This morning I took an owl to the Animal Shelter. When I dropped him off, they told me they didn’t do anything for them but waited for someone to pick them up. At 3-4 o’clock this afternoon! This was at 9:00 a.m. this morning. When I called the Wildcare people to tell them I’d dropped […]

Makeup I’ve been loving this summer!
August 25th, 2012 · No Comments
It seems like I change my make up frequently. Do other people do that? I mean I don’t necessarily fall out of love with a particular product, or anything, I just kind of move on to something else without thinking about it much. Some of it is the seasons. I tend to wear different makeup […]

This is what I did this week
August 23rd, 2012 · 1 Comment
That beautiful, straight smile is what $1,901, and 8 months worth of trips to the orthodontist, buys you these days. Three of those trips were this week; one on Tuesday and two on Wednesday. We are now the proud owners of a semi-permanent retainer and a wire across the back of his front four teeth […]

Look what I did this weekend!

This was my storage cabinet before. I couldn’t get the door closed. When I opened the door stuff fell out on my head. I could never find lids for the containers I wanted to use. This is my storage cabinet after: I moved a few things. I got rid of a bunch of things. I […]

Summer’s Ending
August 16th, 2012 · No Comments
Another summer is coming to a close. The BoyChild starts school tomorrow which to me always symbolizes the end of summer. We didn’t really do much this summer. I hired a girl I knew from Church to help with the BoyChild this summer. She was fabulous! I didn’t quite know what to call her. He’s […]

Oldest Person In The Room
July 2nd, 2012 · No Comments
The other day I was at a deposition. I was the oldest person in the room; by about 30 years. The witness, who was born the year AFTER I graduated from high school was the second oldest person in the room. It was a little sobering.

Updating the New Normal
April 18th, 2012 · 2 Comments
The last few weeks have been…busy. That’s the only real word to describe it. Busy. For Spring Break, the BoyChild and I went to Grapevine, Texas to visit LegoLand. We had a good time, but I was a little disappointed. I thought it was an all day, Six Flags, sort of place. Instead it an […]

Last weekend my friend and I ran in the Run Lucky 5k race. We didn’t make great time, but we did o.k. That’s us near the finish line. While we were there, the BoyChild and I went into the running store. I’d been there before buying shoes and stuff, but that day I was on […]

Run Lucky
March 12th, 2012 · No Comments
Yesterday I ran in the Run Lucky 5k race. This is how I looked before I started: I felt a little ridiculous but was trying to get into the spirit of things. This is me at the end. Not really caring that I looked ridiculous. Funny story: My running partner and I got to the first […]
