« Previous EntriesScouts!!
Thursday, November 29th, 2007Jake made it to Scouts on Tuesday night. I feel so bad. It’s only the second time he’s made it since we moved here. First off, it took a month to find out where and when. Then–it’s on Tuesday night here, and no matter how many times I write it on the [...]
A Soldier’s Silent Night!!
Tuesday, November 27th, 2007‘Twas the night before Christmas
He lived all alone
In a one bedroom house made of plaster and stone
I had come down the Chimney with presents to give.
And to see just who in this home did live.
I looked all about, a strange sight I did see.
No tinsel, No presents, Not even a tree.
No stocking by the mantle, [...]
Keeping Up The Yard!!
Tuesday, November 27th, 2007I wrote not that long ago about the neighbors that came and cleaned up the leaves in the yard. I was so thrilled for them to do it because I had been dreading it! Now the big job left is the back yard! I have to ‘winterize’ the entire thing–and I for [...]
Hopefully The End!!
Monday, November 26th, 2007I have been sick for over a year! I never used to get sick–and now, I just can’t seem to get well! I was deaf over most of the summer with so much congestion in my head, and although I have maintained my hearing over the past several months-the congestion is still there.
I [...]
Lost It Again!!
Wednesday, November 21st, 2007I would like to be the first person (maybe) out there to SCREAM…I HATE WP 2.3.1!! I was told over and over to update–and I did, and you know what–it deleted my entire blog! Now, as I was ‘re-entering’ everything all day yesterday I realized that it was just on October 2nd that [...]
Our Second Honeymoon!!
Saturday, November 17th, 2007This was our first chance in our marriage…well, since kids started coming 10 years ago–that my husband and I got to take a trip alone. Mind you, we’ve left the kids overnight with his parents and gone out together–the longest was two nights when we got a hotel downtown–but to actually get into an [...]
Soldier Field!!
Friday, November 16th, 2007This monument stands on the North end of the stadium. The John F. Kennedy War Memorial, was dedicated to Veterans at a ceremony on Veteran’s Day 2003.
I mentioned earlier, this amazing quote from John F. Kennedy. Here is the picture of the monument as it stands outside of Soldier Field (home of the Chicago Bears). [...]
Camera’s Coming Out My Ears!!
Friday, November 16th, 2007Two weeks ago, I wanted to take the kids out and take their pictures. Mind you–I’m not really thrilled with the time/money/finished product of the “photo shops”, so this one was on me. I was prepared! I purchased a 2GB photo memory card–and I was set! Only problem…my obsolete little camera wasn’t compatible with this [...]
New Christmas Tree!!
Friday, November 16th, 2007I bought a Christmas tree yesterday! I know–we are a little early! I got one of the prelit ones–just because, hey, with four kids—the worst part of Christmas is definitely the lights! This one is green–but it has just a little skiff of white on the branches–so cute! They had it [...]
My Job Today!!
Thursday, November 15th, 2007Well, I am sick again! I’ve decided that it’s been off and on for over a year. So I’m going to sit down today and go through each and every blog post with a calendar. As I was reading over them a month or so again I laughed at how so [...]
