Bug Beds & Bun Head

If you view this picture, you may see a random piece of paper inside an Ivy plant... from all appearances, one would assume I have trash in my plant and should clean it. But, let me tell you that it is not trash.

The other day I found a little bug on my floor. Yes, we have little bugs out here in TX in the Summer. It was one of those clicker bugs...the kind that click when they flop around... He wasn't doing very well and Annah was concerned so I told her we would put him in the Ivy plant and maybe he would get better. This morning she lovingly made the bug a hospital bed. She got a piece of paper, colored it and glued it in a shape she felt sure was the replica of a hospital bed and asked me to put it in the Ivy for the bug.


And, of course, since the camera was already out, Annah had to take this lovely picture of me early this morning with my bun head.

So, today I am going to the college to see if I have enough classes to qualify for any sort of degree. I have taken a zillion college courses but never connected my dots. Well, I have the 2 year core down but, then I just sporadically took any course I wanted to without following an actual degree plan. I took Flash when it first came out and other multimedia courses... and other things I can't recall because it was just random. But, my other goal is to go ahead and go for a Performing Arts degree with an emphasis on Spanish. I probably have the core for it and then I will need an additional 10 Spanish courses which I very much want to have. I have this very deep want to be fluent in the Spanish language. I have been trying to teach myself through Rosetta Stone, Spanish for Gringos and other sources. I am not fluently conversational but, I can understand enough to carry on some conversation... I know tons of words but, not so much as to connect my dots on this either. I think it would be awesome to be an interpreter.

So, off to do life. :) Thank you God for this beautiful Texas day and may I be attentive to You as I go through it.
