Halloween is one of our favorite times of year. This year, we're a little behind due to my Husband's grandfather passing away, and the fear of what might happen with the union contract vote (It passed. Phew.). Me going back to college didn't help matters either, but now that the one class is finished, things have … Continue reading Re-evaluation…

Leaps and Bounds
In the past two weeks, the Boyo's speech has really taken off. It's like a light clicked on in his brain and he is just taking off in all directions. He knows that I'm mom and that my husband is dad now (I, mean, he always knew who we were but he was calling us both da … Continue reading Leaps and Bounds
Gone Away, Gone Ahead…
This past weekend, my husband's grandfather passed away. We knew it was coming; he was 98 years old and had been having issues on and off for the past couple of years. However, he had been doing pretty well recently, so it was a bit of a shock when we got word that he wasn't doing … Continue reading Gone Away, Gone Ahead…
A little weird…
First off, a very dear friend of mine, Jewel E Leonard, is doing a give away in honor of her new book coming out. You can get the details here! Last week I took the midterm for one of my classes. This week I'm taking a final for another. So, needless to say, I haven't … Continue reading A little weird…
We’re Here to Rescue You
When I wasn't studying, we spent the weekend finally painting the bedroom. It's now a nice solid gray. We're planning on staining the dresser expresso to match my sewing table, and maybe even making a headboard for the bed - which feels a bit foolish since the bed is currently on the floor so Boyo … Continue reading We’re Here to Rescue You
Rewards
About a week or so ago there was a thing that went around on Facebook showing someone's study reward system. Basically they had put candy bars after every chapter - which is pretty clever. Unfortunately since my classes are done online, and I have an ebook instead of a text book, I can't really do that. … Continue reading Rewards
Overwhelmed…
I apologize for not commenting on anyone's posts last week. I meant to, but then I got caught up in school work. All of the classes I'm enrolled in are fast track classes - so they're shorter than your average class. One is 8 weeks long, the other is 5 weeks long. The 8 week … Continue reading Overwhelmed…
It’s Lonely Up Here…
Earlier this summer I mentioned that there might be a strike at Hubby's work in a few months. The union contract is coming up, and so far negotiations between the union and the company are iffy at best. Let's just say there's been lots of drama that has made me nervous enough that I've started … Continue reading It’s Lonely Up Here…
Ugh…
Our modem keeps rebooting itself this morning. I've tried unplugging it from every thing, sending a ping from the cable app on my phone - everything. Finally I admitted defeat and called the cable company, only to have the customer service rep inform me that our modem is possessed. Well, actually she had no clue … Continue reading Ugh…
A Little Break…
Last week, the supervisor who is over Boyo's therapy texted me asking if I wanted to bring Boyo in for an extra appointment. They had a training class that they needed kiddos for, so they can show the new incoming therapists how they do things. I said sure, because it would get us out … Continue reading A Little Break…
