Mother of the Year may be out, but I’m a shoo in for Idiot of the Year. Katie went to babysit late yesterday afternoon and I received a text from her at some point saying she would be home around 1:00. At 11:30 I headed up to bed and Taylor was in the basement with…

I’m starting something new this year. Very new. Now, I’m not one to make resolutions at the first of the year. To me a resolution is nothing more than a set up for failure. But I AM trying a different course to life and the initiation date just happened to be the first Monday in 2011. This…

Today has been a long day and it’s not over yet. So this is going to be short and sweet. I am Oh-So-Very-Thankful that this is my last “Thankful November” post. The End

Today has been a good day and a not so good day all rolled into one. The not so good part?

Thursday, September 23, 2010: 1530: Deploy from driveway in packed vehicle. 1531: Pick up Hannah. 1532: Hit the open road. Yesterday we left the hood shortly after Katie got home from school. We drove around the corner to pick up Hannah, Taylor’s good friend who was diagnosed with Stage IV Hodgkins just weeks before graduating from high…

(are you singing the song?) What is the significance of the first Friday after shool starts? Anybody? That’s right! It’s Homie Time! Not only is it Homie Time, it’s Brunch with the Homies time. Is there anything better than delicious food and laughing with good friends and meeting some new ones? I think not. And…
