Project 52

Here's where my 2010 Project 52 will be.

Project 52

I don't have what it takes to keep up with a Project 365 where you shoot and post an image each day for a year. Rather than set myself up for inevitable failure, I'm going to do a Project 52, entitled "Through the Looking Glass". I'm going to try and post each week's entry on Sunday but we'll see how it goes.

Winter Wonderland

Last night began the first snowstorm of the season. By 7am we had more than a foot of snow on the ground and Em couldn't wait to look out the window to see. Her grandparents had bought her a beautiful flexible flyer wooden sled for Hanukkah but it was a little too powdery to try it today. I'm hoping tomorrow night we'll go for a ride. Nonetheless we bundled up and braved the cold to clean off the cars and have some fun. Just like her mommy, Em loves to frolic in the snow, throw snow at people and likes some hot cocoa with marshmallows afterward.

Oh Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah

Book Sale

I recently decided to try my hand at something to keep busy in between jobs. I found this company that has GREAT multicultural books that really appealed to me. I think my favorite is about a boy in China since it hits close to home. Right now there is a big sale so head on over and check it out. Just click the button below and it will take you there. 10% of any monies earned will be donated to charities which benefit orphans in China

Not Me Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week. This week I did NOT grab a sweatshirt from the laundry pile to wear for morning because that would be gross and a real lady always makes sure she looks her best. I did NOT add a 9 to the salary figure when the recruiter asked what I was making because only a dishonest person would try and make MORE money when they are unemployed. I better go bow my head in shame. When my daughter woke me up Saturday morning I did NOT ask for 10 more minutes, only to find her naked from the waist down in a pile of urine. What kind of mother would do that to a child? Certainly not an almost four year old who still doesn't think the potty is necessary. GADZOOKS what a week it's been.

Weekend Wanderings

We spent this past weekend at Hershey Park and Amish Country. Em enjoyed Hershey's Holiday event though it was quite cold. She went on some rides, did the chocolate tour and picked out a cow to add to her menagerie of animals. Sunday we went on a historic train and Santa even stopped by with a gift. We enjoyed the seasonal lights, music and most of all, Em enjoyed all the animals she saw.
