Of course any Friday is good, but this one is just a little more special than the others. :)

Today is World Autism Day. Watch Rainman with many tissues.

It's Children's Book Day. More Dr Seuss! Or maybe you could read Roald Dahl books or the Harry Potter series. If I had written that, it would not have been for children. The stupid gum wrappers would have meant something, Neville would have blown the roof of the place in the last book and gotten Luna or maybe Violet and Snape would have been Harry's real father. Muahahahahahahaha!!!

It's National Walk to Work Day. They should have told me yesterday so I could get started. It's a good 20 miles.

It's Reconciliation Day. So are we supposed to kiss and make up with someone, or do they mean like balancing the inventory? Because I gotta do that sometime in the next few days. http://louisaonline.com/images/smilies/smiley-yuck.gif

It's Hosptial Admitting Clerks Day. Um, yeah. They're probably taking the day off while the discharge coordinators are working doubletime. It's a holiday weekend. The hospitals are going to discharge anyone who's breathing on their own and not bleeding or whatever. So we at the home health care agencies can ask WTH this person is doing home and send them back to the ER. Sigh. Traditions.

In food, it's Peanut Butter and Jelly Day and Hot Cross Buns Day.

I leave you today with my neice's favorite joke when she was little.
"What do you get if you pouring boiling water down a rabbit hole?"
"Hot cross bunnies!"

How did your pranks go, Anne? I need a report :)

I figure I had best purchase some Easter dinner fixin's today. Not sure but hot cross buns might be fun, too. Or maybe Peeps S'Mores...

It is funny that it is Reconciliation Day - one of DH's friends called him today to apologize for being a total jerk. They hadn't spoken for about a year or so because of how this guy had acted. Think he knew what day it was?

I yelled April's Fool

YAY, Anne!! How are you doing it?? I need to crack the whip and get on it. So, someone tell me what I can go that doesn't involve shelling money out to go to meeting or tracking everything I eat? I'm hoping, after Easter, I'll be able to start running again. These back to back colds have killed that!

It's looking like the trip to see my cousin's baby has been put off, my step Dad is sick, running a 102 fever so, no new baby goodness for him. It's ok though, I have a telephone interview/audition on Thursday and it'll be easier if I'm at home and not 500 miles away. :)

I hope I can do some April Fool's jokes next year, somehow, I don't think my 2 year old would have 'gotten' them! LOL

Ok, I am off to try getting a kit made... Wish me luck! I have colors and a theme picked, aren't those the hardest part?? Ok, for me, the elements are what kick my butt! LOL

I got on the scale and cried....260 pounds of quivering flesh! a million excuses...hysterectomy, moving, knee probs...yada yada...
I determined to drink 2 litres of water a day...walk 2.5 miles a day...and cut out sugar and large quantities of bread, noodles, and other starches. I can not live like I have...so....my kids are helping..and I am scrapping my journey...that is a help to me for some weird reason...I will put up the next layout tonight...it is almost done...
