don't blink, you'll miss it

Just like that, it's the end of the day.

Where did it go? I know I spent way too long trying to figure out that picture-posting bug, but seriously, what happened to the rest of it?

I dunno. I did make a good lemon pudding cake for dessert tonight. The boys didn't like it, but everyone else enjoyed it. DD is a little lemon fiend (like me!). DS2 contented himself with a bowl of whipped cream.

Sometimes, it's so easy to please them. Whipped cream is one of those things, it takes about 3 minutes worth of effort and it makes them so happy. The other thing that they get a big kick out of is going over the train tracks on Chandler Blvd at about 40 mph (which, btw, is not speeding, the limit there is 45mph) -- the city fixed the tracks last year so they don't mangle your car, and there's this kind of a rise-then-dip in the road that gives you that kind of roller coaster feeling if you're going fast enough. If traffic allows, I goose the gas a bit to give the kids a thrill. DS2 will reliably say, "That was fun! Let's do that again!" Hee. I have to tell him I'm not driving around the block just so we can go over the tracks again, he'll have to wait until later. He's usually OK with that.

It was weird reading old entries here and seeing how much pain I used to have. I don't really have any pain these days, save the occasional twinge in my hands. It's nothing like what I remember, re-reading those old posts. Man, that is so cool. It's nice to feel I have a handle on some aspect of my life!
