We have had quite a whirlwind week here. Tuesday we had a small electrical fire in our house. Everyone is fine and we don’t have much damage, but it could have been so much worse. The kids were great about evacuating the house quickly and following directions, even though they had been asleep. The fire [...]

It’s Friday! We have had a pretty good week here at home. The kids have been so busy with sports and activities that we have hardly been home. This weekend is so busy for us too with car show parking detail and Aislinn’s birthday that we will not be home much either. It was so [...]

It’s September 30th, wow time flies. The kdis are settling into a new routine, now if I could just get myself there we would all be good. I am not as motivated as I usually am lately. I really need to get moving and cleaning. As usual I have a huge list and a little [...]
Rainy Days

Today it rained all day. There isn’t much to do when it is raining. We babysat for another National Guard wife today. The kids woke up early because of the thunderstorms and since they could not go outside and burn off the excess energy, they are all cranky. That makes me cranky too. I am [...]
A New Day Dawns

Eerily enough, I woke up this morning at 1:30, the same time Eric was supposed to be boarding the shuttle to the Armory from his motel. I slept fitfully from then on. I took my puppies for long walks this morning and boy was it cold! Today was not as bad as I expected, but [...]

Well, today’s the day we bid farewell to Eric. All in all, it was a great day. We attended a picnic in honor of his unit and their deployment, along with Eric’s parents and his brother and sister in law. It was so nice to have some other active participants in the family besides me [...]
Time flies

I woke up and realized this morning that I have two more days to snuggle beside my husband in the early morning minutes before our life claims us. Two more days to reach out and hold his hand or cover his foot with mine while lying in bed. Two more days of smiles and hugs [...]
Rain, Rain, Go Away

It has been raining here since yesterday morning and all of my kids are getting testy. We spent a great evening with my dad, stepmother, brother, sister in law, and my niece and nephew last night. We went out for dinner and spent a few hours with family. Not much mention was made of the [...]
Long Days and Short Nights

Why is it that the nights seem to fly by and the days always start too early? I am up at 5 am and by noon, I am ready for a nap. It does not happen that way, but I am ready. Eric is gone so much in preparation for this deployment. We barely see [...]
