THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME . . .

Husband and I are finally home after four days of traveling to Chicago and Wisconsin. As we dragged our bags into the master bedroom. I looked out the window at the pond in the distance surrounded by the vibrant orange and red hues of fall. "No matter where we've traveled, there's no better view... Sign in to see full entry.

WE'RE NOT IN KANSAS ANY MORE . . .

The farm is a haven from the outside world. The house sets over 1600 feet from the road. The closest houses are at least that far away. We can easily reach the city in 20 minutes but why would we want to? Now we're a few hundred miles away in a rather large metropolitan city. On the way to our kids'... Sign in to see full entry.

IT'S BEEN AN UNUSUAL MORNING SO FAR . . .

This morning started early, 4:30 a.m. I thought I had to take Husband to pick up his truck early this morning so I got up, showered, dressed and prepared for the day. He neglected to tell me that we had to wait for the dealership to call first. As soon as I returned home, the phone rang. It was the... Sign in to see full entry.

NOW FOR THE REST OF THE STORY RE NEW MAC COMPUTERS

Having all the latest technology is wonderful. We can communicate faster and farther than ever before. We can get lost for hours in the vortex of the internet that sucks us in, unwilling victims of the massive amount of information in the world. At this moment, Husband, Son and I are all in the same... Sign in to see full entry.

Too Tired but Doing It Anyway

So here I sit so tired I'm almost blind and yet I'm playing on this silly MacBook! Husband & I have set up iChat accounts in the hopes that the children who live thousands of miles away from us will someday be able to video conference with us. Perhaps then they won't feel so far away. * * * The... Sign in to see full entry.

WHAT HAVE WE DONE?

Yesterday morning after making two payments on a loan that I co-signed for, I let Youngest Son, 23, know that he couldn't just lay around the house for two months driving our cars, eating our food and watching our DVDs until he left for the Marines. It would be nice if he would do something to be... Sign in to see full entry.

P.S. ABOUT THOSE TYPOS

This is total rationalization and excuse making: Sometimes I go back and read the post from yesterday and feel horrible about any mistakes I find. My excuse? Time is short. Perfection has gone out the window. Do you think the Universe replies to my typos? Sign in to see full entry.

ARE YOU AN APPLE USER OR A PC USER?????

Last night Husband and I attended a private viewing of a documentary about Apple computers. One of my friends has spent two years creating this film. It was surprisingly good. My friend has also been giving me the Apple sales pitch (along with No. 2 Son) about how much better Apple is than a PC.... Sign in to see full entry.

WAS THIS A COSMIC POSTCARD?

For the past few months, I've been toying around with the idea of going back to school for a BA in psychology. Obtaining that degree was a part of my plan a couple of years ago. Life interceded and I got distracted. This society honors degrees, certificates and licenses. Although I have a degree, a... Sign in to see full entry.
