What's Making Mama Happy?

Lots of things are making me happy this week. Like...

Blogs!

School@Home: Tenniel is blogging again. This is the first blog I ever read, and the one that started me on the blogging path. Six years later, and I still read. She's a smart Mama and well worth checking out.

Digital Mom Blog: Maybe it's because I'm a gadget girl at heart, but I had to read a blog called Digital Mom. Molly did not let me down. She's a modern Mama who loves tech, but who puts her family first.

Stuff!

Byerly's (what I call the Nordstrom's of Super Markets) is finally selling my favorite cookie. McVities Digestive Biscuits with the chocolate on one side!




Previously I had to either have it shipped, find it in a specialty store, or bribe friends/family in the U.K. to bring them to me. I'm so excited to get my hands on some McVities!

Music:

Jonathan Coulton: I have to like a guy who has a song that is basically an ode to a Mathematician. And what computer girl doesn't like a song about a Code Monkey? I think I dated that guy once (okay, probably more than once). Of course, thanks to Mr. Coulton I'm now walking around my house singing a very mellow rendition of "Baby Got Back" which is interesting. I wonder if I've got an Oakland bootie...

Random:

I had two IEP meetings today, and I think both went really well!  Both Reagan (12) and Ciaran (4) have made so much progress in the last year.  I'm really proud of them.

People are reading my blog!  I don't know who you are, but I've had about 5 new followers this week.  It means a lot to me that anyone reads what I have to write.  It's very encouraging, and I appreciate those of you who take the time to visit.
