Well y’all, I sit speechless as I write this. It is almost midnight here, yet my mind is racing. My emotions are…well, I don’t know yet. I could write a book on here but my husband keeps telling me to get to bed so I don’t sleep late tomorrow-on my first day off…yeah my first [...]

This week was a good week! Before work on Thursday, we had a parent/teacher conference for my youngest daughter. It went very well. On top of her getting straight A’s the whole year, we were commended on her behavior. The teacher then asked us our secret for having such a wonderful [...]

Here in South Florida, all eyes are on Ike. Me, I don’t like Ike. Ike looks scary. We wont know much until the advisory tomorrow. Of course the kids have their fingers crossed that there will be no school until Monday but we will have to wait and see what happens with this one. I think school is [...]
