~ I miss being "Sara Reno." I love being "Sara Mabin," but Reno is such a cool last name to have. I kept it - don't get me wrong - my full name is Sara Nichole Reno Mabin. I wanted to just stay Sara Reno, but Mike wasn't having it, so here I sit with four names. Sometimes I miss just having three.
~ I've been having this dream lately - like, at least three or four times a week - where I'm out riding a motorcycle and I LOVE it. I'm totally having the time of my life, and then I realize that I don't have a helmet on. I don't crash or anything, and I usually wake up right after I realize that I'm lacking that helmet, but I keep wondering what this dream means. Is it like a, "wow, you're having fun, but you're living recklessly" kind of thing?
~ My grandmother is driving my nuts with this dog. She keeps calling me crying because the dog is ruining her life. Then she guilt-trips me because the dog and Zion are both totally in love with each other. They play, and he's gentle, and they wear each other out chasing after each other. Apparently, he even kept Zion from running into the street one day. Just got in front of him and "herded" him back into the yard. This makes me slightly nervous about my grandmother letting Zion play outside, but apparently that wasn't the point. The point was that the dog should come and live with us. Hello? Cause we don't have enough going on right now with the toddler, three cats, a dog, two full-time jobs and a scrapbooking business? Yeah, grandma, that's exactly what we need.
~ I miss Vicki. A lot. I keep finding myself thinking lately, "Oh, I need to call Vicki and tell her about.." and then I realize that Vicki and I haven't spoken to each other since August. I wonder if it's something I can fix. It's funny.. there are some friendships that end and you know without a doubt in your mind that they can never be repaired, and then there are others that you think to yourself, "Maybe we just need to take a breather." I keep wondering which kind that was. It's hard to let go of an 8-year-friendship.
~ I wish I had a better relationship with my sister-in-law. I don't know how I would go about initiating it. She's the person who introduced me to scrapbooking in the first place, and it's such a huge part of my life.. but honestly, we don't have anything in common! I'm a mess, and she's one of those organized-to-the-hilt people.
~ I was up late last night waiting for Poppy Ink to post their add-on kits. When they did, I didn't buy any. Nothing struck me as something I really had to have.
~ I went to Archiver's on Saturday and didn't buy anything. I'm calling this a milestone - the Poppy Ink and the Archiver's.

non buying trips always deserve points! I feel for you with the dog thing, stand firm!
I would have also zoned in on the why was Zion about to run into the street aspect! Of course, my son tries to run into the street on a regular basis, but the dog is no help, he requires a human barrier.
