Dear Woman At Starbucks

April 7, 2013

On Sunday mornings Doug and I take Michael to religious school and drive to the closest Starbucks, get coffee and breakfast and sit.  For two glorious hours we sit and drink coffee, chat, and play on our ipads.  Sometimes we talk about things that need to be discussed, life, bills, issues, politics, whatever.  Sometimes we [...]

The Worst Thing About My Vacation Is That It Is Over

April 3, 2013

We are back from the Westin Diplomat in Hollywood, Florida and it was one of the best vacations we have ever taken.  The weather was amazing, 80 and sunny every day except the very last day we were there.  The mojitos were plentiful and the surroundings simply beautiful.  How can you not love anyplace that [...]

Vacation All I Ever Wanted

March 25, 2013

It is Spring Break around these parts, and for some reason Michael has 10 days off.  10 DAYS.  I remember when I first saw the school calendar last year I looked at Doug and said “we are going away.  10 days is too long to be home with nothing to do.”  That was before I [...]

I Am Not Actually A Pharmacist

March 20, 2013

My husband has been sick for over 2 weeks, and I know all of you think your husbands are bad patients, but my husband could win the GOLD MEDAL in it.  Seriously.  There is moaning and epic naps, and drama like none you have ever seen.  It is so bad, that last year, when he [...]

A Post That Is A Lot Like Seinfeld

March 19, 2013

Sorry for that unexpected blogging break.  (I actually hate posts that start like that.  It assumes that you are frantically checking this site like WHY ISN’T SHE BLOGGING?  I know that you were not doing that.)  To be honest,  I’m having a terrible time finding things to write about.  Life is phenomenally boring.  Doug was [...]

8 Years

March 15, 2013

I apologize to everyone who came here today looking for Shoe Friday.  I’m taking a break for Michael’s birthday. 8.  8 is such a big number.  It is firmly, you are no longer a little kid.  It is, you are almost done with second grade and soon you will be in third grade, which is [...]

Maelstrom

March 12, 2013

This week is the perfect storm of everything, a busy week at work, a very, very sick husband, Michael’s birthday AND Birthday party, which somehow turned into two birthday parties, and I’m sure there is more but I somehow lost count.  I’m very seriously telling myself that tingle in the back of my throat is [...]
