss him most.

My sick little guy, eating his breakfast this morning. I can always tell when he is about to get sick just by looking at those big blue eyes of his.

I have spent the last 90 minutes playing on a website that makes pictures like this.  My parents said I should get out more ... I think they might be right.

We had "rainbow" eggs today. (spinach & ham chopped very fine) 

My kids don't like veggies. Guess I won't make them eat them.
They are just happy eating rainbow eggs and no veggies.
BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Clint found his idea of the perfect wedding cake today.  It's hilarious, but mostly unlikely that he'll ever get anything of the sort (in deference to his bossy girlfriend), so I thought I'd share it with you today.

Despite my current profile picture, I actually had really long hair 24 hours ago. Yesterday, I donated 8 inches of hair to Locks of Love. I'm enjoying the swinging feeling of this new haircut as much as the feeling of brightening up someone else's days with new hair as well. Farewell 8 inches! I hope it brings someone else a little bit of joy! (As requested, an additional still photo!)

Z and I took our weekly trip to McD's after school today.  It's a special treat he gets each Friday.  I love this time with him, listening to him talk endlessly about things in his day, all the while munching on "made with white meat" chicken nuggets.  I hope, someday, he will look back on these afternoons with the same gooey feeling that I do.
