You choose your friends wisely and even though they
may be few in number, they are high in
importance.
You feel most comfortable when you can follow the
crowd and let others make decisions. But that's
not to say you can't make up your own mind if
you need to.
Faithful and true, Piglets make the best friends.

This comes as no surprise. I'm a big Piglet fan. :D I empathize with the little guy.

You are bisexual.
What is your sexual orientation?

Once again, no surprise. I already knew this.

Your soul is bound to the Yellow Rose: The
Gentle.
"I've travelled through the land of
surrender and seen it all. I throw my heart
out and keep my head up, and now I travel
through the land of peace."
The Yellow Rose is associated with friendship,
intuition, and fun. It is governed by the
goddess Hestia and its sign is The Intertwined
Rings, or True Friendship.
As a Yellow Rose, you always look out for your
friends. You would much rather have strong
ties with friends than a single tie with a
lover and your devotion to your friends is
clear. You may have great intuition and be
able to read emotions clearly, but sometimes
you can seem distant yourself.

How compatible are you and your friends?
My only issues with this result is that I don't like the colour and also I get very stressed out over the tiniest of things. Other than that, I suppose it fits...
And now, for the actual post.
Have been a busy bee. Will continue to do so for the rest of the week. Spent yesterday talking to a financial advisor about what to do for a college fund for Alex and money for Jeff and myself when we are older... just something that we might need, to put away for a rainy day.
Today I will be taking Alex to get her holiday pictures done. I also have dishes and household chores to do. Tonight I have my book club (yay!!) and will be making some tasty latkes and applesauce to bring with me. Our December meeting always includes tasty holiday food. The librarian who runs it makes wassail and sometimes cookies. The other members bring something they traditionally make. Seeing as I'm the only Jew (well, almost-Jew) I bring something usually associated with Chanukkah, and this year I actually know how to make good latkes. Gotta throw a little culture in now and again. I may get ambitious and make some gingerbread or spice cookies seeing as I sort of straddle the fence when it comes to the holiday season.
Tomorrow I have class. I'll do my first Judaism filter update either tomorrow before class or Thursday morning after class. I'm not entirely sure where to start, but I know what I want to talk about... there's just so much I want to discuss and I'm at a loss as to what needs to be said first. I'll figure it out by tomorrow.
Thursday I have a movie viewing with Susan, Kirk, and connielane (whom I know little about, but am very excited to meet. Susan says they are a lot alike and I adore Susan, so I'm guessing I'll like connielane too.) First time ever to view PotC, so I'm very excited. I've waited ever so long to see this movie, and it'll be even better first viewing since I'll be seeing it with Susan. :) That is, of course, assuming I don't get completely lost. I don't drive downtown Houston often, heck, usually I don't drive it at all if it can be helped. But I really want to be there. So I'll drive it. And I won't get lost (I hope I hope I hope).
Friday is Temple and that's it. The end of the week. We need to spend some time this weekend at Jeff's parent's house because his mother's birthday is Wednesday, especially since we won't be there for her actual birthday, what with my class and Jeff not getting home until 7.
I also have a part-time job as a nanny. A woman a friend of mine works with just came back from materinity leave and was looking for somebody to watch her son while she and her husband were at work. She didn't want to put him in a daycare center and couldn't afford it anyway ($150 for 3-4 days a week, 6 hours tops, it's crazy). Normally I charge $75 a week, however if I'm only going to have him 3 or 4 days and 4 to 6 hours, I wasn't going to charge my full price. So I'm only charging $50. Which is much less than they'd have to pay otherwise. I get paid every Friday (or final day of the week, if I don't have him on Fridays). He's a sweet little boy and absolutely adorable. I'm excited about this.
Alex has been sleeping in a toddler bed for about a month now and I realize I never updated about that momentous event. She learned how to climb out of her crib, like the little monkey she is, by clinging to the bars with her toes while holding the railing with her hands and swinging over. It took a few nights, but she doesn't get out of bed now when it's bedtime. The next hurdle will be potty-training, which I'm going to start after the holiday season is over.
I suppose that's really all I had at the moment. perceval's trip is coming up fast. My Iceland trip now seems not so very far away. I'm so excited! That is one good thing about this time of year. The days fly past in a blur, slow down right before the holidays, and then it's February next time you turn around.
Must do laundry sometime this week... and a trip to WalMart is also needed. Gah. I'll fit it all in somehow.

Your dominant hues are green and blue. You're smart and you know it, and want to use your power to help people and relate to others. Even though you tend to battle with yourself, you solve other people's conflicts well. Your saturation level is lower than average - You don't stress out over things and don't understand people who do. Finishing projects may sometimes be a challenge, but you schedule time as you see fit and the important things all happen in the end, even if not everyone sees your grand master plan. Your outlook on life is dark. You're generally a pessimist and everyone knows it; you're the one the come to when they don't want the sunshine blown around, they just want to straight truth. You can miss good things in life if you make up your mind too early though. |
