My Blog

We all know I have a great blog because I've got all the makings for a great blog:

Cute background? Check.
Link to the best preschool in Utah? Check.
Colored text? Check.
Amusing anecdotes? Check
List of other people's blogs? Check.
Abundant sarcasm? Check.
No ads? Check.
Links to blogs about food? Check.
Witty writing? Check.

So lookin' around here you'd think, "gee, she's got everything!" But for quite some time I have felt like it is missing something.....something I couldn't quite put my finger on. Until now. I need to en-cute-ify my blog...and there is really only one way to do that. That is why I have created the following ad:

Blogger Seeking:
2 or 3 adorable children whose pictures I can use on my blog and basically pretend to own.

Requirements:
cute (preferably with blond or red hair, blue eyes, and freckles)
ages 4 and under (gotta keep it realistic)
preferably 2 girls and a boy or 3 girls
twins are a plus
a bunch of pictures of them at various locations and times...so that I don't have to do that stuff
the "rights" to "name" them whatever I want and create entire lives for them that have little or nothing to do with their real lives.

Pay: I'm a teacher so.....there really won't be any pay.

If you're interested give me a call and I will set up a time for your kids to come take the test photos and IQ test.

Summer Livin'

With two weeks of no school under my belt I am now fully entrenched in my summer vacation! It is definitely good times but so different from my regular life. These days.....

I get to sleep in instead of groaning at the alarm at the unholy hour of 8:00 am

No one asks to sit on my lap

I can go for a walk or bike ride on the river trail whenever I feel like it (although now it is really getting too hot to spend any prolonged period of time away from air conditioning)

I am finding it difficult to remember what day of the week it is

I am doing a lot less sweeping

I am eating actual food for breakfast instead of chugging a couple diet cokes before 9:00 am

I find myself not saying my "favorite" phrases..."Did you flush?" and "Did you wash your hands?" (I feel fairly confident that I can trust Tera)

I have found that TV during the day is mostly pretty boring

I don't have built-in snack times to eat my string cheese

And probably my two favorite things about summer vacation...
I don't have to wipe anyone else's bum!
I am free to spend hours on end in my pajamas!
