Knee feels totally fine after a 2 hour practice yesterday. We are ready to GO! Final season of pop warner - can you believe it?
NN09 – Last one, I promise – plus football injury :-(
I shall wrap up by saying - thanks for the great party Markos! The Dkos group hosted a fabulous party in a freakin' church! Seriously, a church was converted to a bar and it was pretty awesome. A live band, some damn funny entertainment and FREE DRINKS for 2 whole hours! Suh weet! I danced... Continue Reading →
Back in the saddle again
Strap yourself in. Sit down. Hang on. Here we go again. There is a teenager in my house again. A newly minted one. A much different one from the first one to be sure. For instance, the first one actually started out as a quite a good driver. In fact, he IS...as long as he... Continue Reading →

Can you tell I am slightly anxious to get this off my task list? It was the one thing I *did* finish... Continue Reading →
I know there’s something going on
In preparation to write a diary for Daily Kos (cue scary music), I need to drain my brain first. Happy 4th of July!!

Summer project – surprise pictures
