One of the things I remember about growing up and Christmas were the Letters From Santa I got every year in the mail. Somehow each one was perfect! Santa always knew exactly what I wanted, the names of my pets and who my friends were! It was like he was always watching and wrote just […]

My son has no grace. He inherited naturally, so I really can’t blame him. He comes from a mother that was able to fall down a flight of stairs and only break one thing. Her pinky. Except I broke it bad enough to need surgery.
Tonight Alex was outside playing. He […]

One of the things I really want to do with Alex is to go hiking. Not mountain climbing, just simple hiking. Day trips and stuff like that. There are plenty of places around here to do it too, its just a matter of lacing up your hiking boots and going.
Getting the right […]

One of the things it suggested was to find the open house listings for luxury homes and then go to the viewings and take tours of the homes.
Um. Yeah. While I can understand […]

I really, really, really want this weekend to be mellow and relaxing. I need this weekend to be mellow. I am hoping to catch up on some sleep and do a lot of nothing. I have already managed to get the floors mopped and the laundry folded so really, there is no real reason I […]

I took Alex Trick or Treating. He was a Dragon this year, complete with wings and a tail. He looked SO dang cute in it. He refused to walk so his majestic royalty was pushed in a stroller up to every door where he signed please and I said Trick or Treat. We only went […]

We survived the poopfest/pukefest of 2007. Even better, the laundry survived. There are a good deal of things that I thought of and considered before having kids. I fully admit that my weak stomach and inability to handle strong smells and gross things was not one of them.
When I used to dream […]

I am this close to getting the last of the servers up, running and fully functional. This has been a 2 months project with a ton of roadblocks, a steep learning curve and a whole lot of frustration. I left work yesterday hopeful that today would be the day. I wasn’t looking […]
