"Ice, Ice, Baby!"

The night before last we had our first tornado warning of the season here. Being from Maine, the kids and I are still not used to this. Everytime the sirens went off (high wind warnings, not actual tornado sightings in our area), they would jump on the couch and snuggle up to me in a panic. Then the... Sign in to see full entry.

Is it Monday yet? LOL...

I've had a rough couple of days. Gabby has been cranky to the point of driving me over the edge. I had a bit of a meltdown last night when she kept waking up. I am 97% positive she has an ear infection, so I called the doctor to make an appointment. They called me a few minutes ago to cancel her... Sign in to see full entry.

Family day! What a fun time!

It is a little past 11:00 AM, and we're having a very lazy, unproductive day, lol. And you know what? I'm enjoying every blessed minute of it! The kids are mellow, they are cooperative and considerate to each other (for a chage, lol!!), and are helping me by doing little chores here and there so I... Sign in to see full entry.

What is that? Oh, it's QUIET! LOL

Ahhhh... It's just about 11:00 PM, and I think this is the first moment it's been quiet all day, lol. I guess it just never occurred to me that since my home is the after school hang-out spot, that it would also become the school vacation all day hang-out spot! I've loved every minute of it,...

A moment of silence for Avalanche :(

It was a very sad day last week, when Caulin and Marcus called me on my cell phone as I headed for the corner store to buy milk. I answered the phone and could barely understand Marcus as he sobbed, "Avalanche is DEAD!" Unfortunately, this time, the diagnosis was correct. Avalanche enjoyed the boys'...

Um... catching up, I guess, LOL

I'm sitting at my desktop for a change, with a cup of coffee and a housefull of kids. The boys' best friends both spent the night, and now we have Nerf dart guns galore headed out the door into the blustering 30 degree weather... each child - even the demon herself! - has a gun and soft dart...

Watching my children grow, learn, live, laugh and love!

Every day I thank God for giving me my kids. They are truly miracles and my pride and joy - particularly when doctors told me for over ten years prior to Caulin's birth I couldn't have ANY kids... hmmm... methinks they were wrong, LOL. I love to watch them interact when they think I'm not looking. I... Sign in to see full entry.

The Magic Couch

Ah! It's good to be back, lol. I know it's been awhile, but things have been a little crazy, as usual... at least for a change it's been a GOOD crazy! My doctors finally gave me a diagnosis and have put me on medication that I swear is a miracle drug. Within twenty-four hours of my first dose, my... Sign in to see full entry.

Friday the 13th struck Lady Ghost... and seems to have lingered!

LOL, I really had positive thoughts and plans for Friday, despite it being Friday the 13th! I should have known better... I finally had my appointment with the rheumatologist, which I'd been waiting for since November. I got the kids off to school and daycare, made sure all my paperwork for the...

The score: Boys - 0; Mom - 4+; Gabby - 2; but the lawn took the trophy!

I can't believe it's only Tuesday! The kids have been great, and (knock on wood) I was finally feeling well enough to PLAY with them! I was so excited. We played tackle football with our next door neighbor, Rona, and she and I were kicking butt, lol. The boys kept thinking they could take out their... Sign in to see full entry.
