For the Love of Big Bang Theory

I've fallen in love with the show "The Big Bang Theory". Amy's character and relationship with Sheldon is one of the reasons why. It may seem hard to believe, but my mother can attest, growing up, I was Amy's character. Socially inept, very bright and bad taste in clothes, LOL. I wasn't in neuroscience, but I was in electrical engineering, so what's the difference? I do love Star Trek too, which is more Sheldon-like. I find a lot of nostalgia for my youth in watching this show, but the other characters are still a lot like the statisticians I work with every day. We're all pretty geeky around here. I got the boys and Phoebe to watch Star Trek the Next Generation the other day with me. I was trying to get them to say Jean-Luc Picard. Didn't happen, but they liked the show. There is hope for them yet. The boys did see a small red planet in a book the other day and said, "That's Mars!" Oh yes, my little geeks in training that is Mars!!!

I adore this show! I am not a smart nerd, but I am a Star Wars nerd. Sheldon is the number one reason to watch this show. Even though he would probably drive me a bit nuts in real life... :)

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

Stopping the Voices in my Head - aka Mastering my Mindset

The more I work on my personal development, the more I realize I need to stop listening to and changing the negative things I tell myself in my head. I'm also noticing the older I get the more the negative things I hold as beliefs about myself are not true. This reinforces that I should second guess the other negative beliefs I hold inside ... maybe those are not true either. Here are a few things I've realized are not true: I need help to put air in my car tires - This was one of the first things I learned as my husband had to move to Colorado for work. I did this at the Wawa up the street where the machine will stop and beep when your tires are at the right pressure. I also learned and committed to memory that the pressure you want your tires at is inside your gas cap, something I have to open at least once a week. This was something that was super easy to learn to do and had me zipping along the roads in a few minutes without the anxiety...

Here's Phoebe's 5th Grade School Picture. I really like her in red or bright colors. She's definitely becoming quite the little lady.
