Hahahha! Okay, so the 18th is almost over. Can I add the first thing on your to-do listfor next week? I have been looking for cilantro ever since I had your partydip a few years ago! Finally found it today and your dip was the first thing I thought of! Yep, that's what I get for shopping at rinkydink country grocery stores!
Anyway, would you mind posting it on your blog? It was totally yumsville and I bet I'm not the only one who would love it for the holidays.

Next question- you are pretty adept at blogging, Jen. Any idea why my sidebar would have shifted clear to the botom? I looked through the html and shortened everything I could find, but nada. Grrrrr.

Anyway, thanks for the recipe, Hon, if you get the time to post it!

Bless you!!! I don't know what I'd do if I had a schedule like that. Whew! Or does the "hang on to your hats..." mean there’s more to come?

Your list makes me tired. I think I need a nap now. You really are superwoman.

And P.S.....I am relieved to know that I'm not the only person that runs through the house doing the home organization and improvement projects before the arrival of houseguests! One hour before my guests arrived for T-day dinner, I was touching up the paint in the dining room and kitchen, hanging up some new art, and dusting the top of the fridge (YUCK)which I would NOT have done if I didn't have company coming over.

Too Close For Comfort

Depressing: Def., "Realizing that you and your Dearly Beloved are entirely to close to wearing the same pant size. Case in point - Hero Guy came ' har har-ing' out of the bedroom relating that he had accidentally been wearing a pair of my jeans for the last 15 minutes. He wondered why they felt so weird (translated - TIGHT) until he took them off and inspected the tag. He gloated that at least he knows he can fit into a Ladies Size ___ (you really think I'm going to tell you the number?!). My Observations: 1) He had a MONSTER wedgie, so the jeans were entirely too small for him. 2) They are my "fat" jeans, a size bigger than what I actually wear, but I just like the broken-in feeling of them. Or the roominess or something. 3) They were the stretchy kind of jeans, so an elephant could have painted itself into them. 4) What's he bragging about having a girlish figure for anyway? Not very macho if you ask me. Hmph.

Stickin' It Out

I got married today. Well, not exactly today. It was Friday, June 2. But the year was 1989 - 17 years ago. "Amazing", people say. "Good for you", they comment. "You must have picked the right one", the add. Amazing? Yes. Good for me? I'll admit it. But it has nothing to do with picking the right one, really. It's not because I found the perfect boy, and it's certainly not because he found the perfect girl. It might sound a little unromantic, but there never really is a 'right one' floating around out there waiting in the cosmos for the other 'right one' to crash and connect. There may be 'better ones'; there may be 'more easily compatible' or something or other. But the real story is you start becoming the right one the moment you vow that "you do". When I married, I had been 20 for a whole 33 days, we had just completed a 2-year long-distance realtionship and HE was five years older tha

Mixed Feelings

It's been a long time in coming, but as of this morning, I'm no longer a medical transcriptionist. I'm not sure how I feel about that...a little bit relieved, a little bit sad, a lot bit uncertain about whether I'll regret this decision. For the last year or so, I've found that the transcription work isn't fulfilling the need I once had to stay at home with my babies and have an income. I've increasingly felt that I need more interaction and less monotony. I've also felt the pressure of work that constantly needs to be done, with no sense of ever being really "finished." No matter how much work you've done for the day, there's always another note waiting to be transcribed. That goes for sick days, holidays, vacations days or any kind of days. This year, I've dabbled in substituting as a school monitor and office staff, and kind of found my niche in the last few weeks. I'll be working a couple of hours a day in one of the
