Though there was a light frost last night and we all shivered in our sleep because it never occurred to me to turn the heat back on, today turned out to be a gorgeous day. Perfect for celebrating. So celebrate we did. Today was our Palm Sunday. It was Easter for the rest of my family. So after a very boisterous and exciting liturgy and palm ( Read more... ) -

I'm not going to be posting on LJ anymore. I am still reading posts, but I realize that if I don't comment my friendships on here will probably die. That is why I'm inviting anyone who reads me here to friend me on Facebook. If you don't know my name, ask in a PM. If you do friend me, make sure you tell me who you are on here ( Read more... ) -

I don't know if I can type all that I want to say on this phone, but Luci won't let me escape to the basement and the real computer until she is asleep. Most of the time I'm asleep before she is so I don't get computer time anymore. Just iPhone time throughout the day. See this is why I want an iPad. Or maybe I just need to figure out a place ( Read more... ) -

Thanksgiving weekend was strange...but good in its own way. I was childless, as Brad was in town so I gave him the long weekend without interference. I had a lot of all adult time. The food was wonderful. My sister and I did all the cooking as my mother had another surgery last Monday (there was another small tumor they discovered). We did good ( Read more... ) -

Zoe's first gymnastics meet was today. It was a small meet and it was low key and it was perfect for a first time competing. She did really well. The best part was that even though she totally messed up the vault, her best event, and I fully expected that would be the end of it for her, she screwed up her courage and marched right over to the ( Read more... )
