Tag, I'm It!
What were you doing ten years ago
It was my last year of regular classroom teaching. I knew Fantasy Boy was in crisis and needed me to be home, but I was the only one earning income. Fantasy Boy was stressed at daycare, DH was finishing off the dissertation and I had no idea how to solve my life. Things are much, much better now.
What were you doing one year ago
Pretty much the same as now. Teaching Fantasy Boy, writing Changeling, reconstructing Blarney in my head. Learning about swim teams by having Swimmer Boy in the house with us. And we didn't have the piggies.

What's Cooking
We're on vacation this week. We've been eating out a lot and we're all sick of it. Today I made a German apple pancake for breakfast and I'm making beef tenderloin, baked potatoes and a chocolate cake for dinner.
