  • What are you doing right now (besides being on TN)? Keeping up with the trickle of e-mails at work and figuring out what dessert bars I'm baking for my grandpa's birthday party. Decided on Lemon Bars (he loves them) and Salted Caramel Butter Bars.

  • So let's answer some random questions!

    What are you doing right now (besides being on TN)? I'm watching the Pirates baseball game on TV hoping they can break this tie and win! I also just got done printing some things for my bulletin boards at school. I wrote down a bunch of things I want to do/need to do in the first few days of school too.

    What do you wish you were doing? Sleeping

    What is one good thing that happened this week? I applied to be a member of the planning team at our school...it pays a stipend. I'm hoping I get it even though it will be a lot of extra work and responsibility.

    What is one bad thing that happened this week? Hmm, let's see...our deck got sprayed by a skunk and our house smelled horrible all week....a transformer blew about a block over from our house and we were without power for a few hours last night.

    Did you ever have an imaginary friend? Not really...I did have an imaginary boyfriend in high school but it was just a joke, not for serious.

    What is your favorite summer activity? Campfires!

    What is your favorite fall activity? Just being outside and enjoying the cool weather

    I know, right! Nowhere I've ever worked would have given me severance at all, so I'm grateful for that (and the tons of time to look without feeling pressured!).
