THE MESSAGE

Now there's a SMILE! My youngest rug rat, Tao, still wearing his 5:30 AM breakfast!! The big, bad monster was holding their brother hostage. The two super heroes jumped it! With much ferocious growling from the monster, and screams and giggles from the attackers, bodies were thrown here and there,... Sign in to see full entry.

THE VERDICT

‘Just missing the ‘T’ for it to be a complete burnout. ‘ I suspected it before I heard the verdict. I’ve been there, done that. It was one thing that scared the heck out of me. Emotions, body, sight and sound...everything goes numb. The vacation opened the valve that was so carefully kept closed.... Sign in to see full entry.

TO GO, OR NOT TO GO, THAT IS THE QUESTION

Photo courtesy of Photobucket I came this close to not leaving for my Mexican vacation this weekend. None of my doggie-sitters worked out. My son and daughter were showing signs of exasperation. They know me so well. They were thinking that if I was worried about the dogs, I would NOT have a good... Sign in to see full entry.

TIME-OUT...PRECIOUS!

The boys relaxing on the beige love seat. Can you find my space?

Grump was somehow muddled in with us, my armload of folded towels was scattered all over the floor, and it frightened the wits out of me... Sign in to see full entry.
