Spewage of Sorts
Jan. 17th, 2012 08:45 pmI really suck at posting and replying lately. I read entries, then get distracted by other things. I open the post box and then get distracted by other things.
I get distracted a LOT lately.
My sleep schedule is starting to get really messed up (is still messed up? I don't know how to classify it since I've always had insomnia problems) so I'm going to be trying to limit internet shenanigans for a while. My goal is to do about 20-60 minutes of internet a day, which might still seem like a lot but we don't have any cable/tv so I have to go at least an hour just to watch an episode of something online ;_;
The 100th Anniversary kickoff went well. Got some adorable pics of the kids (that I don't think I can post so I guess you'll have to take my word for it). I'm hoping to have my camera on hand for the field trips and events for the rest of the semester so that'll be great for a scrapbook for parents at the end of the year I hope.
But here's a little article/picture about the celebration! My kiddos aren't in that picture--we didn't walk back with the parade because it went right through their lunchtime (and 3 miles is hard enough for little legs when you're not starving too) but oh well, it was a fun time at the ceremony at least.
ASL classes start tomorrow night, so I'm pretty excited about that, as well as pretty nervous. I guess we'll see how it goes. Wish me luck?
In other new, I've been doing a lot of bento. A LOT of bento.
( cut for cut food <3 )
I've been in crazy food art moods lately. I literally got halfway through recreating the Mona Lisa out of food and then just decided to toss it because I was suddenly unhappy/uninterested (FYI, it was some bits of romaine, corn tortilla, and some pieces of seaweed or I would've eaten it :P). I'm thinking about trying an "Alphabet Series" like I've seen so many artists do, because it would really make me focus on one thing at a time (instead of agonizing forever over what to make, how to make it, etc. etc. etc.). I'llFORCE MY STUPID HOBBY ON YOU let you know when I decide I guess?
