Musings of an adventurous empty nest mom on everything under the sun.
Why is this a spoiled cat? Because every time she does something cute (such as sit in this box of manila envelopes that I was using), I run for the camera to record the moment. Not once was I like that with the boys when they were babies! Ok, I didn't have a digital camera... Continue Reading →
dear marcus you rocked my world -- alanis morissette (Unsent) Yes, that really is a line from a song of hers. As those who know me will understand, it is yet another example of her writing being so damn perfect for me! Now, in the interest of full disclosure, here is the full stanza, but...

To follow up on an earlier post: I lost - but then I won! Both guys did nothing that day (figures), but then, they both made appointments the next day and MM already saw his PCP yesterday and got his referral. SP sees his PCP on 9/6. Progress! So I have something new to bitch... Continue Reading →
Three weeks straight with what was probably the most hectic possible schedule with SportsBoy! Whew! First day of school tomorrow and he also returns to his dad for a week.

SportsBoy saw her up there walking the length of it this morning and then tonight she was up there again, just relaxing. Scares the crap out of the humans in... Continue Reading →
