School today is brought to you by the letter "F"! As in bull Frog and FISH!

Millie brought Fish and a book of Fireflies and a book about the Froggy Prince.

After dropping both girls off, I hit the trail.

The picture of controversy. Sean, I just do not understand why Jennifer has to be so hateful all the time. I have to tell you, family or not, I'm tired of being treated so awfully by her. I am no longer going to make concessions or give her anymore opportunity to stir up drama, cause me stress or grief. She is toxic. I know she is unhappy with her life and I totally get that, but why try to make others unhappy? I feel as if I have gone out of my way to bring to life a friendship between her and I, but it just isn't going to happen. SO, from this day forward, I am cutting that cancer out of my life. No more meet ups, no more family get togethers, no more text messages letting her know what is going on with us, no more encouraging her to workout with me, or where to go for working out. No more. Done.

So back to the people who actually matter in our life.

Autumn made this Fruit loop necklace. She has eaten most of it!

When I went to pick the girls up from school, I noticed Kip and N.'s garage door was open, but I didn't see any cars. I thought it was strange, but went on to school. When I got home from picking up the girls, it was still open so I gave N a call. She was completely surprised and said that Kip must have left it open. She asked me to close it and then go out the back door. So, I did. After a little visit with:

Gizmo and the other puppy (I forgot her name). Gizmo still hates Autumn, so we weren't able to pet him.

Something Millie made.

Something Autumn made. I love the things she tells Miss Kari. These are all true too! When we left school today, Autumn turned to Miss Kari and said, "I love you Miss Kari." So very sweet. Miss Kari told Autumn she loved her too!

The count: 63 days of missing you.

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e...

The man in the box.

Not really, it is just Autumn but saying the little girl in the box doesn't sound as cool. Autumn got in the box and was popping out of it. Then she told me, "Mommy, go that way." I think Autumn is on the tail end of this "cold." She already seems to be feeling better. Her nose is drying up, so that is good. I gave both of the girls a bath tonight, then I even got one! Emelia did something today that shocked me..... She rolled over. Of course that happened the day after you leave. Something else that waited for you to leave..... a 4.9 earthquake. It was the first time I've actually felt one since we moved to Alaska. It was, to say the least, scary to me! It did sound like a train/car/plane hit the house. Autumn was in rare form today. She told me that: She was going to take a nap on the stairs. Just kidding!! Such a sweet girl. Tomorrow we go to the Buckner gym for the first time with Emelia. I'm feeling a little nervous about it, but I'm...
