Last Tuesday was spent visiting nearly every private school in the 2 towns closest to where we're moving. Except for the Catholic ones. We had an appointment with a Lutheran school in the morning & we were quite pleased. Right now, they're in a building that's over 100 years old, but the care they've taken with the facilities is obvious. Everything ( Read more... )

Because we don't have enough on our plates right now and because we are, in fact, certifiably insane, we have finally made the decision to start looking for a new house.

1) Elaborate on your default icon.
That is my baby, Henry - who's actually not a baby anymore, but a nearly 3 year old. The boy LOVES to dance to nearly any kind of music and I call him the Mighty, Mighty Master of Funk.

2) What's your current relationship status?
I have been married for 11 1/2 years. Steve & I married on January 7, 1995

Sounds like the title of a bad movie, huh? Or maybe a not-so-bad movie with Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson and Anna Faris. No, that would be "Reunion Crashers". Which could be a very fun movie.

Something that was wicked cool to me this weekend was the thought that there were people out there in InternetLand who were excitedly anticipating this blog post ( Read more... )
