Yesterday morning, I was all set to listen to U2 while I ran on the treadmill. I've kept their Achtung, Baby! down there for several years for when the U2 running mood hits me. (I also keep some Ted Nugent, John Mellencamp, and Dixie Chicks handy – my running moods are pretty eclectic!) (It's kind…

This first day of January has just drifted by. I haven't accomplished much of anything beyond a little after-party straightening and a walk with the puppies. Just reading about everything I did last New Year's Day makes me tired! But I feel as if I'm drifting in a calm spot between two rapids in a…

It just doesn't feel like Halloween to me. We live a mile down a dirt road. There are no small children living nearby, and even if they did, their parents would skip our house and head for a real neighborhood in town where the little goblins can trick-or-treat door-to-door, collecting a lot more loot in…

I've mentioned before how acrobatic my little Belle is, that I thought she must be descended from circus dogs… Now I believe it more than ever!

It's only been two weeks since Tom hurt his back bowling. It had gotten better, but I'm pretty sure he stretched Dr. Oz's advice a bit far Saturday… A few hours later, he was back in bed, lying on a heating pad. (can you hear me sighing?) I only have time for a quick post…

Max wants to get in on the fun, since Dad's not yelling … Belle is fascinated by shovels and pick-axes! Makes it tough to do any digging! (In case you're wondering … yes, Tom somehow managed to get the crape myrtles planted, despite all the "help"!)

When Mama's away, the boys will play! Look what I discovered in the house Friday afternoon when I got home from work … And Tom says I'm the softy in the family…
