Is that a cute couple or what? Eric did a wonderful DVD for me with lots of photos (of me!) and we realized that we have very few of the two of us together. We will take more pictures!

@
I have been guilty of it myself, but what is the deal with the @ sign. I mean really, is it that hard to write "at"? Does it take any less time to make the @ symbol? Long words might need to be shortened, but two letters? Why are we always in such a rush?
This is Diane and I am @ home.
This is Diane and I am at home.
hhhhmmmm

Giving Thanks early
I want to give thanks to my whole family early. I want to say a special thanks for yesterday. I was sick with the stomach flu yesterday and everyone was so helpful. I slept and slept and slept. It was wonderful.
I want to say thanks to Carol (Nana) for watching Diego now after watching Siobhan for two and a half years. (thanks for yesterday too, by the way). And for never saying no when we ask if you can watch one of the youngins.
Mom, thanks for always being there. I swear I see you now more that you moved out of state. odd!
Bradley, thanks for trying to do better in school both in your grades and your behavior. Keep it up. Thanks also for taking your brother for walks, holding him, helping him be happy.
Krystal, thanks for trying harder in school and always willing to play with Siobhan. You are a ray of sunshine in this house (except when you are singing!)
Siobhan, you are a gift. Your smile and laugher makes my whole life seem worthwhile.
Diego, thanks for being the best baby EVER. Always with a smile!
A super special thanks to my wonderful husband Eric. You are everything to me. I can not imagine life without you. You are truely my soul mate. You bring out the best in me. You help me to achieve all that I want in life and give me everything I need. You make each day worth waking up for. You have honestly taught me what it is to love someone for who they are. Our children we love because it is just in us to do so. I love you because of who you are, the wonderful things you bring to this world and our love for each other and all our wonderful babies!

Not like TV
How come everyday can't be like on TV? Where everyone is happy and nothing goes wrong? No one argues or fights. Kids get up in the morning and mom has time for coffee. Nope, real life is NOT like TV.

Classic toddler moment
Last night at Mass Siobhan walked up for her blessing during Communion. She was very upset when we got back to the pew. I asked her what was wrong and she told me, and I quote, "I want a chip too!"
Hee hee, ha ha. It is very hard to explain to a two year old what the Eucharist is, but who would have thought she would think it was a chip. CLASSIC

Fresh flowers anyone?
How busy is the Orange PD? Today we got off the 55 fwy exit at Katella, and usually there is a guy standing there selling flowers. He was there again today but he had company, a police officer. I back the badge, but really. I can guess he does not have a license to sell flowers, but are the cops so bored there is nothing else to do?
What harm could this guy be causing? He isn't even begging. At least he is selling something to make money. Or was trying to anyway, before he got hassled.
There are no bad guys out there? No one running a stop sign? Making a famous California stop? No drunk drivers? No fights? No nothing, that he has to tell the hard working (he is out there until nighttime, until his flowers are gone) guy on the fwy ramp. There is a guy who sells flowers down Katella/Santiago Canyon and I bet no one is bothering him (he is white).
I just would like to say that I think the Orange Police Department could find better use of their time. Something other then bothering a man who is trying to make a buck by doing little other then glancing at drivers as they exit the fwy. God forbid someone might like to take some fresh flowers home.

goings on
Many things going on here. Krystal has been busy at the Discovery Science Center as a teen volunteer. Bradley, of course, is still busy with soccer.
Siobhan moved up with the three year olds in her school. (She won't be three until 1-31-05) and seems to love it. She gets the bigger playground now!
Diego has been a joy. He is sleeping about 9 hours a night, but last night, oh last night, he slept 11! And boy did we need it. He is rocking back and forth on his knees and hands. Trying to hard to sit up when laying flat on his back. Still no sign of those darn teeth (ugh!), but we are still hopeful.
Somehow we made it through this week and then the LA Galaxy to lose on Friday and end this season.
I lost another pound, up to 20 now, although I still am not seeing a difference.
Eric is busy filling every spare minute working. I haven't actually cooked dinner in days (lucky family). I want Indian food.
We haven't heard from Nan in a while. I hope she hasn't forgotten us. We think of her everyday.
My mom came for a short visit, it was great to see her.
Eric's trying to decide if he should go to MacWorld without me and just take Krystal and Bradley. I say "Go!" (If it was reverse, I would be out of here) but I still don't have much time from work seeing as how I have only been back one month.
49 days 'till Christmas.
10 days 'till Bradley turns 14 (yikes)
Nana Carol watchs Little D while we work and she is loving it. Siobhan gets to spend time with her every morning and right after school. She loves that too.

My last election comment

I think this will be it, although I think it says it all. We are in a depression in our house. I don't understand Americans. I don't understand how people can want more of the same. People chosing a President over religious reasons. Aren't we American? Freedom from religion, of which there are many.
There will be a draft to come, you wait and see. And all those people who voted for Bush will watch as their sons and daughters go off to war. That will be a sad day for everyone and something I hope never happens, but I believe it will.
I can't even begin to describe all the fear I have. I hope my job will remain because as a whole the Republicans do not believe in Social Services. I guess they think everyone is as rich as them.
I guess my children will have to continue a private school education not because I want to but because the public schools will get no funding.
I hope the abortion rate does not continue to go up as it has the last four years. Maybe if there was more money for Social Services more women would keep their babies.
Maybe Bush will suddenly start caring about the enviroment. Maybe he will stop drilling for oil everywhere. Maybe he will end this so called "war". Maybe he will fight for those in Sudan. Maybe he will actually care about the middle AND lower class. Maybe, just maybe he will find a heart in the next four years. I hope, but I doubt.
I am sad. yes, I am a liberal, a bit left wing, but no one can say that my feelings don't matter. No one can tell me that I shouldn't be scared for my children, for my family, for myself.
God bless you George W. Bush, because frankly I think you will be seeing very little of him after this life.
