about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

quote of the day

  • "Moral of the story: Do not look at the gap. The gap is the mind-killer. Remember how Wile E. Coyote never fell down until he saw the chasm? It’s just like that." --Taylor "Tei" Lindstrom, Rogue Ink

dumbass quote

  • "I think we have come to find out that the Education system, run by Liberal Hippies that really couldn't find any other job that allowed them so much time off, the ability to do drugs, and to spout their rhetoric is alive and well. It is teaching out kids things like 'Abortion is Good,' 'Government is Bad.' We have educators that, for the most part, don't teach to the subject, they teach to their beliefs. It is really sad, and even sadder when you see highly intelligent children buying into it." --Kelli

21 days

October 18, 2007

The boys have been quarreling excessively these past few weeks, so I’ve been looking for a new approach to getting them to cooperate more. My solution was to take the A Complaint Free World idea and make it more relevant to our family life.

The boys have behavior bracelets they wear on their left wrist. The goal is to keep it there for 21 consecutive days. If they misbehave, they move the bracelet to their right wrist and begin back at Day One. At the end of 21 days, I’m going to let them have a reward.

They’ve been perfectly behaved the entire day. I don’t know if the idea will continue to work, but I’m hopeful.

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
