Happy Summer

May 21, 2012

I know next weekend is Memorial Day, but this weekend our pool opened, which means  it is the unofficial beginning of summer.  I love our community pool.  It is in our neighborhood, and last summer we literally spent the whole summer there.  Because Doug had been laid off, it was a way to “do something” [...]

May 12, 2012

Jodifur was down for a good portion of yesterday.  My lovely host and designer was having some behind the scene server issues.  I would try to explain it but what I heard was “blah, blah, blah, blah, BLOG DOWN, and I’m working on it. ” It is clearly back up, but in case you missed it, [...]

Today

Today is my birthday.  I don’t tell you this for millions of HAPPY BIRTHDAY comments.  I’m getting those on Facebook and they are lovely.  Your birthday is really the only good day to be on Facebook.  I wasn’t even going to  post today, but I’m sitting on my couch watching last night’s Glee.  Dinosaurs?  Really?

Rebirth

March 26, 2012

For some reason I’ve been thinking a lot about last Spring.  Last Spring, I was in tears, counting down to the end of Kindergarten.  This Spring, I never, ever want first grade to end.  I’m dreading finding out who Michael’s second grade teacher is because no one could ever be as good as his first [...]

The Worst News Ever

March 12, 2012

On Saturday I went and got my hair cut and colored, which is really my favorite day ever, next to manicure and pedicure day.  I love my hairdresser.  She is funny and fun and we always have the best conversations. It took me forever to find a hairdresser I adore.  I recommend her to everyone.   [...]
