My youngest daughter learned a valuable lesson today. She learned that it’s not always ok to say everything you think and feel whenever you think and feel it. Especially not on myspace. Sometimes it’s best to keep things to yourself or to let it sit for a while and gain perspective before putting it out […]
Today is my niece Megan’s birthday. She would have been 22 years old this year.
I think this is one of my all time favorite photos of J. - she’s wearing the black shirt. She’s posing with my 13 yr old niece. They were trying on hats and modeling at the quick shop where we always stop when driving on the turnpike late last Friday night coming back home from […]
Youngest daughter: Mom, I’m not supposed to be this big in the area. This padded bra really works!
The area. Ha! She’s twelve. I had a hard time keeping a straight face when she said that a few minutes ago.
Tonight, I looked at some of Mom’s photos from her trip. One of my favorites was from when she was in Santorini, Greece. It looks a lot like the top photo on this guide about traveling to Santorini that I found. Mom’s photo has a bush with hot pink/almost red flowers on the side of […]
Mom is home from her three week trip to Europe. Her plane landed last night. She and Dad got home in the wee hours this morning. I’m so glad she’s home and cannot wait to hear about her adventures and see the photos. She slept most of the day today and is usually jet-lagged […]
Today is the seven year anniversary of my divorce. I tend to look at today as the day my Do-Over began, a happy day, a day of freedom.
YIPPEE! Seven years. WOO HOO!
Happy Anniversary to me!
You know, I didn’t always see this day as a happy day. My view has changed over the past […]
My daughters are at the Jonas Brothers concert right now. They’ve been so cute counting down the days and the hours for months. They’ve got new clothes, sparkly belts, big earrings, shiny lip gloss, new cell phones, borrowed binoculars, my camera and huge, happy smiles.
Since I dropped them off, they’ve called about 5 times. They […]
Today I’ll be driving 13 year old son to church camp. It’s the very camp my sisters and I went to when we were kids, Mountain Fork Christian Camp at Beaver’s Bend State Park. It’s a 4 hour drive each way to camp, so we’ve got a long day ahead.
I’m […]
Today would have been my maternal grandfather’s 98th birthday. He was born on the same day that our hometown (Broken Bow, Oklahoma) became a town, July 3, 1910.
I remember celebrating his birthdays through my childhood. We always had a great time with birthday cake, watermelon, good food and fireworks. He was a fun-spirited, hard-working, loving man.
He died 10 years ago […]
