Feeling sorry for…

Hubby-
Seems like every time he tackles a home improvement project, everything that can go wrong does. Pretty much we figure that the 3 Stooges built our house because really, nothing in our house makes sense. Wherever they could take a short cut they did.
So relocation of stuff and demolition on the basement has begun. We [...]

Fun weekend…

My friend Clara has the greatest quote on her page (http://clara2805.blogspot.com/)
“courage does not always roar. sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, ‘I will try again tomorrow’.” – mary anne radmacher
It really says something about perserverance and “getting back on the horse” so-to-speak, with regards to anything you’re trying [...]

Good weekend…

Had a really nice weekend!
Friday the inlaws took the kids and hubby and I headed up north for the annual Zoo-De-Mack bike bash (http://www.zoo-de-mack.com/events/zdm/index.asp)! Some friends had done this event the past couple of years and invited us and some other friends and family this year. You start off at the Zoo Bar at Boyne [...]

It’s official…

Cinco De Mayo!

Funny how cinco de mayo always seems to sneak up on me, even though it’s the same date every year!! No celebrating going on, we’ve discovered we are recovering from a kind of virus. Mine and Punkin pie’s throats were sore/swollen so I was afraid of strep as my cousin’s little guy has it. So [...]

Punkin pie got his fever yesterday and today, so hopefully he will be feeling better tomorrow. Baby and I had it Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and are both finally feeling mostly normal today. So here’s hoping that THIS will be end of our illness for the season. My cousin’s little guy has Strep, but none of [...]

Three quarters of the way through swim practice on Tuesday I started feeling seasick. Just the rocking motion of every stroke I took made me feel like I wanted to throw up. Even using a kickboard got to me. So I had to get out of the pool and head home early. I was disappointed since I [...]
