and to round out the week

a few more random thoughts and happenings

• work was so much more bearable this week. a nice relief.
• modern family is the funniest show!
• can't wait for the library to email and say Sons of Anarchy Season 2 is READY for pick up
• i sewed my first napkin last night! hooray.
• i bought a new winter coat after taking a close look at my current coat (which is completely shredded inside). $61 lands end at sears. simple, black. long. warm.
• learned changing from red to black for a coat is a tough transition. initial thought- it feels kinda drab. must work on that.
• add to my to do list: make funky, brightly colored winter accessories to jazz up new coat
• we got more snow! dan woke up the favorite child (the backhoe) from its hibernation and cleared out a little more space for us humans and our vehicles because the snow was closing in.
• today may have been the longest commute i've had in awhile. in both directions, we were all forced off the train at JFK/UMASS. on the way to work i got shoved into a train that had a leaking vent and i was getting dripped on all the way to MGH. on the way home i was so pleased to get a seat only to have someone squeeeze in next me nearly crushing me. not fun. super long. super uncomfortable ride. ahh the joys of the T.
• i am taking riley to gymnastics tomorrow. can't wait to see her new tumbling skills. i haven't seen her "perform" since end of her last program.
• its 9p on friday night and i am wiped. time for bed! bona nit.
