The groundhog didn’t see his shadow this past weekend. This is good news to me, though I still wonder why our country seems so dependent on a rodent to forecast the weather… I understand folks on the East Coast are really hoping he’s correct. I think they found Nemo, or Nemo found them.
Stuff I did this week, besides taking on a long term sub job:
Monday This is Your Body on Stress: Insane in the Brain My body lashes out and tries to kill me.
Tuesday My Life of Crime: Subliminal Criminal Instead of getting to jump right into work like I wanted to I had to wait-my background check revealed I might be a criminal. Too bad I didn’t know this, I could have been shoplifting this whole time.
Wednesday Almost Wordless Wednesday: BRAT Some dogs are just not very smart. MY pooch is one of them.
Thursday Theme Thursday: SHOW ME THE CANDY! Valentine’s Day-my kids already know what it’s all about.
I also had my first post featured on The Epistolarians. I’m very excited to be a part of this group of women!
Friday February Secret Subject Swap Take 2: Public Humiliation-I Pee Therefore I Am Because pee happens. Sometimes bad things happen when you pee, and I’m not talking about itching and burning.
And for those of you that were wondering about my criminal past:

I AM NOT A CROOK! As it turns out, there must have been some glitch. The fax came and there was no record found. Too bad the paperwork sat on a desk for almost a week.

Work is going pretty well now that I am exonerated. This blog? Unfortunately it’s losing views due to the fact that I can’t post updates during the day, or something. Please check in on me and keep reading. And you can still vote in the Circle of Moms contest up through 4 pm Wednesday-the last time I looked I was up to #99. I never cared about getting into the Top 25, but I did want to get in the Top 100. Thanks to everyone who has voted for me!
