saturday lovely recap...

it's been quite a while since my last blog largely due to the very sad sad relocation of my unknown backside neighbor a.k.a my personal internet wireless provider. i know, bad me. so now i'm stuck with having to find a lovely provider all my own and i'm avoiding it because i've become spoiled and i'm too busy. the latter is partially a big fat lie but i've convinced myself for the moment. with almost a month of no full access to the internet...and work access doesn't count because i can't log on to anything interesting except my dear etsy.com... i've completely amazed myself that i haven't had any internet withdrawal symptoms or some kind of breakdown. but i've done it and i'm okay. i can survive with no internet. but now i've become addicted to bravo. my tv time is 50% bravo, 30% hbo, and 20%cnn. i love it. great shows. anyway, enough net and tv talk. on to life. school is crazy. kids are great. but a lot of work getting all the kids caught up to where they need to be. but how can i do anything else? really. the schoolbags i made in the summer are really holding up well and the kids love them. so work is work and i'm chugging along well enough. last weekend, tony and i went to a friend's wedding. the music was so so lovely. ah, what a fun night. as for me, i had too much wine. somehow i didn't realize it until i got back home. well, there wasn't a dj. they hooked up their computer to the speakers and we danced away. i think it was the most dancing i've done at a wedding. the lovebirds also had a friend of theirs play an acoustic set and he sang coldplay, smashing pumpkins, beatles... great playlist. such fun. well there's a recap. until next time and until i get my hands on a computer with full net access...

love and a hint of insanity...

love and a hint of insanity best describes this past week. insanity because school is keeping me crazy busy. there is not enough time in a day to accomplish the tasks that need to get done. love. love because tony and i went to his cousin's wedding and it was so much fun and there was so much love. the wedding service lasted well over an hour. about an hour and a half. i hope to never forget the fruit joke. the reception was a blast. good barbecue, delicious cake..tony's aunt makes the best! maid of honor and best man walked around with dollar shots, the mariachis with a female member, that's a plus... the sangria, lots of dancing, lots of cumbias, lots of crazy loud relatives having a ball. the groom was lifted up and carried by his friends around the dance floor mosh pit style, the beautiful bride looked happy and relieved. we stayed until the very end. so much fun.
