Poem

Okay, so I have no idea who wrote this poem, but I love it!

One bright day in the middle of the night,
Two dead boys got up to fight.
Back-to-back they faced each other,
Drew their swords, and shot each other.
A deaf policeman heard the noise,
Came and killed those two dead boys.
If you don't believe this lie is true,
Ask the blind man, because he saw it too.

Man, time flies!

I can't believe that it's already November! I haven't posted since the end of August, and I feel really bad about it. Time has been going too fast and I've been so busy! I'm not quite done being busy, but I will try to post more. Of course, I've said that before, so you probably don't believe me. I just wanted to do a post to mark the 10th anniversary of when me and my husband started dating. November 8th, 1999 we finally decided to go for it! It's been a long ten years, with a lot of ups and downs (currently in a down!), but I still love him and, as far as I know, he still loves me.

Here's to another ten years ahead of us!

Too Little Time

So, as the name of my blog implies, I've got too little time. I haven't posted in a very long time and I feel bad. I'm taking online classes in addition to classes at my local community college in addition to having two little girls and a husband. I'm tired. Anyway, my online classes are over for a month and I'm looking forward to having a little time. I'm still taking Organic Chemistry, Pilates, Yoga, and French though, so forgive me if I disappear. I will be trying my darndest to post more often.
I did want to say that my favorite book just came out in paperback!

The Gargoyle

The Gargoyle

This was a beautiful story that I've raved about before and I highly recommend it. There is some foul language, so this is my disclaimer!

Alice in Wonderland

There is very little in this world that I've ever been more excited for than this! It's my favorite book of all time, so to make a Tim Burton movie out of it is complete genius! I love Tim Burton!



Thank you GreenBeanTeenQueen for posting this!

Trust

So I'm having a couple issues currently regarding trust. When a trust is broken, how do you fix it? Where do you draw the line? When has it gone too far and is unrepairable? I've never dealt with these things before and am having a hell of a time figuring out what to do. When there are kids involved everything possible should be done before deciding that a problem cannot be solved, but how? What am I supposed to do to get back to a relatively stable trust? It will never be the same again, but how do I get to an acceptable place?

Sorry for being so cryptic, but I don't really want to go into detail. If anyone wants to be my counselor and find out the details, e-mail me.

The Treasure Map of Boys

This is my post of the description for The Treasure Map of Boys: Noel, Jackson, Finn, Hutch--and me, Ruby Oliver, it was obtained from Goodreads.com
The Treasure Map of Boys: Noel, Jackson, Finn, Hutch--and me, Ruby Oliver (Ruby Oliver, Book 3)
Ruby is back at Tate Prep, and it's her thirty-seventh week in the state of Noboyfriend. Her panic attacks are bad, her love life is even worse, and what's more: Noel is writing her notes, Jackson is giving her frogs, Gideon is helping her cook, and Finn is making her brownies. Rumors are flying, and Ruby's already-sucky reputation is heading downhill. Not only that, she's also: running a bake sale, learning the secrets of heavymetal therapy, encountering some seriously smelly feet, defending the rights of pygmy goats, and bodyguarding Noel from unwanted advances. In this companion novel to The Boyfriend List and The Boy Book, Ruby struggles to secure some sort of mental health, to understand what constitutes a real friendship, and to find true love--if such a thing exists.

I'll definitely write more after I read it!
