Our Friday

Jack pouting
I'm so glad the weekend is here. Jack has been sick the last 2 days, and I haven't been feeling so hot either. This week was hard, I was impatient and angry at the kids a lot. Having John here to help for the next 3 days is just what I need.
One good thing about today was dancing to the new Madonna album that Heidi got me for Christmas. I really love it. We also signed up for Netflix and I had fun going through all the movie titles picking what I want to see. I also enjoyed my favorite day time show "starting over". I'm addicted to that show. Sometimes I just really wish I had a full time life coach living with me to gently encourage me and give me big warm hugs. I also found out that a book I have been eagerly waiting to read is now in on the hold shelf for me at the library. "The year of magical thinking" by Joan Didion. I can't wait to start reading it. Have a fun new years everyone.

It's hard being the mama and you do a GREAT job Heather....this is my virtual life coach hug to you. If you need more, come find me and I will gladly give you one!

I love the new Madonna CD as well but then, I have all of her music and love, love, love her.

Here's to a Happy New Year to you and your family and do something nice just for YOU in the next 3 days.

I'm at work right now which seems to be the only time off from being the mama that I get....but I'll take it!!

Just think of all these comments a personal comments from several different life coaches. I am sure we are not all great at it bt we do all go through the same things. "life" I hope your guys start to feel better, I know my family has been fighting off something too...I guess it's the season. Have a Happy New Year!

Sorry you're under the weather. My last job in the islands was 6 days of work (2 days a week) at the office of a storage facility owned by friends. I'd already quit my real job, but did this last bit of work only because the people who asked me to cover for them were super-nice and those 6 days of work paid for our plane tickets to Sacramento. Here's why I'm telling you all of that. I did VERY little work during those six days. There was a small color TV on the front counter, facing the desk. Mostly the office manager and I sat and watched TV all day. Her favorite show? "Starting Over" She got me hooked on it in that brief time. I haven't let myself go near it since we got Stateside because I fear I'd become hopelessly addicted. :)

Happy New Year to you and your lovely family! We're so close to each other...maybe one of these days we can meet for tea or coffee.
