Life is…. life, these days. Fun, fulfilling. But I feel the need for deeper connections with humans, these days. More of them. And, I suppose, within my own family. Yet at the same time, lethargy has set in. Day in, day out. For me, maybe this is a “con” of the internet. I have dear [...]
Such a busy weekend. We just had bamboo floors installed in the living room and dining room, after ripping out all the carpet ourselves. White carpet in a dining room. Who does that? Along with this is the obligatory moving around of furniture, and getting rid of things we don’t use, or giving them a [...]
It’s raining tonight. It’s a nice, cozy rain. We went to a birthday party earlier for one of Derek’s friends and it was a good time, good food and friends. There was a point were most of the kids were running in crazy circles around the house, faster and faster and louder, and eventually, two [...]
I sold the glider chair today. The one I sat in with Derek the first days of his life in the world,all the way up until the day before we put his big boy bed that we built by hand into his room. That was Memorial Day weekend. It went to a guy for his [...]
Well, I guess it is not the weekend yet. Derek is upstairs and I am trying to get him dressed to go swimming, but he is being very dawdly today. I fear this will end in a freakout when it is too late to go swimming, but he has to learn to get dressed at [...]

I tried making my grandmother’s fudge recipe today for the first time ever. I think I went too far past soft ball stage, so I tried again with the batch, and it improved slightly in consistency, but is still grainy. Still, a good first try. Derek will like it no matter what. Next time, a [...]
-Simon LeBon really kinda goes overboard when he decides to have a Twitter session, makes me page just a blur of blue eyes. -Lots of WordPress messing around right now. Come the New Year it will be time to get back into Joomla, methinks, for other projects. I still kinda like Drupal *wistful* -Derek and [...]
Tonight Derek and I have a special event I signed up for a few months ago, a Mom-Son dinner dance at the local Park/Rec center. Dancing, food, cookies…and we are supposed to dress up. Tomorrow Derek’s preschool has a Spiral Walk…a winter event where the kids walk a spiral on evergreen boughs and light a [...]
