It's been very busy these past weeks...thus, no posting!  Plus, Emily introduced me to Facebook and I have been trying to figure out how it works.  It's kind of a shorthand version of the journal and I feel as though I'm the wrong age group to really "get" it!  How sad!!

We're barreling toward Spring Break -- thank God -- and our annual visit from ( Read more... )

Just a quick post...I've been negligent...because I am reading a good series of books and I'm on the middle one.  I want to get some reading in before bed.  Well, before sleep!

It was a crazy day today at school.  Between the naughty children (threatening to kill one and another...), driving home to take Emily to Musical Theatre practice, a visit ( Read more... )

It always seems to be a Sunday when I have time to realize that I haven't posted in my journal for an age.   I shall repair that omission forthwith ( Read more... )

Happy New Year's Eve!  It's 3:29 so almost time to go pick Em up at work but I thought I'd try to get one more post in for 2006.

It's been a mixed bag this past week or so.  We've had a problem from the last week of school hanging on over the holidays and it's taken a definate turn for the worse today!!  Lots of calls and emails and we have one or ( Read more... )

I am almost ready to take Emily to work -- she's got an 11:00 to 3:00 shift today at the linen store.  Chris is here!  We are going for a drive or something...I'm not sure...and then I have to get home to make the veg for Christmas dinner, because this is our day.  Everyone else is working or busy tomorrow, so we're doing it all tonight.  I'm ( Read more... )

Wow, I can't believe how long it's been since I posted to my journal.  Bad penny, bad penny ( Read more... )

It's been ages since I posted to my journal.  Aw, poor journal!  It's been pretty busy, especially this week!  Monday I took Em and Chris to ballroom dancing.  It's always fun to listen to them talk about their sessions in the car on the way home.  I love those two ( Read more... )

How about a Christmas meme?

1. Hot chocolate or apple cider? Hot chocolate -- cold chocolate -- anything to do with chocolate!

2. Turkey or Ham?  I like both, but if you don't have turkey, it just isn't Christmas.

3. Do you get a Fake or Real Christmas tree?   Only real for me!

4. Decorations on the outside of your house?   I love Christmas lights!  I ( Read more... )

Well, another busy weekend at the Barner household!  We had the Fun Fair on Friday and it was great!  The pirate theme was a great hit and I loved having most of my family there with me!  Em and Chris ran the DDR (which rocked!), Meg painted faces, Travis and Jesse and Rod ran games and I sold light sticks.  Muff and Doug had trouble with ferries ( Read more... )
