So Says Katie
For some inexplicable reason, we were talking about the kids learning to drive (they're 7 and 4 for newbies) tonight at the dinner table. Andrew exclaimed (and I'm sure his attitude will change), "I don't want to drive". Katie replied excitedly, "When you're old you'll be a daddy and daddies sit in the passenger side ( Read more... ) -
Distracted
This week is going to be rough. I have been so distracted with election coverage, I can barely see straight. I've tried telling myself I'll only read articles a few times a day, but it doesn't stick. So far I haven't forgotten to pick up either kid, make dinner, or handle the basics. Hopefully it won'tget that bad...
Luckily Samhain is coming for me ( Read more... ) -
quick update
Not too much to report. We went up to PA last weekend to see family. Had a great time and drank too much. Drew and I have a cold. He was sent home from school today. I rented a carpet cleaner and shampooed our dining room/living room and basement carpets. I may do upstairs too, but I'm tired and achy. I'm trying not to focus too much on the ( Read more... ) -
11th Anniversary
Today is Mike's and my wedding anniversary. While we've had our ups and downs, I'd marry him again in a heartbeat. We went to dinner at the Green Tree in Leesburg which was great. The food wasn't ground-breaking but instead nicely familiar (flounder stuffed with crab, a beautiful pate with fresh bread, good bottle of Sirah) and he atmosphere was ( Read more... ) -

Update: NoVA PPD
This isn't a full review, because I had to leave at 1pm for my afternoon obligation, but I just wanted to weigh in a little on yesterday's second-annual Pagan Pride Day. It was held at Lee District Park in Alexandria and was lovely. The weather was magnificent (See? The Universe DOES like NoVA best!!! LOL) and it was so terrific to reconnect with ( Read more... ) -

Waitin' For Hanna
It is definitely raining, but we haven't seen much wind yet. The weather picture looks like it should arrive by afternoon. I woke up to give Kate breakfast (who has a bad case of the sniffles) and saw that it wasn't raining (although it did through the night)so I decided to go for a run. By the time I stepped outside, it was pouring... I've never ( Read more... ) -
Update
Not much to report, other than we had a nice Labor Day weekend- spent a lot of time with the neighbors. We're digging a bunch of stumps of dead shrubs which is rather labor intensive (how else to spend Labor Day?). The kids started school today and did fine. It was nice to have a few hours to myself, but I spent the whole thing grocery shopping and ( Read more... )
