Thanks for all the wonderful comments on the blog yesterday and on Facebook for Hannah’s 21st birthday!  She had school all day, so I talked to her briefly before she left for school, then didn’t talk to her again until I left work at five when she was on her way home. I asked what she was going to do for dinner, and she said...

I was texting back and forth with Hannah yesterday, and on one text I said “I love you almost 21 year old!!!”  She replied “isn’t it weird that you have been a parent for 21 years??!!” And the answer is yes!  I have no idea how she went from being born to turning 21 so fast.   Her actually due date was March 20, the day...

By the time I normally left for work yesterday, the snow was still coming down really lightly, so I ended up going in.  All the schools were closed so the traffic actually wasn’t too bad. My SIL went to the Entenmann’s outlet over the weekend.  I bought a package of whole wheat Arnold thins – so I had an egg white, spinach and cheese sammie...

More snow is coming our way.  I am on the fence about whether or not to drive into work.  It’s 7:00 a.m. now, the snow is light, but we could get 1 to 2 inches an hour by 12:30.  I guess we’ll see in an hour how it plays out! Breakfast was a breakfast burrito – one tablespoon light cream cheese, 2 tablespoons refried beans...

We have yet another winter storm watch this week.  Our area could get up to six inches of snow.  I was happy that I braved the chilly 27 degree temps on Saturday and ran outside. Um, I forget how hilly my neighborhood is when you are not in a car!  Much like Shelley, it takes me a while to get into my running groove, and...

Some mornings I am so organized.  I know exactly what has to get done, how much time I have etc.  I was feeling pretty good about my timing, and had to make a couple trips to put my shit in the car – my gym bag, and my big container of soup for Souper Friday at my office. I came back in to get my...

21 years ago today, I had my baby shower for my daughter Hannah.  New readers can read how Hannah came into the world here.  New readers?  Um, I didn’t even tell my parents until six weeks before Hannah was born that I was even having a baby!  Yikes! But you know what?  What seemed like a hard decision back then seems like nothing today.  Keeping...
