On the Palette


Phthalo Green: Poor Joan. The two weekends off were great but she ended up having to put in two full days this weekend. I can't complain much about it because it's a part of the responsibility she inherited with her promotion. Jessie and Ben are too young to really understand why Mom is gone almost seven days a week these days. Wow...I just got a flashback of when I was young and missed seeing my Dad many days and nights because of his dedication to work.

Hopefully in a couple of weeks her staff will really get caught up and she can take some much deserved R n' R time.


Brilliant Purple: Finally! Ben woke up with a smile this morning! I guess he's now completely over the seizures from the other night. I'm really wanting him to put in a full week of school which he's not been able to do since the Christmas holidays for some reason or another. Hopefully this will be the week.


Cobalt Blue: That's one of the team colors of my prediction of tonight's Super Bowl winner. I really have no dog in this fight and would just like to see a great football game. I have too many blog friends with allegiances to both teams so here's hoping for a tie and a double-overtime game! Is anyone else worried that Prince will do something at halftime to top Janet Jackson's performance from a few years back?
