I feel like I have just done a leap from the high dive and am plummeting down into the deep water and can’t seem to go up and get a breath of air. Vegas was a blast. It felt so good to get away for a few days with my two best friends. It was […]
“Life in the fast lane Surely make you lose your mind” I feel that is my life for the next week. Today I need to do laundry. Tomorrow morning I pack up for a flying trip down to DeForest. Tamara’s step-dad passed away and we are going down for the wake. The funeral is private, […]
I watched a lot of Lifetime Movies yesterday. One part that struck me was a single mother just had her baby. She was living with her parents at the time. She made a comment along the lines of it was the hardest job ever. At times it seems to get easier, but there are just […]
Tonight we somehow started singing “Jump Around”. I can’t remember how we even got started. Robert then played the song on the stereo. He and Laura were having a great time dancing to it. Warren was laughing at the sight. I was just enjoying taking it all in. We then proceeded to play various dance […]
I honestly can’t remember a lot of my weekend. I’ll do what I can for a recap: Friday – I had my weekly morning coffee at church. Robert stayed home with both kids so I could have a bit of a break. After coffee was over, I went to the local strawberry patch and picked […]

Me: “Laura, are you poopy?” Laura: “No. You check?” *she walks backwards to me* *Look, and yes, she has pooped* Laura: “Oh goodness. Oh goodness.” While waiting at the doctor yesterday: Me: “Were you a good girl today?” Laura: “Yeah.” Me: “Were you naughty?” (She hadn’t been naughty that day. I was just asking to […]
This morning was Laura’s dentist appointment. I had hoped she’d go back on her own, but that wasn’t going to happen. It took a bit to even get her to sit in the chair. As soon as the chair moved up, she started freaking out. It only went down hill. We didn’t get her teeth […]
No, I am not considering the single life. I just got to thinking, that Mandy and Jess never really got to see me through most of my singleness and most of dating. The three of us really got close during Blocks, which were junior and senior years of college. Robert and I hooked up during […]
