It's only January & my husband is in full political mode. He's watched every ounce of coverage & insists that we only refer to Mitt Romney as 'President Romney' within the walls of our house. Chad prefers to be called VP Marchant.

Been watching Flip Men, Shipping Wars. Can't wait for Southland, Royal Pains & White Collar to return this week. I also discovered Downton Abbey this week. Since Chad has been out of town -- I ripped through the first season + started the second season in 24 hours.

Keller is a freakin' genius. He can pretty much do 2 digit addition in his head. He can pick most all picture books up & whip through them. Got a small keyboard from my grandparent's house & started to teach him some basic 'Mary Had a Little Lamb' & reading music. He's picking it up fast.

Pet peeve from work this time of year: PARENTS, regarding the cost of higher education: Please make sure: A) You've prepped your child to do well enough academically in high school that they will earn a scholarship and quit whining that you kid is a 'bad test taker' ; B) You've planned well enough to understand the high costs in sending your child to college [You've had the child for 18 years -- Please don't freak out when it comes down to 18 weeks to send your kid away...You've had time to save.]

Chad has a majority of January off. By the way -- He earned near straight A's for his first semester of grad school. Go Smart Man! He spent last week in El Centro, California [2 hours southeast of San Diego] working for Dale Carnegie. He spent several nights in a sketchy hotel with a cat meowing outside his door & a continental breakfast consisting of a loaf of bread & white powdered donuts.

We've been loving our new annual pass to the San Diego Zoo & Safari Park.
