Wow, it’s been five months since I last posted. Grandpa, I’m so sorry! (My Grandpa regularly comments on how much he likes hearing all the family news since they live in AZ). So, here’s the quick update for the three of you who don’t know:
Thanks to el crappo economo, my website business started tanking in [...]
Church softball season has started up and I’m on the team again this year. Two years ago was my first season since high school (and we won’t discuss how long ago that was), and I had soooo much fun. Last year Henry was just a teeny tiny so I sat the season out. Last Thursday [...]
Planting complete! And now, pictures. Must have something to prove (to myself) that I actually did plant a garden. You know, just in case it all dies. I like to think positive.

My green thumb, or the Black Thumb of Death as I like to call it, began its hibernation faze when I was about fifteen and has yet to really recover. This was the year after I planted a huge garden in my longsuffering parents’ backyard and then promptly discovered how much I loathe weeding. But [...]

Today my big project was revamping the [...]

On the other hand, this month is website [...]

Gak! Do you realize that Christmas is two weeks from Thursday? Ack! I was feeling all organized because most of my Christmas shopping is done and almost everything that isn’t for the kids is wrapped. But our cards aren’t done, my letter isn’t written, George hasn’t taken the picture or figured out what he’s going [...]

Happy Thanksgiving! We had ours tonight (Wednesday)
as is our usual custom, and then our van went kablooie on the way home,
which has also been our usual custom as of late. Blurg! Our half an
hour return trip became an hour and a half return trip requiring a mere
two stops to the side of the road to [...]

Hey, guess what? Only six weeks left until Christmas. The panicking all at once may commence now. But not for me! I have got my Christmas gifts spreadsheet all up to date and am working on gift ideas and things, organized my calendar, and am hoping to sit down and write up a December meal [...]
