We’re home from Disney!

I’m happy to say that we made the trip to Disney World with no real problems. Just a slight problem the day before we left. Hannah got sick at school and then twice more in the night at home. In the car we brought a bucket, just in case, gave her some crackers and...

Exes, Plants, and School?

I’m lucky enough that I haven’t heard from my ex-husband’s fiance lately. Not since she told me about something he had said and I replied that I don’t know why, but he lied about that. Apparently he had her believing that he and I were still “intimate” right up until the kids and I...

An Open Letter…

Returning to our regularly scheduled program.

January 2, 2012

I disappeared for a while, I know. I’m not the best consistent blogger there is apparently. Life keeps getting in the way, but I’m not complaining. Bryan came home in mid-November, in time for Thanksgiving. He’s was on leave for 15 days and has been on half-days ever since. Tomorrow he goes back to...
