I forgot that I promised a picture! Dallas mom on the left with her daughter, me in the middle and K4mom on the right. We had a lovely evening of shopping at Downtown Disney and then dinner at the Wolfgang Puck Express.

A health nut?!
In the last 20 years I have dedicated myself to healthier eating habits probably about 25 times. not to lose weight - I am blessed with genetically high metabolism so it's never been a weight issue. It's been more just for the benefit of being more fit, in shape and healthy. Having more steady energy... Continue Reading →
Nothing much
The cat's favorite place in the morning. In front of a window to the backyard, preferably open. I tried to catch both Chip and Amber on the back of the sofa this morning, but Chip was too fast! Amber is getting big. I need to get her to the vet again and certainly get Chip... Continue Reading →
Days three and four – home at last!
Ooof - hard to sit through sessions when you only had 5.5 hours of sleep! Thank heavens I didn't really drink much Monday night so I was only tired, but still! Awesome sessions though! Also saw some white ibis and swallow tailed kites (those are cool birds!). Bailed on the Hootie concert though - just... Continue Reading →

An essay on community
In my life currently I have both real and internet communities that I belong to. It's hard to believe that prior to DS2's birth, I pretty much had none! Back in the late 80s/early 90s when DS1 was in elementary school, I was pretty much on my own with him. Ex#1 was totally unreliable and... Continue Reading →

Will March23rd at 10:45am work for you?"Me: "Yes, that is fine."Receptionist: "Okie Dokie. Which phone number is the best... Continue Reading →
Checklist completed for today
Today was a rare day when I actually did everything I planned on doing in my head! I was awake at 4:00am thanks to the cats and a developing sinus headache. Took some Claritin and closed the door on the cats and went back to sleep until 6:30 when the sound of the fur balls... Continue Reading →
