November 18 / Calm / This hangs about the stove at work. It reminds me how blessed I am to have my mom in my life. My kids at work lost their mom and it breaks my heart every time I think about it. Instead of focusing on that thought I do my best to be the best nanny I can be and to take advantage of every moment I have with my mom.

Safe
I am absolutely terrified of snakes...so this afternoon I was sitting out on the deck at my parents and guess what I saw?!?! A snake!!! Not only was it a snake but it was a big one! I couldn't let it just sit there and watch me relax. My dad wasn't home to do the dirty work so I took matters into my own hands. I actually killed a snake instead of running in the opposite direction screaming. I would say that's an accomplishment and thanks to me the world is a little bit safer now. Well at least I feel like it's safer!
