Queen of Rambles

Well hell. No wonder I never get comments over here anymore. I just found a bunch of entries that I thought were published in my draft file. ____ Can you stand a sweet, gooey Erik story? He’s still a hellion, but he does have his good moments. Today we were at the Romp ‘n Roll [...]

I have a swollen taste bud. If you’re on FB you already know that, but it is worth repeating since that’s the only thing of note in my life today. I used the power of the internet to find a cure, but the only thing that seems to help is either pulling it out with [...]

Ed note: At the moment I am really confused about my blog. It works in the morning, but by mid-afternoon it is down. Getting so, so, so tired of this. At least if you use a feed reader you get to read, if not comment. _____ Most of you probably remember the house down the [...]

*Note to self: don’t let Erik eat any more FiberOne granola bars. Apparently he doesn’t need any extra fiber. Poor guy has a serious problem tonight. I hope he is able to sleep through the night without any disturbances. *You remember that ill-fated quilt round robin I joined? One lady in our group actually finished [...]

Does anyone feel like the Grim Reaper has been hanging around way too long? Between myself, real life people and people in the computer, I know at least six people who have lost a grandparent in the past two months and at least two more who are just waiting for the end. The wait is [...]

Yes, it’s an odd time of year for a graduation ceremony. None the less, we had ourselves a celebration yesterday afternoon. When you make up your own school you can follow any calendar you want. Our school year ran from March 2008-September 2009. We’re weirdos. The kids all put on a show for us, Erik [...]

I finally managed to download all the various programs I need for my pictures and then upload said pictures, so if you are interested in seeing what we did this weekend you can check out THE PHOTO SET. Jojo, there is a picture in that set specifically for you. Can you find it? I am [...]

I’m coming to you live from my new computer! You probably won’t notice a difference, but I sure do. I can’t find anything, the keyboard is laid out a bit differently and I can’t get all my e-mail addresses to work. But the screen is attached! I always hate getting a new computer set up. [...]

We made it home today after a long, long drive. It didn’t take any longer than the drive over to Ohio, but it felt like we were never going to get home. The clock kept ticking and my butt kept going numb, but the miles just wouldn’t turn over. I guess they eventually did, since [...]

What a day, what a day. Five in the morning is no a pleasant wake-up time for mommy or son. Erik usually sleeps until 9, which is lovely and wonderful and makes me forget the two years of complete sleep deprivation. I had a playdate at our local park, so I had to get a [...]
