Our chosen mode of transportation these days!
Hey everyone,
I am finally peeking out of my "no work" malaise. I have had a few jobs lately, so I don't feel like I have to re-think my whole career. When I don't work for a while, I start questioning everything....what I am doing, my career choices, blah, blah, blah. I am constantly plagued with a stream of "bright" and often "not-so-bright" ideas running through my consciousness. The "recently ridiculous" being a mobile that I made for Tifenn's baby in which I hand felted and sculpted a shepperd girl, a wolf in sheep's clothing and a flock of sheep all hanging from a branch corseted in red felt. Tifenn upon receiving the gift suggested that I try to sell these. Mmmmmm...that could be fun! I made lists of where I would sell them, sourced all of my materials, envisioned meditatively constructing these everyday in complete serenity and bliss. Well, it's a good thing that my husband draws me back to reality. Once we tallied the hours spent and what I would hope to get for these...I would be lucky to make $5 per hour. Anyway, for today I am once again a working stylist.
Roh, I am so sorry, but we can't Skype on the 7th. The kids are having a sleep over and Albert and I are actually going to a dance party at the Bubble Lounge. No kids....what will I use as an excuse to come home when I am tired at 11:00? I could do the 6th?
Roh, has it cool down there? We have had so much fun in the snow this year. Sorry Lily, I know you don't even want to hear the word sn..(*)(&(*^*! We just got 4 inches yesterday. Although, I now clearly understand why people have kids when they are young...yesterday after school, we went sledding in a blizzard, rushed home, did homework, cooked dinner, then I was pulling both Louis and Grace up off of the ice at Wollman rink until 8:30 last night. Roh, you can tell Hannah and Sam that they were missed at the "2nd & 3rd grader PS 321 Skating Night". Whew, and I have to do it all over on Thursday with Grace's class.
Lily, relax and just have fun Sat night....remember, he's the lucky one!

I totally LOVE YOU!!! I will absolutely have fun! Miss you so much -- still cold as ass here - but getting used to it. Send a picture of the mobile you made -- I bet it is SOOO beautiful - you are so talented!!
OK, let's try for the 6th. 8pm your time? I don't know what Rachel has planned for that day (it will be Saturday midday for us) but if I have to cancel I will let you know.
The excuse for leaving a party early when you have no kids at home is that you have no kids at home - does it need spelling out? Mind you, Albert isn't looking that great in your photo so maybe you will just have to stay late.
Quite cool today - only 90 degrees. No rain so far this year.
Uh, ok then, not the 6th. Can we nail down a date then? 13th?, 14th?
