A chatty look at a 40 year old’s college freshman year, her kids, husband and other craziness
We’ve had an interesting couple of days. First Tiki got very sick and ended up at the emergency vets where she was diagnosed with pancreatitis, a very dangerous condition. After three days staying there she is now comfortably resting at home. Tom’s cousin just returned from his second tour of Afghanistan and has been down [...]
I am really missing my little family of 5 right now. Today we hosted a birthday party for a friend’s son Tommy, he turned 2. He opened all of his presents with glee, hardly able to contain himself, ready to play with anything having to do with Buzz Lightyear. I sat there thinking where did [...]
When I was younger I hated being alone, I always wanted someone around entertaining me, now that I am older I don’t mind being alone. A fantastic opportunity opened itself up to me and I’m grabbing hold of it, Tom has a convention in San Francisco the same week that I’m off for spring break, [...]
Things are pretty normal around here. Tommy and his girlfriend have mono. Simon and his girlfriend are going to Universal Studios tomorrow on an excused day off of school. Tom stole my Kindle and is now reading his own books. Olivia was asked to participate in some instructional cheer videos today, AND get paid for [...]
This has been a crazy and hectic weekend. Friday night started out great, Liv and I met up with 2 girlfriends and their daughters for dinner. We then (Liv and I) headed to Deltona or Deland or some other city that starts with a D for Simon’s football game. Once we got there (25 minute [...]
There are a few things in my life that are an absolute must, here are some of my favorite things. I wish I was Oprah and could give you one of everything on my list

Mascara [...]
I’ve started sewing again. YAY! My sewing machine needed a little attention and luckily my neighborhood Joann’s specializes in Huskvanas. After a few brain farts and trying to read a pattern again after like 2 years, I was off. I did a bit today but am hoping to crank out a quilt top tomorrow. My [...]
Spring break is over and school starts back up today. BOO. I woke up yesterday with what I thought were intense allergies, wrong, it is a cold! I sniffled my way through the beach and the Winter Park arts festival yesterday. I went be early last night hoping I would wake up today feeling better, [...]
Spring Break week has been awesome. I can definitely tell that I’m a 41 year old college breaker compared to a 21 year old. My days have been spent at the beach, but I’m by myself reading books and working on my tan. The younger ones are running around the beach showing off their bodies [...]
I learned a few new things this weekend. I don’t ever want to be single, I don’t ever want to need to go to a bar to find “the one”. My friends and I went out Saturday night to celebrate my birthday, we went to dinner and afterwards went to another restaurant that had a [...]
