It made my day...
I've been gone for a week, traveling for work and now traveling for pleasure. The Fourth weekend has been very good, with a BBQ and fireworks last night at my sister's house, swimming with the nephews yesterday and today, and watching my hubby teach my cousin's son how to scuba in Mom's pool.
After dinner tonight, the parents, the hubby, and I ( Read more... ) -
Guardian Angel
Every day she is out on the streets, taking care of those who can’t take care of themselves. She knows them by name and they know her too. When they see her coming down the road, they run to her car, excited to see that she is back again, even though she is there every day. They are excited because they know she brings good things. She brings food ( Read more... ) -
Oh motivation, where did you go???
On May 25th, I was less than a pound from hitting the 30lbs lost mark with Weight Watchers. The very next week was my baby sister’s wedding, and I knew I would be eating like a pig because at my parents’ house, they are either cooking like Paula Dean (I think a pound of butter would make this recipe so much better!) or they eat fast food. On the ( Read more... ) -
Cha-ch-ch-changes....
On Saturday we found out that our preacher is leaving for another church. We are in a major transition time within our church and it is just awkward that he is leaving us right now. In January, we sold our church building and have been holding our services in the Chesterton YMCA. We have property south of I-90, where we are going to build a ( Read more... ) -

The lady in charge of our plant (Sharon) and the lady in charge of our PA plant (Lisa) are both moving up to VP positions! Sharon is going to be the ( Read more... ) -
Hi!
Ok - my life is super busy right now outside of work, but I am finding small snippets of time in between meetings to jot down random thoughts. I apologize in advance for the way my posts will jump from subject to subject for a while, but I'll try my best to break things out into different posts if I can. And because of that, I'll probably have 2 or ( Read more... ) -
I'm back!!!
Whew! Its been a crazy last 10ish months! I spent 6 months traveling weekly between Chicago and Pittsburgh for work. I'm on a special project where I'm basically a beta tester for a new software system we are installing. It kinda sucked being away from the hubby and the pups for so long (I was basically home only from 4pm Friday to 5am Monday). I'm ( Read more... ) -

Went diving yesterday at Haigh Quarry! I had another panic attack while dropping down on in the deep end - we averaged 45 feet or so. The visibility was pretty crappy and even though I could see my fellow divers, I couldn't see the bottom and my throat just felt like it was tightening up and I decided to surface. Kyle surfaced with me and talked me ( Read more... ) -
