Conversation

This is an exact transcription of a conversation between my husband and our two year old…..
Dad: Everyone needs to learn that when they take the last banana, to throw away the packaging
Lincoln: Ut up, Dad.  (yes, I know…we have older kids)
Dad: What?!  Did you just tell me to shut up?!
Lincoln: yeah, I did
Dad: I’m gonna [...]



Glimpses of the Former Me

Before I started working full time, I was the queen of multi-tasking and volunteering and being all around involved….in everything.
I was very active in the PTO, Vice President to be exact, I was at the school constantly to volunteer for everything and anything, I was the team mom for Chuckie’s football team, I was running around [...]



Some Great Local Fundraiser Events Coming Up

There are a few things that I do each year to help raise funds for various charities or foundations and as the year is progressing, the calendar of events is starting to fill up.
Most of the events that we do are for the March of Dimes.  We have a family team that we are a [...]



Getting a Reaction

Well, I didn’t quite expect all the responses from my last post but I do appreciate the support that you all gave me! 
My supervisor is back to work after having two days off and she was sick.  She came to me this morning and said, “I tried to play hookie and karma got me and [...]



Where Do I Go From Here

So many changes have happened at work.  The work itself is still the same, however, the supervisor (she calls herself the manager so I’m not sure which it is) has changed in so many ways. 
She is beginning to drive me a little nuts.  Yes, I realize that she could find this post and beat the [...]



Date Night!

My birthday was on Tuesday, but because it was during the week and I was working hard all week, we decided that we would go out tonight instead to celebrate. 
We are going out, just the two of us to have a bite to eat and a few drinks.  I cannot wait.  I am currently trying [...]



I need a vacation

That is an understatement.  I really need a getaway and preferrably without the kids.  It’s not the kids that I am trying to get away from, but it would allow me to relax and really unwind. 
Work has been very busy lately and I am just exhausted! I have been getting very little sleep…I hate having [...]



Another Review Post and My Spot

I have another review that I did posted over at the Penny Pinching Diva site!  I am so excited to have this experience and exposure.  I just love Shynea and being a part of her creativity and talent. 
She also has a page for the reviewers.  You can see that here.
I hope to continue with helping [...]



Red

I have been looking for a new coat.  I have always wanted a nice peacoat but never have been lucky ennough to find one at a price I was willing to pay.  Yes, I am frugal when it comes to clothing.  I have to be. 
Anyway, Chuck got me a gift card for American Eagle Outfitters [...]



Love and Basketball

I love that movie, by the way.  If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend it. 
Anyway, Chuckie is into his basketball season and he is doing okay.  Not as well as last year but it is still early on and he has a different coach.  One that isn’t as aggressive as last year. 
He had a basketball [...]
