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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Mamacita says: 1. I haven’t taken the wreath off the front door. I can’t. It’s been pouring down rain for three solid days, and I can’t put the wreath away soaking wet, can I? Besides, I like to see it still there, telling the world that within this house dwell people who know how to [...]

Mamacita says: 1. I haven’t run the sweeper since the Christmas tree fell. There are fake green “needles” all over the house. 2. I haven’t dived into the bowl of half-price Hershey miniature candy bars yet. Um, never mind. 3. I haven’t been able to get a piano tuner to come to my house during [...]

Mamacita says: 1. I intended to put up my Christmas tree today but what with sleeping till noon one thing after another, I didn’t do it. 2. I intended to get that huge, ever-growing stack of essays scored, but I went to Arby’s with my husband and his mother and then came home and sewed [...]

Mamacita says: 1. I have never watched a reality show. 2. I do not admire Angelina Jolie in the least. Nor Brad Pitt. Adultery is not admirable. 3. I have never gone skinny-dipping, although I’ve gone swimming with lots of people who DID go skinny-dipping. Everybody goes skinny-dipping in the Hoosier quarries, except for me. [...]

Mamacita says: 1. I haven’t mentioned, here, if I’m happy or upset over the election results. I’ll have to say that I’m majorly unhappy over my own state’s choice of governor, but as for the presidential election, I’m only saying that I will stand by the winner. One’s personal choice of candidate is supposed to [...]

Mamacita says: If I tell you that I’ve got most of my Christmas shopping done, would you still love me? No? Um, then I’m nowhere NEAR finished yet. 1. I haven’t put my Christmas cd’s in the player. But I want to. 2. I haven’t covered my rosebushes even though it’s supposed to freeze tomorrow. [...]

Mamacita says: I think I’ve forgotten Ten Things Tuesday these past few weeks, but I’ll try to do better now that things are settling down a bit here. Just a bit, mind you, but that’s better than before! 1. I love to bake homemade bread. People are always threatening me with a bread machine, but [...]
