I'm Tweeting now. You can find me at @Whatthemamasaw on Twitter. I also have a Facebook feed if you actually want to follow that, too. If you're doing that, you must really like me....

Naomi built a castle all by herself this morning. I took a picture because I thought it was the coolest one she'd built, and I saw that she'd done some things with her blocks that I hadn't seen her do before.



My mother's comment on the photo was "There's mischief in the younger one's eyes."

I really wish I had a better camera that posted to the internet as easily as my phone does. I do love the way I can upload to Twitter and Facebook right from the phone.

Getting ready for Naomi's birthday. Must sort out details of party soon.

Envious of my sister in law at the moment. She's started going back to school taking courses required to sit for the IBCLC exam. While I don't think that's the path I want to take I'm envious that she knows what she wants to do and is making it happen. I'm actually not even sure what I want to do beyond motherhood.

Still trying to sort out school for Naomi next year. I don't know what to do for her. I keep forgetting to call a couple of places, because I typically make calls in the afternoon while the kids are sleeping, and at least one needs to be called in the morning. Also need to figure out swimming lessons for the kids too.

Very tired lately. Waiting to see if new dose of thyroid medication is going to help resolve this-I think it's helping, although I've stayed up too late a few nights recently and that's not good.

Quite worried about my father lately-he's recovered slowly from the heart surgery, but he's fainted again, and there have been issues of memory/confusion. GP can't find anything, cardio can't find anything, neurology hasn't found anything definitive yet, although he's just had a 24 hour EEG and we'll have to see if that finds anything. I'm not really sure that it's safe for him to be home alone, but there's not really anything I can do.

It's half past six here...time to go do a couple of quick things before supper. And try and figure out what to do with my life.

for your camera look at eye-fi. It is a wi-fi memory card that connects to your system, and can pass through to photo service of your choice. I have 3.

Thanks! I'll check it out. One thing I love about the phone is that I can post to Twitter and Facebook, email my parents and upload to Picasa right from the phone, as well as send it in a message. If that would help me do at least some of those things, it might be an option-I can use the regular camera and get better photos.

I would, but I'm apparently a failure at Facebook, since I can't find you there.

As far as the Facebooks is concerned, I am called 'Huey Callison'. If you find me, I promise to find you back.

You know, for some reason I'd decided that you didn't like me anymore. Maybe because we haven't talked in ages and ages. I'll send you a friend request on Facebook in a moment.

Now that you mention it, I suppose I haven't seen you in, er, a child or two.

It's a personal failing of mine. I tend to think that things will stay exactly where I leave them, and then I come back, and they're gone.

[geminigirl]

You've got a point. I haven't seen you since before Naomi was born, and she's about to turn three.

Things are different for both of us, I'm sure, but probably not too far from where we left off. I still think fondly of the way you called me "tiny superhero" and I kind of miss it.

I don't know when I'll next be in your part of the world, but I'll keep you posted, and maybe we can get together. If not, I still IM, you obviously know where I am on LJ, and Facebook.

Hey, once you've figured out what you want to do with your life, want to work on figuring on mine? :)

Occupational or forensic psychology with a minor in womens studies.

How's that for an answer for what you should do with your life.

[icelore.livejournal.com]

That sounds great actually, thanks. XD

[geminigirl]

For real?

Me neither, anymore.

I hope they figure out what's up with your dad.

Nice to hear from you. I miss seeing you on #soc.bi.

Very tired lately.

Do you think these two statements could be related? I know that I find it hard to make decisions when tired, and looking after small children burns through most of a person's available braincells even when they're NOT fatigued due to illness.

I hope your father improves soon, or rather, I hope the doctors find that something easily treatable is wrong with him and can get it fixed. It must be worrying for all your family.
