mac has a friend over. all he does with this kid is play the ds. The kid is nice enough, but is a bit hard to deal with. I think he might have aspergers. He will walk away from you when you are talking to him and won't make eye contact very often, he started inventorying things in our car when he got in, and he has asked things like "how did Mac get so tan?" "Is his dad tan?" I said that is just the way his skin is. Mac said he didn't have a dad. He didn't drop it, he asked "what happened to your dad?" Nothing is bad about him, but you just kinda never know what is going on.

A friend gave us a rum cake. It is yummy!

I should probably do minor housekeeping more than just when someone`s coming over, huh?

This is the story of my life. The frantic cleaning. The sudden realization that many things need to be fixed. The shoving things randomly under the be and into the attic, knowing that you'll never see those things again. The exhaustion. The vows to keep up with cleaning. The writing down of plans and lists. The backsliding. The despair....The frantic cleaning.

Do you all need a chore chart? I made one for mac and me, it actually helps.

I could use a copy - going back to work full time needs some organization

Things we do everyday: dirty clothes into hamper, wash dishes or put in dishwasher, make beds

Monday: clean off kitchen table and counter, take bedroom things from living rooms to bedrooms

Tuesday: Trash and recycling out, swiffer the kitchen

Wednesday: Master bath, vacuum living room

Thursday: Other bath, vacuum hall and bedrooms

Friday: catch up

Saturday: Laundry

Over the knee boots-back in style, or still fuck-me?

ita, - yes.

I would have them now if I had found some that fit. of course, I like the pirate look

thanks msbelle, that gives me a way to think about organize

"Do you know an American woman who hasn't seen 'Pretty Woman'?"

Why yes, Mr. Stuart Weitzman. That would be me, thanks.

I see them around the city a lot. I don't think they really work, though.
