Jewels for a Queen

Yesterday I had my jewelry party.  Total flop...some people did show up...like 6. I think a lot more people would have come, but it is the holidays and a lot of people are going out of town. Heck S is going to India !!  I want to go to India and see Roopa and Uma ....how I miss Uma ! Should have not gone to the UK, I should have gone to India and learned to knit with Uma. Someday, I am going to knit one of those Irish Jumpers in cream. Those have always seemed so romantic to me.  Hmm....I wonder if Gavin Newsom has one ? Anyway, I am going to have to go to the Opera again, just to wear what I bought last night.
NATO 2010 has been going on in Lisbon this week. Wow how intense !  Hillary looks a little wiped out, but can you blame her ? If the world was a peace there would be no need for a missile shield. Oh well I wonder if countries sometimes go to war just because they are bored ? I am still pondering why Bush did it...well I can say it did create jobs for a lot of Americans.  Obama looked pretty good. I wonder ....you know if I happen to be married to an official in the State Department how I would be ? Walking around and meeting world leaders.  Would I just shake hands and nod and pretend like I know what the heck is going on ? Would I dare ask questions and admit my non understanding ? This would of course cease after my subscription to " The Economist" and "The Nation". Clearly my understanding of International Relations would be greatly improved. I think though, it would be best if I kept my mouth shut. Remember one without boundaries is quite dangerous. Some how things have to be brought back to how they used to be. So, the value of my home will go up and I can stay in Danville.
 T just told me that there is a good chance that he will be moving to Georgia early. So, I will be a single parent for 2 weeks on and then he would be home 2 weeks . I don't know...it's depressing.  I think I would rather have him stay in Georgia for a month and then come home. It's going to be hard on me and hard on the kids. Besides, I can create a system for my kids without the distraction of T being around. Now, despite how cruel that sounds.....it would be great for me.  I generally do all the day stuff and he takes care of evening stuff.  I would be doing both, and rightly so I should be doing both. This of course kills my dream of going back to school and taking classes. It also kills my boot camp at 5:40am.  I suppose you just can't have your cake and eat it too. Negotiations is going to take awhile so I won't know for a long time what is really going to happen. 
A took me to lunch at Chow's in Danville.  I had soup and Amy had a salad.  The menu was just not that appealing. The chocolate cream pie was fantastic...it amazes me how good organic desserts taste !  The soup was okay. I am debating where I should try my next Salmon meal ?  Should I move on to other fish ? Salmon just seems to be the champion of Omega 3. Okay, this might just be the most boring blog yet ! I am hoping for fun and excitement today so I can blog about it tomorrow !! Yahooooo !!
