    St. Louis

    Honestly, I did not take many pictures of St. Louis. Like none. Ha ha. I did, however, meet up with a basketball wife that I had been chatting with online for over a year! I also was able to meet her family and hold their six week old baby. OK. I also helped a bit [...]

    How has a month past without a post?

    I wrote a bit about why I have not been blogging here, so I won’t rehash it all. I am going to try to catch up and backdate the posts for the past month, so if you do not use a reader, you might have to do a bit of clicking. I’ll try to do [...]

    June 13th in more words than Twitter allows

    I had a week back in Tulsa before I needed to leave for work again. Crazy how June disappeared as quickly as May! Before I left again, Kevin and I snuck in a date that included dinner at ITR and an amazing chocolate euphoria shortcake style dessert. Oh yes, and grocery shopping. OK, and a [...]

    Where did May go?

    After we returned from Minnesota, we had the rest of the week (Wednesday through Saturday) to get caught up before I went to Davis, California for a week of training. I have to admit. I REALLY enjoy Davis. Everything about the town is blissful to me.  While there, Kevin sent me fun pictures of The [...]

    Minnesota by Sheri

    As many of you know, my step-mom is a very talented and dedicated photographer. I am timid to continually try photographers in Tulsa, because I am so used to and comfortable with Sheri’s style and methods of capturing excellent images. May in Minnesota was no different. Stunning images all around! Hopefully, I can get the [...]

    Minnesota 2009

    (slowly but surely playing catch up)
    Back in May, we went to Minnesota for a week– flying up on Thursday, heading home on Tuesday. It was a lot of fun, and we were able to spend a few days with Rose and Dennis and then a few days at my Dad and Sheri’s. In between, we [...]

    And the winner is?

    Well, we won and lost.
    The Boy will start Riverfield on the 17th of June. I can’t remember if I posted that or not, but I am very pleased!
    The Envoy is fixed. Almost $450 and a new starter later. Whatever. It drives and is paid for– headaches and all.

    An irregularily scheduled time out

    As some of you know and others do not, I have been busy. That is not news in and of itself, but I thought I would share what I have been up to. I will continue to write about the basketwife “stuff,” but that will probably have to wait until AFTER I go before my [...]

    Dealing with Life Changing Events from both sides of the pond: Setbacks

    In part six, Erin discussed what Dr. Ortiz refers to as “life changing events: the last to know” and “setbacks.”  I am going to write about these separately, because I have a lot to say.
    First– setbacks.

    “Setbacks in professional sports may include injuries (i.e., severe or chronic), getting cut from the team, getting [...]

    Family Health

    Kevin called bright and early this morning to tell me that the doctor says he has a bad contusion. Yes, a bruise.  He is to ice, rest, and take anti-inflammation medication. Hopefully the swelling will go down quickly and he can play on Monday!
    My cold appears to be correcting itself. I took yesterday afternoon off, [...]
