Pictures and complaints

Here are some pictures I took at the karate tournament my husband and daughter competed in over the weekend.






Here are a couple of pictures of my daughter with Mookie that my husband took yesterday when the two of them went to visit our little puppy.




My brother and sister-in-law are in Argentina right now, so I pretty much hate them. My parents just came back from a cruise, so I pretty much hate them, too. Not really, but I'm jealous of everybody getting to go on cool vacations. Actually, the cruise was my mother's birthday present from my brother, sister and I, so I can't really complain about that one. But I am jealous that everyone but me seems to go away to distant lands. It's my own fault, I know. My brother and his wife don't have kids yet, so they're going to do as much traveling as they can before they start popping out the urchins. My sister and her family go traveling all the time. We never go anywhere. Part of it is money, but another part is that I think we don't have the money. We kind of don't, but I don't want to look back on my life wishing I'd done more stuff that I never got around to. You know, time really is short. OK, I'm going to keep my resolution this year and get those damn passports. I mean it.
