It's been awhile since I've added an entry, but the only place I seem to have time to make an entry is at work, and sometimes it is close to impossible to access this journal! Oh well.
Here is a picture of the Traveling Gnome. I really love this guy. You got to love the Gnome. I once was able to convince the kids that a gnome actually lived at Grandma's house, up in the attic. For years they believed me, but 'alas, not anymore. It really is a shame that kids have to grow up and question authority. It just isn't fair! Sometimes I wish everyone had a little more imagination. Why does it have to go away when you get older? The only hope we have is instilling imaginations of gnomes living in the attic, just so the grown ups can see the look of hope in a little one's eye of the possibility. You got to love the gnome; I just don't want look like him by the time I am able to take a nice long vacation!
I want to take a vacation away in a nice warm place where I can put my feet in a waterfall. One day we will take a cruise to Hawaii. Next summer, more than likely we'll be going to the Azores. This summer doesn't look very promising--not after the recent death of the kid's grandma. I am not in the mood to visit ex-relatives all dressed in black holding a baby on my hip alone. Disneyland is always an option, maybe a trip to Arizona. I just hope this is the last summer I have to spend working full time. We shall see. I am promising myself that summer will be consist of many trips to the beach, and taking the kids to day trips of museums, and fun things including ice cream and tan and rosy smiling faces.
Meanwhile, I am having a hard time considering fast food. After that Wendy's chili finger incident, the drive thru route doesn't seem like an option. All I can say is "EWW" That is sooo gross! It is unbelievable that someone could lose a finger like that with no one not knowing about it. "Gee...yeah, I was working the machines at the food processing plant, and at the end of the day, I noticed that I was lost a finger! Gee...I wonder where it could be?! Oh well, at least I still have 9 fingers left." Let's just hope that more body parts don't make an appearance later. I wanted to try the new fruit salad bowl, but now I'm worried that I may find more than just melons, cantelope and grapes. What's that floating in my ring of yogurt?! Eeek!
