1. For the last two ToT posts I’ve been meaning to share an article that Samantha forwarded to me a couple of weeks back. Somehow it never made it out of my brain and onto the blog. Figuring it’s never too late to make good on intentions, I’m sharing it today. It’s from the blog A Little Pregnant and is titled, “Breastfeeding is awesome. There. I’ve encouraged you.” Samantha forwarded it to me with a little note that said something like, “reminds me of you.” I spent far too long carrying around angst and anxiety about the amount of time I did or didn’t, could or couldn’t, nurse my children and the feelings of failure that came with all of that. This healing little blog post might have put the final nail in the coffin where my feelings of past failure now reside. Goodbye Guilt, I don’t miss you.
2. LOVED this Grow Alabama video today. It totally makes me want to finally learn how to use the video capabilities on my 5d Mark II. Anyone know of a good tutorial or starting place?
3. Ephraim is home with me today as he is every Tuesday (and Thursday) while Sarah is in school and he’s not. One of my goals for him this year is to work on his letter and sound knowledge. Sarah knew all of her letters and sounds at this point so I figured I’d work a bit with Ephraim to see what he could do. Well, I’ll tell you what he can do as of this morning – he’s extremely proficient at feeding foam letters to dinosaurs. That’s about it.
4. I just got the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Spouses Survey in the mail. I’m excited about it. And I’m pretty sure that makes me weird. I do wonder though if someone is going to lose their job for asking me how I feel about Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. 😉
5. Last night as my family finished dinner there was a knock at our front door. Imagine my surprise when I saw tonight’s dinner guests standing there. I felt terrible for them, knowing how embarassed they would be when they realized they were at our house on the wrong night. That is until I realized that *I* was the one who had written the date down wrong on my calendar. Annnnd…Best Hostess Ever Award goes tooooooo…ME!!! (They graciously agreed to come back tonight when I promised I’d be more prepared.)
6. Apparently high from my stunning success last night I completely forgot about my children’s dentist appointments this morning. This week just keeps getting better.
7. If I didn’t know better I’d blame my forgetfulness on pregnancy.
8. I’m not pregnant.
9. In better news, the workflow tutorial video is coming right along. Here’s a little sneak peek at the logo…
10. If you haven’t signed up to be notified about updates, scheduling, and specials regarding the workflow video and other mentoring opportunites, drop your email addy into the box in the sidebar. I’m planning to send out my first installment this week.
