Bread, Flowers and Clean Windows

Happy

Sorry about yesterday. That was weird. Photos from my ipod from home...

Hi Gwinna!

Miserable

TOM GAVE ME a little workout that he had sort of done already for me to do today. Seven squat cleans with a thruster, seven pull ups - seven rounds. After my more-than-a-warmup run/jog/walk thing, I went to the gym to get my other work out on.

I did one round of my sevens. I had to put my bar somewhere weird because Jessie had his class in there. Psh.

AND SOMEONE TOOK my bar! UGH. One of those "I regret not being mean" times. Stupid people. There's another bar RIGHT THERE! But I don't want that bar! They should have taken it..

It was almost 12:30 anyway so I just left and gave those guys a dirty look. Tom got out of his class at 12:30 you see and I wanted to walk with him to the car while he walked to the health center for work. Plus I didn't know where the car was... Because we were late buying a parking pass so we had to get a south parking pass instead of our usual north and Tom had parked it today. So I didn't know where it was.

BUT SOMEONE doesn't know how to answer their phone. And so I looked for the car for almost an hour. An hour of walking around in the snow up and down hill with a dripping nose and almost dripping eyes.

Then Tom finally called me back.

I'm over the bar thing, they probably needed it more than me, right? Whatever. I took my anger out on my husband who needs to learn how to use his phone.  ;)


Also I just realized today that I could be taking 11 credits this semester and then finish in the Fall with 9. Yes, I could just have one semester left after this one. One more. One.
The way I had it set up before I decided to do something else made it so I couldn't really take all of my winter classes this winter. AND NOW.. I can. I could have. On Monday. But now the add/drop period is over. And I'm unhappy.

Very unhappy.












These are happy though...

Ready to Ship Out

-18

Well, the weather outside is frightful.

 And we have ice inside our apart around the windows. Insulation, I guess.

This morning the power went out for about four hours. Our room was so dark when I woke up. So I didn't want to get up - double time. Usually there is a light shining in our room from outside. But what? No light in our room? Odd.

And then I realized... Since it doesn't seem to be just our light post that has stopped working, the power must be out! Yay! So I got up to blow my nose and no light. Yes! I lit candles and stood up flashlights so I could put my eyebrows on for a class that probably wasn't going to happen.

We drove up to campus even though campus security was calling Tom's phone probably saying classes were cancelled. This was a city-wide power outage. And classes didn't start up again until 11:30. My last class ends at 11:15.

So I got to stay home and wash the dishes, read about math, finish making my honeycomb, do some laundry, do some math, work out a little, read, eat... you know, the usual stuff.

I got nine emails from the school saying that the power is out (or is back on) and classes will resume at 11:30 (or 10:15) and if you're cold come to the I-Center. I also got an email from my Complex Analysis teacher that started, "As you recover from the sadness of class cancellation, I thought you might want an update." She is a funny one.


Here is the honeycomb I made! Thanks for the candy thermometer. :)

 Flat, but still a little airy. It is goooood.

Light bulb! I should pour it into my round cake pan next time. Then they will be thicker pieces. Even though the flatness of these make them easy to eat..

I need a new calendar.

Happy New Year!

I had a great Christmas and New Year break! Thank you. :) I haven't relaxed like that in a while and it felt good. I love my family so much, it's a little depressing coming back to a quiet little apartment with no Stanley. Not to mention the weather! Oh California Sun. :)

I only took a few pictures while home..

 The few and the proud...

I didn't get a picture of all of our owls together puffed up but here's a good one.. Yours are just flat.

                    Mom                               Hannah                              Me                           Sophia

 Sophia's eyes and Hannah's eyes... I didn't get a picture of Mom's but they said Mom Dahlin...

Hannah's owl was the last one I made... I had to have fun with it...

And we're back to school.

My homework area with my Calculus book and The Wise Man's Fear. Looks like the best book won.
