Do You Like Poetry?

January 6, 2009 by Elaine

There was a time in my life (high school) when I LOVED reading and writing poetry. Because I was going through some of my old writing tonight, I thought I would share one from the archives. Let me know what you think. I guess I am finally ready to share… Morning As if up from…

January 4, 2009 by Elaine

Okay, so I am sort of cheating on my weekly winners post this week. Partly because I took VERY few pics this week and also because I wanted to share the real “winners” in my life! It’s myself and my friends who ran/walked a 5K yesterday! And… it was MY FIRST! All the running has…

Missing: Small Greyish-Brown Puppy…

January 1, 2009 by Elaine

… that answers to the name “Wuffy.” First let me start by saying: We don’t have any “real” pets. The B Man would LOVE to have a pet. In the past he has mentioned anything from a mouse to a guinea pig to a dog. He wants one – any”one.”. But me and the hubs’…

Okay Fine, I Am Paying Attention Now!!

December 30, 2008 by Elaine

Sometimes I think we all need a little “wake up call.” I’m gonna go ahead and call that little questionaire I had to answer at G’s 18 month well check, my latest one. Either I was just kind of “asleep” when it came to observing his development or our little guy decided that he was…

December 28, 2008 by Elaine

I decided to use this chance to take a look back at some of my favorite pictures from this year. So I guess we have to call this “Yearly Winners!” I have to say it was really hard to choose just one for each month. And I also have to give credit to June Cleaver…
