The baby is officially 9 months old today. As per his medical requirements, we had a well check-up this afternoon. He is 28" tall (or 2’ 4") -- which means he is 30% taller than most boys his age. He weighed in at 20 lbs and 2 ozs -- which means he is 45% heavier than most boys his age. His head measured 17 7/8" -- which means his head is all 45% ( Read more... )

So, yeah, I know that it has been a long while since I have posted any kind of update as to how I am doing and what has been going on in my life. But, to be honest, there isn’t much to say...except for SSDD. (If you don’t understand, same story -- or another word -- different day.)

My time is spent between two areas as of late -- my family and ( Read more... )

I got these from a couple of my friends.  Since I haven't had the best of weeks, these brought a smile to my face and a laugh from within.  I hope you enjoy them as I have....

Today was an alright day for me until around 3 pm this afternoon when I took some time from cleaning and working on my son's project to check my email.  My mom left to get my middle son from school, and I received a shock.

While reading my email, I was notified that another friend of mine had passed away.  He had been in the hospital and now he is ( Read more... )

Now, I have but to wait on the where and when of his arrangements.  I also have to wait until much later today to explain to my ( Read more... )

So, here we are...in 2008 and it seems that one thing has happened after another.  I know change happens when we least expect it.  But, this is getting to me at different levels and for different reasons.

Within the first full week of the new year, I have had two fights with my mother over money, work, and a few other things.  I love the woman ( Read more... )

So, I had some blood work done...I'm not a diabetic.  One hurdle cleared.  But, I have to have MORE blood work because my doctor told me that my thyroid levels were low.  So, that has to be done within the next week so that she will have the results for when I go see her this month.

My children are doing wonderful -- or at least they seem to be.  ( Read more... )

So, here I am, being drawn in by my other half and some of our friends to learn new things.  I don't mean that like it is bad...because it has been a lot of fun.  The only problem is that I sometimes feel out of place.  What exactly am I learning - how to play D&D.  Yeah, may sound strange since I have played VTM and do participate in Amtgard.  ( Read more... )

So, I know that it has been at least one moon cycle since I have posted anything in here.  I just seem to flow through the days as if there were nothing to write down.  But, sometimes, it is more that I wish not to take the time to do so.  LOL

As it is, my emotions have been such fun to deal with, that I have had to remind myself that we ALL have ( Read more... )

Dressed my older two sons as an emo boy and a dead pirate...met up with two other families...and we took all 8 kids trick or treating.  We basically walked for roughly 2 hours with our children in a very nice neighborhood...that understood the necessity of children having some fun.  :)
