And finding some headphones in case music is playing on someone's blog.<br /><br />As far as the whole maid/ cook thing goes, I have a funny story for you. Last night I thought because it was the Relief Society Christmas Dinner, I'd get the night off from cooking and dishes. But OH, NO! In a moment of stupidity, I signed up to set one of the tables at the church with my own dishes. Little did I know that it would include a centerpiece. I don't do centerpieces. It was a scramble. So I had to set the table - and then I had to take all the dishes home in a laundry basket and wash them. And then I had to make dinner for my kids and clean up after them because DDSH (Dear, Dear, Sweet Husband) didn't make them dinner and rushed off to play basketball when I got home.<br /><br />Status: Ate out at Red Robin while my dad fed the kids and cleaned up after them.

Drives me batty. <br /><br />As for music, I use Rhapsody (the on the go plan) and it lets me listen to as much as I want and all the songs I download are included in the monthly price so no paying per song--unless I want to burn the song onto CD). Added bonus, rhapsody links to my Tivo so I can my music to play through the tv too. :)Roni Lorenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02719679344024635326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9058478111996476699.post-54168115775706681642009-12-17T13:18:00.107-07:002009-12-17T13:18:00.107-07:00I love word verification because the things it ask...I love word verification because the things it asks me to type are strange and a bit beautiful.

Usually, I'm in such a hurry that I exit from the comment box just as I see that stupid word verification thing pop up and lose the comment!! ARGH! Drives me nuts.<br /><br />Second - I'm jealous. My school district has a tight lockdown on the internet. I can't ever check blogs or my private email from the school building. Grrrrrr. So how am I doing this right now? Because I'm home.
