Mamacita says: Oh, I am such a backwards, provincial thing!
1. I still have never used an ATM machine. I have a feeling it might be a detrimental skill for me to learn.
2. I still have never watched a single Survivor-type show. They all seem more like fraternity hazings to me.
3. I’ve still not watched [...]

Mamacita says: I’m listening to Straight No Chaser, and it’s impossible to be completely whiny when those blazingly, almost impossibly, talented guys are singing straight to me and me only. . . .
I know they’re big stuff now, and I’m glad because they so totally deserve to be big stuff, but let it be [...]

Mamacita says: I’m really not a very cool or adventurous person, and many of the things I’ve never done are done every day by most people. I get that “raised eyebrow oh really” face from others, a lot. Sigh.
1. I’ve never used an ATM machine. That’s always good for some “oh really” expressions.
2. I have [...]

Mamacita says: I have actually lived a very provincial life. I haven’t been much of anywhere, and all I do is work. I’m not extraordinary in any way, and I haven’t any outstanding talents. I love to sing, but shouldn’t. A sadly accurate description of me would have to include words like “mousy,” and “insecure,” [...]

Mamacita says: Who among us doesn’t need help with forgiveness? We all need to learn to forgive, and to learn to be forgiven, and to learn to cope when we get neither.
Learning to forgive is one of my (many) shortcomings, for even though I try and have tried all my life to be a forgiving [...]

Mamacita says:
1. Family snapshots are still strewn all over the living room floor. They’ll be there until the family gets here to go through them. A word of advice: label all of your pictures while you still remember names and dates. You think you’ll always remember, but you won’t.
2. There are very few good pictures [...]
Mamacita says:
1. I haven’t picked the ten thousand pictures we’re going through, off the living room floor yet. We’re still looking at them. Plus, we’re expecting family to come down any day now and look through them with us.
2. I haven’t sent out any “Thank you for your sympathy” cards yet, but I’ve got them [...]

Mamacita says: It’s time for another round of Things I Haven’t Done Yet.
1. Spring FORWARD; fall BACK. I’ve changed a few clocks that I look at regularly, but elsewhere in the house? Not yet. Also, I’m too lazy I’m too short to reach most of the wall clocks, so they don’t need to be sprung [...]

Mamacita says:
1. I haven’t entered my students’ names in either the online gradebook or the hard copy gradebook yet. I really need to do this because writing the scores on a piece of paper with first names only on it is getting pretty awkward.
2. I haven’t figured out all the bells and whistles my [...]

Mamacita says:
!. I just realized that the silk mistletoe “kissing ball” is still hanging from the archway between the dining and living rooms. I need to take that down and pack it away for next year.
2. The green Christmas candles are still on the hutch, but, but, I LIKE them!
3. I haven’t finished grading [...]
