I Gotta Feeling

March 7, 2010

Monday morning marks the beginning of spring break.  Which equates to two full weeks of sleeping well past 5:45.  And nary a packed lunch in sight. {cue the angel chorus}. We spent the weekend with Gram.  I just adore her.  That’s all there is to say about that. The seven of us took in the [...]

Recovered. {Fingers Crossed}

February 28, 2010

There’s been a constant chorus of nose blowing in our house. And coughing.  Hacking up lungs and whatnot. Nose-blowing and coughing and lungs.  Intermittently. For days.  And days.

When It Rains…

November 11, 2009

Oh friends.  It’s been one of those weeks.  And the bad news is that it’s only halfway through. Monday brought with it a disappointing discovery on the child-rearing front. And then certain events on Tuesday night led to a very unpleasant disciplinary discussion. Wednesday was supposed to be a good day.  A no school, sleep-in [...]

Tossed Salad Anyone?

August 30, 2009

What.  A. Weekend. Whew. It was Jeff’s off Friday which was awesome (as always) because we had lunch at our numero uno Mexican restaurant up in the fancy shmancy part of town. Saturday was kind of a downer though.  It may have had something to do with the birthday party we took Kennedy to.  I [...]
