    Crazy times at our house!

    Well, I have not been doing a good job of updating the family blog. I really feel like writing about the boring daily stuff will…well…bore people!  None the less, thing have been happening here, so here is the rundown.
    **The Boy got healthy and returned to school. I went back to work and was WAY behind.
    **I [...]

    Feeling old

    OK. To be clear, I realize that I am relatively young, and perhaps this post should be more aptly titled– Life Changes.
    Let me start from the beginning…kind of. I used to enjoy the challenge of shopping– finding a deal, the right fit, etc. Then I had The Boy. I then realized that I had not [...]

    When it rains, it pours?

    Well, things were going smoothly. I use the past tense for a reason. Last week on Thursday, I went to work feeling a little like I was going to be coming down with something and within two hours I was full on sick! I felt like I had been hit by a bus! Of course, [...]

    A New Day, A New Opportunity

    Yesterday ended as horribly as it began, but today started fresh and new. I stayed in bed longer than I had intended, reading a book, but it was worth it. When I finally got up and started moving around, I heard The Boy’s sweet voice calling, “Mommy. Can you please come lay with me.” Of [...]

    After St. Louis was the after party?

    OK. Not really, but I’m running low on title creativity! My flight was…you guessed it…delayed, so I got back to Tulsa a little later than planned. Not a big deal.
    Saturday I went to work– redoing the landscaping. I’m sorry, but I do not have a finished picture. Hmm… anyway… I planted more hostas and some [...]

    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 [...]

    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.
    2010 Prius.  I cheated on the local dealer [...]

    And the madness ensues…

    So. Someday things in my life will run smoothly for more than a week at a time. We have been running around getting things in order to help the summer slow down. In doing so, I have been searching endlessly to find information on when I can purchase my 2010 Prius. They are unavailable in [...]

    A craptastic day.

    Days like today make me want to gouge my eyes out. One. Thing. On. Top. Of. Another. It continually piles up and leaves me wanting to scream at the top of my lungs! I spent the day at work putting out fires, dealing with the incompetence of others…or unwillingness to do their job, answering a [...]

    Another busy week

    Do you recognize the trend? All weeks are busy!  My weeks seem to start off innocently enough, but it goes downhill from there!
    Let me share the excitement first. I bought an iphone. My Q had  been bad. Very bad. It was constantly restarting itself and crashing, slow, and a real mess. Bye bye Q. Hello [...]
