becca, THANK YOU for your uplifting posts! I read your post and felt happy, but was annoyed as I looked outside at the fog. Now the fog is clearing and I can see some blue sky!

Yeah, I have a lot of schoolwork to do today and tomorrow. Melody really wanted me to go to her quiz meet today but I just can't do it.

But! I'm proud of myself because for the first time in weeks, the laundry is totally caught up! My goal is to only have to do laundry Monday-Wednesday-Friday. So it makes me happy to think I don't have to run a load of laundry till Monday, and even then I won't have much because I washed our sheets yesterday!

I'm also all done with the dishes as of this morning, but of course dishes are a daily thing. However, tonight we're going out with Angela and Paul and the parents to celebrate Paul's birthday, and that means I won't have to make dinner! I can't see any possible way I'll have to run another load of dishes today unless I bake something, which is not going to happen with all this schoolwork!!!

Okay I am totally procrastinating. For my Bluest Eye essay I have done the following:

• Picked the section I want to write about
• Come up with a thesis statement

I've got my tea, I ate my breakfast, took my medicine. Oh, and I know this is totally TMI but this next week is my week off the pill, and I just realized this last week I didn't PMS at all! In fact, this last week was way better than weeks prior. You may notice that when I don't post at all, that means I don't trust myself to say anything good. Feeling great this morning though. Sleepy and longing for a true Saturday.

I adore you becca. I love your personality and how it shines through the posts. Keep encouraging us and don't stop posting!
