me myself and i

Note to self: have to keep reminding myself that there is no safety net, no nothing. I might be the safety for my kids and husband but that by no means does it imply any reciprocity...

life changing events often come together. they are never isolated.
they shower you with anxiety and fear and yes hope.
the hope that things cannot get worse, but it's then than they do and things pass.
im still waiting for the storm to blow over, but im ready.
i want to have strong roots this time, be prepared to be blown over.
try try and try is all i can do

lo malo de la nostalgia es q te agarra desprevenida y te apunala por la espalda.

arms lenght

some people you just have to keep at arms lenght. that means no hugging, maybe some air kissing, no matter how much they stalk you and want to be in your life. my parents come to mind, or prople from work, some of my kid's friends' parents for sure. what say you?

this i like today

my weleda products. they are great. for moms and babies. fabulous.

power animal

someone asked me what my power animal is, and i said turtle but secretly its scapegoat.

what am i doing now? baking a crisp with a monkey on my back...

i always use a recipe to help. a guide if you will.

here's my favorite from the barefoot contessa.

i cant wait to have this conversation: remeber when i was totally obssesed with thirtysomething

i really like that show, the characters and what the writers make themm do. i like their of men and women. their portrayal of women is very fair and doesnt box anyone in to more than the necesary stereotypes. they are telling a story after all. yet each episode is self containedind and fit for casual viewing. its the perfect example of working chemistry between everyone working on a project. trust and taking risks. all involved are giving the viewer what they dont even know they want.
did i mentin im really enjoying this show?

and scene...

the things that i do are pretty mundane,

but the things that i experience are pretty extraordinary.

most popular facebook status update ever

"always stand up for what's right and what's fair.
even if its unpopular. if you do so with integrity,
time will always reveal the truth."

in a moment of hardship, i wrote this in deffense of my beliefs, yet the cheesyness and universality of this statement touched my peeps. who knew. will stop being witty and clever now. trite = fb popularity :)

favorite quote about having kids from Lost in Translation

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0335266/quotes?qt0300021

'merricuh, you get what you wish for...

the late night wars in the news for the last couple of weeks only serve to make a case for your collective impatience
just like with HOPE, team COCO proved to be a dissapointment to y'all.
you wanted CHANGE, here's a revelation: it don't happen over(late)nite...
not even in the real amerricuh.
you wanted COCO to shake up in the late night, but you werent ready.
you wanted OBAMA to shake up the status quo, but you werent ready.
you stand in line for hours for everything else,
yet you expected political magic?
shame shame
at least he (Shepard Fairey) got rich out of it. capitalism at its best.
