I've been bitching and whining more than I have a right to.  Days like today remind me of that.

I love the fall.  Today reminded me of that as well. Some how in the middle of the heat I forget what comfort awaits me in the fall.  That if I can wait it out through the summer, the fall will give me chilly days full of rain and cuddling and books or ( Read more... )

I didn't want to go but Nate kept insisting it was for the kids so of course I went. I actually had a lot of fun and I totally kicked Nate's ass... not that I'm at all ( Read more... )

Nate and I just got home after about two weeks of traveling. I think Maggie is more excited about home than we are. Christmas with my family was more drama filled than usual. Christmas with Nate’s family was nice and mellow. I felt more comfortable and relaxed in Reno than I was the whole time I was home. Not only did I get some much needed ( Read more... )
