So all you lovely people out there in LJ land... I need some help. Next week Wednesday and Thursday I'm going to go up into the Porcupine mountains and stay in a yurt for 2 nights. I believe I can cook over an open fire but it's just going to be me. I don't know what I'm going to take to eat. I'm asking you for help. A little about me: I'm not the ( Read more... )

We've been cleaning for a couple of days. My garbage and recycling cans are overflowing and it feels good ( Read more... )

P was put on thyroid medication today. She was sad that she has to take more medication but I'm hoping she will feel better after it kicks in ( Read more... )

Quick note to say I'm back. I plan on posting more later. I had a really good vacation. Sadly P who flew with a different airline stand by got stuck in Salt Lake City. She should be home very soon. I also got back to learn that I forgot to pay my car insurance and I was almost canceled, Oops! I took care of that and pretty quick I'll be doing the ( Read more... )

Today we went to see "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" which was longer than I expected and because my son wanted to go....better than I anticipated. If you have three hours and are up for an epic type movie, go see it. I thought it was very good but it was also kinda sad for me, perhaps because I've been feeling sad lately.

P's still pretty sad ( Read more... )

We made it to Indianapolis! We decided after checking out of the hotel in Chicago the weather seemed too bad to delay getting to Indianapolis. Normally I think it takes just over 3 hours but not today! We left just after 1pm and didn't get here until 6:30. We had a really long detour not one that was posted but after we sat for 30 minutes on the ( Read more... )

Teh boy is home! He seemed to have a great time and he talked ALL the way home (over an hour). I loved hearing the stories. He didn't even spend all the money he had.  The only thing I'm sad about is that he lost the camera. I lent him my digital camera for pictures. I'm not bummed about the camera it wasn't an expensive one, I'm bummed that he has ( Read more... )

 Almost done packing, we decided to stay at my house tonight and then go to the airport early tomorrow. I'm doing lots of laundry and wish I was done so I could  go to sleep. I've got to empty the catbox before we go. The boy would have been home alone tonight had we not stayed. I don't know why his father doesn't pick him up anyways ( Read more... )

We're home! (At the city house at least) We were going to go to the country house tomorrow but P has to go to the sleep institute to have her cpap machine serviced. She's got an appointment at 11am and then we're going to get her passport applied for and then back to the country house.

Monday night In Buffalo, we stayed at a nice hotel and ate BBQ ( Read more... )
