"What if your current challenge is a call to action, a rallying cry that will prepare you for the next phase?" I read this today...and it's fitting. Last night, after going to bed, DH and I talked for a long time. I love this man. I love that he is supportive

It's Friday night and we're so boring! It's the weekend - a kid free one at that and here we are...no plans as usual and a list of responsibilities to accomplish since there's never enough time during the week. DH is in the kitchen whipping up blueberry

Project: Home Office Organization I'm taking a break. I swear I've re-arranged furniture 20 times. Here's a picture of what's going on. Of course, ignore the plywood floors (more expensive future project) and lack of curtains (more sewing). One step at

Being an ‘older’ woman on The Nest (I HATE that I can say that!), I sometimes get a little envious that my peers are so much younger. Something hit me today and I have no idea where it came from. Maybe it’s my age, stemming from feelings of being a few

I've been keeping busy, but have a few minutes before taking DD to tennis & thought I'd post an update: My mom is doing well! She's home and feeling better and just scared enough that she isn't overdoing it...thank goodness. Of course, now with her

My DH drives me crazy. Where are his flip flops? I swear...if he only had a brain! Which brought me to researching past blog posts to count the number of times his ACCUSATIONS DIRECTED AT INNOCENT ME have been a topic of discussion. I lost count. But

Just waiting on DH to get home - we're kid free! Of course I started AF last night and have major cramps. I feel a little better after my nap and want to go see my mom at the hospital, but only for a few minutes. I know she's exhausted from all of the

My mom is doing well! A huge relief. I've never experienced anything so frightening. After a night of not sleeping, I couldn't sleep in either. So I got up and went to visit my mom. She was good, but tired. Her DH spent the night in the chair by her bed

I'm a nervous wreck. My mom had a heart attack tonight. I've never been so scared or so thankful that my prayer was answered. She's okay. DH couldn't be with me...he was dealing with my daughter's inconsiderate bad-timing drama for me. (I'm in the middle

On my way to bed and noticed my dog turned in early tonight! Doesn't she look comfy-cozy? I had to share her picture! She looks like a pig...but she's really a miniature doxie! lol And no...she's not expecting! Good night! Sweet dreams!

Someone emailed me this today...so, something different to comment on if you're bored. I am. So I used the "SH" sound to do mine. Or so I tried. It's harder than it looks. Use the 1st letter of your name to answer each of the following...*they have to

Another crazy day. Of course. Another manager is on vacation and didn't do something required and necessary for the opening of a new medical group today - making us look unprepared, so a lot of cleaning up after someone else. My boss was very disappointed

Okay...this is a really bad picture of me and my daughter - we usually look better - but it's been long day & a Monday at that, so cut us a break! We have a family blog which members of the family update on occasion since some of us are in PA, some

Part I: No...I'm not talking about me this time! lol I knew I was going to be an aunt again (my brother's first) - but today I found out I'm going to have a niece! Hurray! I don't have a niece! I have 2 nephews! And I'm always at a complete loss on what

While waiting in the parking lot of the flea market to meet my mom, I witnessed a car accident and went running over to help. Poor little old man pulled out in front of a girl speeding. I've never seen a car accident and it was a little shaky. I ran over

Not a day of rest. Major cleaning day since there's an extra day this weekend. Not fun...and as you can tell, I'm procrastinating a little by blogging instead of actually diving into my list of things to do. All in good time. :) I survived DH's family

Am I feeling a migraine coming on? Are my nerves making my stomach flop? We're heading to DH's aunt's retirement party/family reunion/4th of July picnic. DH isn't as close to his family as I am to mine and we rarely see his family, which is why when we

Our dapple dachshund, Niski, LOVES her new bed & blankie. She keeps hopping around, snuggling and burrowing...which led to panting & the picture with her tongue hanging out! Doesn't she look happy?

That's actually what my mom said to me today...perhaps I was switched at birth because I wasn't brave enough to call in sick today to join the rest of my family at her place for swimming. They all happen to be off today. How could I call off and come
