I just came back from two days of camping in the Irish Hills area of southeastern Michigan.  Don't suburbanites go camping anymore?  Seriously, what is up with people at campgrounds around here?  Don't any of them get their hair done or wear makeup?  And where are all the hot guys?  I mean, I know I'm there with my  husband but I'd appreciate a ( Read more... )

I'll start with the cute kid stories.  It was Father's Day and the boys came bounding into our bedroom. I whispered to Brady, "Say 'Happy Father's Day' to Daddy," which he did with enthusiasm.  I then whispered to Aidan the same instructions, but he said in a montone voice "Happy Father's Day."  He then stuck out his bottom lip, furrowed his brow ( Read more... )

My throat is sore.

My in-laws are still in town for another week.

It's kinda cloudy outside.

I am just finishing an 8 1/2 hour shift.

And I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.

I was given Sirus radio for Mother's Day.  As a huge music fan, I am in heaven!

I have mainly been listening to Alt Nation, 1st Wave, The Beat and Boombox.

Hubby has been quizzing me for 2 weeks now when we are listening to 1st Wave, which is the 80's new wave/alternative/dance station.  So far there has only been one song that I was not able to ( Read more... )

Aidan shouted.  I looked at my husband and said, "Well, we should be proud that he's already considering his career options."

Later, Brady drew a picture. It was ( Read more... )

So I had a reading done recently with my friend Patrice. She told me (among many other interesting things) "The past kills the present. Living in the moment allows us to let go of the past and trust the future ( Read more... )

So I saw my best friend Julie today.

Julie: I love your extensions! 
Me: Thanks.
Julie:  Wait....you know who you look like? Spring Break Kelly.
Me: You mean, like, me on Spring Break?
Julie: Yeah.  A little tan, not much makeup, and long hair.  
Me: That was an awesome trip.
Julie: Yeah.
Me: But that was 1993.
Julie: Exactly.
Me:  But you said I look like ( Read more... )

I can't believe the Red Wings' season is over! They don't call Detroit "Hockeytown" for nothing...the whole city will be in mourning today ( Read more... )

I had to work today, so I videotaped Ace Young on the Ellen show. (Don't even get me started on why we are the last family in America to not have TiVo!) Ace sang "Butterflies." When the segment was over, my family had the following conversation:

Aidan: I like that song. He is a good singer. 
Hubby:  **Says nothing, shoots blank look my way.**
Brady: ( Read more... )
