Same ol', same ol'

Upward and onward with the update:

I am actually feeling okay about the Mom situation. My kid is having a horrible time with it though.

I am starting to get a little motivated. Just a tiny bit. Wouldn't want to overwhelm my finer sensibilities. Oh no. Just get a tiny bit done each day, slowly move forward... I'm hoping to trick myself into building motivation up to a high speed. I'll let you know how it all works out.

I'm going to a great annual party on Saturday, but I don't have ANY IDEA what to wear. I want to be festive, sexy, and warm. Usually in the winter something has to be compromised: sexiness or warmth. I can either be shivering and nipping out or have layers and look about 100 pounds heavier. Quite the conundrum.

Homeschooling is also picking up speed little by little. The huge benefit of it is that her behavior is improving. We will have 'moments' instead of 'days'.

Yule is fast approaching, and the stress level is rising too. Not too bad though. We don't have any idea what to get Little Diva for her Big Gift. I had an idea, but I wasn't able to find it - yet. Her cousin has this great video game. Star Wars video game. Anyway, you actually hold a light saber (don't kill me if I've spelled that wrong), and wave it in front of an eye. I guess the first time he played, he was dripping with sweat. I can handle a video game that also gives you a workout!! Little Diva loved this game, and we thought we would get it for her -- but I haven't found it yet. If anyone knows where I can find it...

I am on MySpace, and I have to say the first time someone sent me a friend request (okay, first couple of times), it weirded me out. I don't mean the people I already know. They were the reason I signed up in the first place. I mean the unknowns. I get a friend request, and my first thought is, "Do I know you? Why do you want to be friends with me?". Then I remember some people sign up to meet new people. I take a breather, go check out their profile, and if they aren't heinous, I'll accept their request. To be totally honest though, I feel like such a poser. Ya know, the people that just try and get their numbers of friends as high as possible. It's not bad really. I only have four that I don't know in some way (and one of them is a band). I do have a fellow blogger as a friend. I thought that was pretty cool. Twisted dude, though. So, of course I like him.
Now that I think about it, I have three bloggy friends on there. Two of them I just counted as straight up friends though. Love you guys!!

I still feel like I don't have time for anything, but I have been clearing out my schedule. There is a friend of mine that I haven't seen in months, and I really miss him. It would take getting the time and motivation to get out of here and drive for an hour. (And ever since my license has been suspended, I try to drive as little as possible.) Which sucks. I really want to go hang out with one of the only friends I have that just lets me be me - no matter what. I went into huge hermit mode last year, and he never even questioned why I wasn't in contact with him. He didn't wonder if he had done something wrong, or anything like that. He just figured it was something I was going through. Friends like that are RARE. Thanks, dollface. You're one in a million. And I'll stop before your confidence level rises anymore than it has... :D

And that's all there is from this peanut gallery.
