Yes.
I am.

This week in review:
A new plant with a name that is way too similar to a disease no one ever wants to talk about. I keep saying the wrong name at inopportune times when describing that guy that I like so much driving "blank" home in his convertible.
And then I laugh because it's awkward.
All filing, shredding, organizing of paperwork for 2010 is complete. It wasn't very fun and while I did find Matthew's passport, I still have not located his birth certificate.
Sorry, Matteo. I ordered one from your home state of birth and it's on its way.
Even though it is basketball season, I cooked some and fed some...things like homemade tomato bread soup and a pot roast and risotto and an easy pasta with asparagus and prosciutto.
So no one went hungry.

There was a nice breakfast out with that guy that I like so much at our favorite breakfast spot...the one that has a fireplace AND a buy one get one weekly coupon, where I ate my very favorite granola pancakes.
In November I was asked by a friend to donate a slew of necklaces for goody bags for a big Hollywood fundraiser...it was for a charity I love so without a second thought sent them on their way.
This week I got a big order from someone whose movies I watch all. the. time. and whose husbands movies I watch all. the. time.
I am jeweler to the stars.

And on a side note...these are my new favs. One word, plus your favorite verse:
Let's see....what else this week?
- The ugly: basketball for my middle and questioning so many things.
- The beautiful: his reply to my text message vent. "mom, this is all part of my story. God has a plan." He listens. All these years, he's listened. Now I need to.
- The strange: I held a donut/coffee hour for my crossing guards. Let's just say that some eclectic people choose to work as crossing guards.
- The thankful: an SOS call to one of my BFF's at a moment when I thought I might fall apart. I am blessed in the friend department.
- The warm: January in SoCal...77 degrees. My toes are screaming in happiness.
- The cats: perfect. In case you were wondering.
- The boys: Matthew is home, but moving back to dormland this weekend. I love having him here. Sigh. Alex...see above. Brian? Sweet. Cute. Talkative. Nothing new there. =0)
- That guy that I like so much: somewhat stressed. Poor guy. Not a smooth end to break, thanks to work stuff.
- The fun: an impromptu lunch with a friend that included gorgonzola rigatoni AND tapenade:
Plans for this weekend include a Saturday with absolutely nothing planned except an evening under the outside heater in the backyard while sipping the very last of the carried home from Italy limoncello.
(that's a looong sentence!)

What are your weekend plans?
Finally a blog! I was beginning to worry! We are also experiencing spring-like weather. It's still too wet to work outside, but with no rain in the forecast for the next week, we just might be able to do our 'fall clean-up'!!! Love to all the boys and you too :-) Keep on blogging...
