  • First day of Preschool!

    Jake had a great first day. 


    He was a little concerned that I would not be in the


    building while he was going to be there.  He waited for his friend to come


    and then all was fine.  In the afternoon he told me he liked his school,


    had a good day, and the teachers did good too!


    No tears were shed, well maybe some watery eyes on my part,


    but overall it was a great first day!

  • When you post a comment on someones blog,


    do you go back to it at a later time


     to see if they responded to your comment? 


    Just wondering.

  • Today my husband can officially turn in his retirement papers. 


     19 years of service in the United States Air Force. 


    WOW! 


    Should he stay or should he go now? (Singing the tune in your head yet?)


    I already know the answer but thought I would get your input.

  • Okay, I am computer illiterate:


    What does it mean to be "tagged"?  I have been tagged many times by other bloggers but what is the significance of it?  Why do it? Does it mean something?  I was just tagged by someone but checked out my site and his and did not see anything about it.  Hmmm...this inquiring mind needs to know!


    Thanks for telling me what Tagged means.  I guess it would have helped if I read the entire message when it says I am tagged! HA.  Now I am in the know!

  • Today I return to work.


    What was I thinking when I told him I would come back? 


    These early hours are for the birds!

  • What Your Playing Cards Tell About Your Future

    Right now you are focused on your internal emotions, including a bit of pain and suffering.

    Your emotions are currently tied to a trusted woman in your life. She is just, and she has your best interests at heart.

    Your closest friend is someone you've had a falling out with recently. If you don't resolve your problems, you will lose the friendship.

    The near future will bring a new competitor or rival - in business or love. This person may seem like a friend at first.

    Beware of petty arguments and quarrels. Don't fight with your friends or family over trivial matters.

  • Some morning entertainment for you...you may need ear plugs.


    Jake is finally coming out of his shell and singing so others can hear him.  He does not perform on demand so this was a rare opportunity that I caught him on tape.  He is singing Bob the Builder, Thomas the Tank Engine and then The Polar Express.  You will have a hard time understanding him at times because he goes so fast, but it is cute.  Unfortunately he did not inherite his father's singing voice.  He sounds just like his Aunts...my sisters...LOL (He did not get that voice from me, for that I am certain of! HA!!)

  • Last night we celebrated my 40th birthday with some good friends of ours.  I am not 40 yet...three days left.  We all had a good time.  Bob planned most of it, I helped out some.  We had quesadillas courtesy of Bob, Bobby Flay that is.  But Bob made them all and they were delicious.  We had tons of left overs but they are better the 2nd, 3rd, 4th day too! 


    Last year some of you may remember that Bob completely forgot my birthday.  He made up for it this year.  He went out and bought lots of decorations.  I figured he just went and got plates and napkins for the cake, which he got at Cold Stone Creamery...yum!  Well I have to remember never to let Bob loose in the Card and Party Store.  He went way overboard.  I am even making him take back some things. He bought me a tiara and a blinking lips asking for kisses since I was 40 (Guess he figured at my age I got to get what I can!)  A sign to put on the garage door, announcing my age (that is going back!)Necklaces with 40 on them. 


     Lots of fun stuff.  Here are some pictures from the evening...

    YUM!!! Need I say more?


    So a special thanks to Bob and my friends for making the upcoming event of turning 40 less intimidating!
