Musings of an adventurous empty nest mom on everything under the sun.
Yes, that is a tad overly dramatic but..... Flashback to 2 years ago and there was a horrendous rainy, cold windy JV game at the home field when 17 wore #88 and his team was getting pushed around rather liberally and players were dropping like flies after questionably legal/illegal hits, That included one on him...

Two fantastic dinner recipes to share. One from Dinosaurs Can't Eat Pizza and one from the Food Network. Both absolutely worth the effort - which, given my standards as you all should know by now - is very minimal! I ended up making this twice one week because the first time I made a 1/2...

Back in the Spring when I took on the Football Co-Liaison task I pretty much stepped away from everything else not related to my day job or taking care of things at home. I stopped slowed down and then entirely stopped writing for Blogmutt (which I will return to in December) and I had to... Continue Reading →
Remember at the beginning of the year when there may have been some grumbling (mostly from me, a little from 17) about lack of playing time? 17 quite frankly displayed a lot of maturity accepting his role - as he reminded me when I would lament on the situation - he had not really played...

What matters is that the team won it's second game 44-9. It was close for the 1st quarter, but then our offense found it's groove, This was a team the Falcons lost to last year 2-0. Yes, that score is correct. A safety after a muffed punt attempt resulted in the only score. So, we... Continue Reading →
All good ones! I was finally able to arrange for the disposal of an oversized, hand me down and out of shape set of furniture in my living room. The love seat and chair were rarely both in use and the love seat would only be in use if both 17 and I were watching... Continue Reading →
Lot's of reasons to love this game. As much fun as home games are, away games = no work for the liaisons. So I could be completely focused on my office space moving two flights up from the basement to the 1st floor this week without distraction. Sarah and I didn't have to talk/text every day...

Not much to say - defensive struggle as noted in the paper. What was fun for me was seeing so many friends from the area come out including 18's pop warner coach. He still didn't play much - that double edged sword right since I don't want him to get hurt, but I want him... Continue Reading →
These random thoughts will be a tad deeper than the last post 🙂 Recently on twitter I witnessed an incredibly reasonable discussion between a believer in God and a non-believer. It centered around the believer trying to understand where the non-believer goes to find answers to life's mysteries and, then specifically, on where he gets... Continue Reading →
I have missed writing so much! In any form, be it here in journal format, the assigned writing I did for the MOOC course I took in the Spring, or the more structured blog posts submitted on Blogmutt. Heck, I don’t even get to tweet in those little 140 character bursts of thought hardly at... Continue Reading →
