Musings of an adventurous empty nest mom on everything under the sun.
First, work from home on Thanksgiving week since schools are closed. Work must be done rather than it being pure vacation time off since there is this, oh, minor little trip possibly happening in less than two weeks. Since the weekend was spent out of the house at various football and baseball fields, focus during... Continue Reading →
No pictures. I had to keep score the first game and then it was too foggy to get a decent one the second game. At least they won the first one, but overall it was not a great weekend of baseball. I guess you can only have glory in one sport at a time :-)... Continue Reading →
20-16. They did it AGAIN!! Pulled another victory out of their hats. Our very good buddy #12 who is our kicker as well as plays offense and defense had just an amazing game. Several critial 3rd down catches, a key interception and a couple of great game saving tackles. My #55 was not as sharp... Continue Reading →
At least, I think I did? The auction event went really well. Attendance and gross receipts from the items is significantly higher than last year and perhaps close to one of the best years. I'll finish the detailed analysis tonight, but the down and dirty count at midnight was promising. I even won a couple... Continue Reading →

Interestingly, I share some answers with the blogger who used this as well! 1. What is your motto? Live and let live. 2. What superhuman power would you like to have? Thanks... Continue Reading →
I am sitting here watching bad reality tv and eating sour worms. I have not one creative idea in my brain worth writing about. The silent auction for the baseball club is tomorrow night and my email has been buzzing constantly with last minute updates to the auction item list. It shall be interesting to... Continue Reading →
This will not be a good week for blogging. That is my warning. I said that when I signed up for NaBloPoMo that there would be some posts with very little substance. That will be this week!! Here is a brief idea of why without jinxing things too much. IF the team wins the next... Continue Reading →
On a hectic Monday when there is just to much to process to make a coherent post, there is nothing quite like a leisurely trip to the grocery store with a nicely prepared list and the anticipation of cooking a meal that is one of mine (and SP's) absolute favorites. It's so good that I... Continue Reading →
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 →
The only way out is through The faster we're in the better The only way out is through ultimately The only way out is through The only way we'll feel better The only way out is through ultimately --Alanis (Out is Through) First, I need to share this poem written by my friend Bill Harnsberger...
