preparing

I like when sunlight streams into my apartment. Squirrel likes it too, even after Keatt puts random items on her. Lately, I feel like a squirrel outside gathering nuts and seeds for the winter. I want my home to be warm, well stocked, and I am prepared to sleep through as much of winter as possible. Being a human makes sleeping that much impossible. I find myself trying to make plans now before the rains of the Pacific northwest come. If I reach out and connect with people, maybe I will continue to do so during the dark, dreary months ahead. Or will I let Keatt and Wesley watch Wonder Pets until those are the only songs I know? The rhyming is amazing. It is unbelievable how I have gone through life never rhyming "fact is" with "cactus" or "pupa" with "supa dupa" until now. That’s butterfly pupa for those of you free of toddlers. I do look forward to The View tomorrow. It’s not supposed to rain tomorrow, but my fanny with be parked on the couch. Or maybe I will tape it (yes, VHS!) and savior it later if the kids nap.

Ah, television, how you rule my life when it’s dark and gross out. What I really want, and the plans in my head are many, is to help others. Instead of watching countless hours of TV and telling my kids to share, maybe I will find the motivation to help others get out of debt. My husband and I rang in 2009 credit card debt free. Soon, I will have my student loan paid off. I feel I need to share those with others. So, if you are reading this, stay tuned and enjoy all the sunny days you can!
