Hello, I’m still here! Some of you may have noticed that it has been a long time since I’ve blogged. I don’t have any great excuses, except that I’ve been particularly busy lately – probably just like the rest of you.
My sweet boy CJ turned 6 recently and my Dad and stepmom drove up for [...]

As part of our new “get organized” plan my hubby and I have been looking for an online family calendar that both of us can view and edit. The first one we tried was Google Calendar. We liked it because we both already have Gmail, but my husband had to download all of the events [...]

Today has been a very rainy day in our neck of the woods. It was overcast when I left home this morning, but I didn’t think it was going to rain right away. I had only gone a couple of miles down the road when it started pouring! I was somewhat unprepared when we got to CJ’s school. [...]

We’re not doing anything very exciting this weekend. I think after the move we aren’t ready to go on a vacation. Just being able to stay at home and relax together is all of the fun we need. Our plans include hanging some family photos and getting in a last swim at our neighborhood pool [...]

I am finally in the Eastern part of the USA. It’s been a long, arduous move but we’re mostly settled and learning how to find our way around town. There are lots of beautiful ”country” roads here, but it takes FOREVER to get anywhere.
In this time of high gas prices wouldn’t you know that we’d move to a place where the nearest [...]
