Musings of an adventurous empty nest mom on everything under the sun.
This weekend a dear friend from DailyKos sent me an email letting me know he had enjoyed my post on the hike that SportsBoy and I took. Of course he enjoyed it - I took him on the same hike when he was out here to visit last year! More than that though, Eddie C... Continue Reading →
All right ladies - I am calling you out! We all jumped into this blogging thing together a couple of years ago (some of you had to be dragged into it, I know) and I think we've all had quite a bit of fun right? We've all made new friends, perhaps dragged other friends in and... Continue Reading →
Here's my problem: I would probably tell her yes! Really! I have some ridiculous, stubborn part of my brain that will not let me lie. Even when I *should*. Because of that I end up in some situations being rather short tempered and gruff with people who do NOT deserve that. To Alto2 and Ramblingmom... Continue Reading →
I've loaded all of the Seattle pictures onto my Flickr page for August Moms Gatherings. Seattle starts at the photo I posted here from the Phoenix airport.

Also loved seeing the Arizona Diamondbacks stadium (the BOB) from the air. I think I also saw a spring... Continue Reading →
I am off to see August moms. Including, but not limited to, some of those who blog: LSM Alto2 Rambling Mom Doc Thelma (private) - A reunion virgin! and Squib my very bestest roommate friend. We will have great food and conversation interspersed with some museum and sightseeing and shopping time. Camera batteries are charged.... Continue Reading →
All that matters today - is that it is STILL Jeopardy day! (I apologize in advance to my non-august mom readers as this post will make very little sense, but just rest assured that the gals are all a twitter today and we are so proud of our friend.) I can't believe how well she... Continue Reading →

The bird of the weekend for me - really the only truly interesting one I saw - Yellow Crowned Night Heron. One was staring down at us from a tree as we took the Riverwalk Boat Tour in San Antonio. Well, the weekend was everything I needed. Truly fabulous conversation. Lots of laughs. Entirely too... Continue Reading →
