Was it just me?

Friday, 28 August 2009 3:54 P GMT-06
Had a situation last night that upset me greatly.  My Elder came home from her golf practice and told me that someone had said the following to her and her teammate. "Having seen your scores in the paper, you guys need to talk less and prac

I don't care which side of the Health Care discussion you are on, please read.

This is the guy who is pushing the issue from the White House angle. Do you want this guy in charge of the decision whether you live or die?   

Our little guy is growing up!

And he's still as cute as the day we brought him home. iNDy turns 1 today, or 7 depending if you're a dog reading this. We have nothing more planned than sleeping the day away with a bike ride later. Me riding, him running. Thanks Kristie for

There isn't much time left, please considering being a part

The 2,996 Project is a way for me to remember the events of 9/11 and give tribute to one of the victims of that terrible day. Won't you consider being a part of this.  Considering that our sitting President seems to want to ignore the traged

I can't take it anymore!

What's that I can't take anymore?  This. All that beating and banging is for a good cause, but it just is hard to take. Good thing we only have a bit more to get up. The sub floor isn't coming up as easily as the tile did. And why is

We have achieved a breakthrough

Hubster took the dog for a walk the other night. When he returned home he told me he had actually ridden his bike while walking the dog. I have wanted to try this many times, but due to a past injury, sustained while trying that trick with my Husky*,

Photos, Proof for Barbara

And maybe proof for me, that I didn't go far enough. I did the ending triangles on Lady E yesterday. So I thought I would document what size it is unblocked, compared to my blocked Lady E. And I think I should have gone to the end of the skein. S

Sports Wrap Up

Tuesday, 18 August 2009 1:10 P GMT-06
Saturday was a busy sports day. Elder had to look for her name in the paper, since she had the best score on her team. Only, the coach responsible for getting the names in the paper didn't put down hers! She was sad. But it doesn't negate her

Almost done

My hectic week is winding down. I survived 2 mornings of helping at school, 2 soccer practices (the 3rd one I had help on), 4 golf practices, 2 knitting opportunities, 1 golf match, and endless errands. Today will see the 1st soccer game and making s

I can refrain no longer

I have kept silent about the Health Scare debate going on, which I am sure you are glad of, because I have not been able to discern just what either party is trying to accomplish. Not being versed in political speak I falter, reading the bills being

It's done

They are gone. One won't be back for 8 hours, the other, I have no clue when she will be back. I did the first time drop off at her high school today. And the Younger went ahead and jumped out there too. She went to stand in a group of her neighb

Questions

Sunday, 9 August 2009 6:45 P GMT-06
Some that I am asking myself these days: Sanity. Am I going crazy, or is it a life change? Panic Attacks. Really? Do I have to go through this again?Knitting. Am I in a slump, or is something else? Refer to the first item. Blogging. Am I re

Who me? Nervous?

Tuesday, 4 August 2009 3:25 P GMT-06
What do I have to be nervous about, it can't be that bad. Who am I kidding, I am terrified! Why? Because tomorrow my Elder is going to be thrown to the wolves. She has her first golf match, with only 1 summer of lessons behind her. Eek! Who me? S

My life just got completely screwy

Monday, 3 August 2009 9:30 P GMT-06
Younger is playing soccer on the Fall League 6th-8th grade team. Practices are 6:00 pm most weeknights.  Elder just started playing golf and is now on the High School Golf team. Her practices are 6:00 pm EVERY weeknight.  I have been on the

Wow, where did July go?

I would say I blinked and missed it, but my eyes were wide open. So, are you here to see the progress I made in my knitting? Well, just refer back to the photos I showed you 2 weeks ago. Cause there wasn't much progress made. I did do a few more
