Monday Mosaic and How I Spent My Weekend...which isn't all that interesting but oh well

• watched Arthur and the Invisibles at least 4 times with a sick child in my lap
• cleaned 3 nose bleeds...because that happens when he's sick
• washed 5 loads of laundry
• had a little helper assist me with sorting and matching socks, we were even able to find the missing half of many stragglers
• actually created in my art journal...a first in months
• pulled out the paint for the B-Dog...and then cleaned it all up...well, most of it...it's all still sitting on the kitchen table
• took a walk both Saturday and Sunday observing how beautiful the trees are and discovering if you stand under the yellowing leaves as the sun is setting it's like standing under a sky of gold
• a picnic at the park as a reward for good behavior at school
• chased a 4 year old around the playground only to discover he is much quicker than I...not to mention he has tons more energy...all this while he's supposed to be sick
• watched the movie Hoax with T...it was okay...interesting...not fabulous
• managed to dress myself Saturday but I don't think I ever managed to brush my hair
• took a nice Saturday afternoon nap
• spent hours cleaning and organizing the spare bedroom...and boy did it need it
• ignored the fact the bathroom is in desperate need of cleaning in favor of reading several chapters of Eat, Pray, Love which I've decided to read a second time after seeing Elizabeth Gilbert on Oprah
• purchased groceries to last until November 1 on under $9 because I'm that broke
• listened to the Foo Fighter's Skin and Bones...hmmm....at least once per day
• watched T clean most of the house...and felt guilty for only cleaning the spare bedroom...but it did need it...desperately
• enjoyed T's fabulous pasta...because I don't really cook much
• sat in my car at the park in the dark and journaled...yes, it's hard to see but I kind of like that about it
• finished editing the photos from this years family reunion...which was Labor Day weekend
• made several new banners for my blog until I finally had one that was okay...not completely happy with the size but I'm letting that go
• burned 2 dvd's full of images off my computer because my disk space was getting low
• realized there were about a dozen other things I needed to get done over the weekend that I just didn't get around to
• decided to let that go too...

Sometimes letting go is the best gift you can give to yourself. Love the autumnal banner! xx, JP/deb

I have a lot of problems with the sizing of banners with typepad too - just think I'm challenged that way.
Your new banner is gorgeous and I really like the idea of sitting in the dark car journaling.

a long list, but there is always so much isn't there? Good you are letting some things go. What other choice is there?
Love all the colors of your mosaic.
