FICA job here i come...

gonna be done with my tech class soon, at the end of this semester. doesn't seem like 2 years have gone by. could have gotten done in a year if i went full time, but with the kids, and still helping my mom with a few of her house cleaning jobs, i could only go in the afternoon. PELL grant full ride. got my A+ and Network+ certs, gonna try for my Server+. i think i can pass it. starting to look at the job websites, and i've got my resume posted a few places. had to change my references... ex-bestfriend was one of my personal ones. that wouldn't be good.

got a cold. had my flu shot... so i won't get that nastiness! going to bed lately with my friend nyquil. works great. what is it that only the right half of my face is stuffed up?

baby blankets to crochet! my teachers wife is due with their 3rd child (another boy) in about 5 weeks. i'm making him a blue blanket in a pretty pattern stitch, it trades off single and double crochet every other row. easy to make, and quick. then a friend of mine in california is having identical twin girls! i'm gonna find some of that pretty multi print yarn in two different colors so they can each have a different one. her mom showed me a picture, and even though she's only 29 weeks in, she's huge!

turkey day is almost upon us. i starve at thanksgiving. i hate turkey! usually they have a ham, so with enough dipping sauce or mustard on it, it's edible. there's usually a salad, and maybe some mashed potatoes... but i won't touch the gravy 'cause they put turkey guts in it! GROSS! they also put hard boiled egg chunks in the stuffing! stuffing should come out of a box that says "stove top" on it. just the way corn bread should come out of a box that says "jiffy" on it. i'm bringing a prailine pumpkin cake this year, found the recipe on the betty crocker site. should be good. i love to bake! still working on the cookbook idea, just haven't had any time to put it together.

husband came home from hunting... didn't even see anything! he wasn't happy. he goes over to inola to hunt with his brother. he's got land along the barge thingy? river? canel? whatever... that thing over there that barges go down to the gulf in. kerr something or other.

the girls are out enjoying the weather, riding their bikes. i can't believe they're gonna be 8 and 10 in february! how did that happen? seems like it was just yesterday and i had a 2 yr old and a newborn...

well, outta here 'til next week. stay tuned...
