cookies by request

lol so Kia came home yesterday and said I am requested to make my famous chocolate chip cookies (said cookies being famous after one class party about a  month ago) The yearbook class is having a birthday party, and even though Kia isn’t officially in that class for credit, he helps out.. so one of the girls from his other class said "hey Kia’s sister can make cookies..and started bragging on me …lol so now here it is after 11pm and I’m making cookies..

I had to wait on Chai to fall asleep before I could start making them, otherwise she’d be up every 5 minutes lol. While I was waiting on her to head off to dreamville, I started watching a movie, one I have seen in a very long time. Mona Lisa Smile. I am amazed at the talent of that movie, the talent that was casts to portray a piece of the american woman’s history. And I was a bit reminded to be thankful for the things in my life, as a woman. I mean today, I am able to have my own career, a family and not have to depend on a man if I so choose, without it being the town gossip. And divorce isn’t the taboo subject it once was (not that I like the idea of divorce, but I believe people should be able to choose a way out if something isn’t working right)

I’ve also considered how roles have reversed in this modern age. Today there are a lot of stay at home dads, which I commend, if they are actually taking care of the kids/house/etc while the wife works, not just sitting on their duffs and letting the woman do it all. Not to say there isn’t women like that these days either..wanting the man to be the superhero and they get to sit at home or shop when they want.

okay so i’ll get off that rant, besides between cookie times, I’ve forgotten what all I was going to say lol..

anyway.. so I have a couple more batches of cookies to do then I am going to pick a movie, fall asleep, get up & do it all over tomorrow.. well not literally lol.. tomorrow I have to finish up my anthropology assignments. I love the subject, just wish we didn’t have two texts to read on it.. isn’t one enough?  Chai has school, and then of course there is always house work.. especially the organization of my room, which is something that has needed done since the first part of the semester. Between my papers and Chai’s papers, my desk is lost.

well I’m going to wrap this up for the night, want to finish these cookies before 2am lol! more tomorrow
