I stole this from Amanda (Bookwormom) Your Theme Song is Beautiful Day by U2 “Sky falls, you feel like It’s a beautiful day Don’t let it get away” You see the beauty in life, especially in ordinary everyday moments. And if you’re feeling down, even that seems a little beautiful too. What’s Your Theme Song?…

Todd told me this evening that I need a new post because he’s getting bored reading the same thing over and over. This past week has given me many blogworthy subjects, but I’m afraid I don’t have the time or the energy to give any of them the attention they deserve. They will have to…

We had a great weekend. Lots of good stuff going on. Much to tell. But I don’t have time write much so I’ll give you the Reader’s Digest Condensed Version. Saturday evening was a neighborhood block party. There’s only one way in and out of the subdivision so we blocked off one of the streets…

My husband, Todd, rode in the 26th Annual City to Shore Bike Tour this past Saturday. He colleted a good amount of money for the charity and I decided to post the email he sent his sponsors yesterday. After reading it I’m sure you’ll feel a deep compassion for our children. The poor kids just…

Today is September 19 – better known as International Talk Like a Pirate Day to buccaneers and scaliwags alike.

READING I finished Viscount Vagabond…

My cousin, Charmian, posted this video at our family Yahoo group. It’s just too funny not to share. Rather impressive, if you ask me. TREADMILL VIDEO Enjoy!

I had a life-altering experience on Saturday. To some it may seem like nothing to get worked up about, no big deal. But to me it was like a gift from God, better than sliced bread (which truly doesn’t excite me). You know how there are special moments in your life that are so full…

As probably all of you know, I had a left mastectomy on May 3, 2005 due to breast cancer. On May 3, 2006 this cake was delivered to my door: Two of my friends, Lisa and Amy (hi guys), sent this to me for an anniversary cheer-me-up. Along with the cake they sent a card.…

Todd is 42-years-old today. He was 19 when we started dating. It’s weird to think of him as a middle-aged man. It’s downright horrific to think of myself as a middle-aged woman. Where have the years gone? Of course, most of the time I still see us as those crazy twenty-something, newly married kids. But…
