Been doing some thinking. Yikes!

Yes I know with me, that could be bad...but it isn'tf(this time anyway). Today I swore off facebook(reality check...probably wont last a week, I mean come on I am a FB addict) but I am really trying to cut out some mess in my life. So I have been doing some thinking...I have re-read all the post i have posted on my blog and well I am not very happy with what I have been posting. why? well because they really don't give you a peek into my life. I mean the name is "a day in the life..." after all...so shouldn't it be about what is going on in my life at the time of the post? not just some silly opinion, just life(mine and those around me all the time) How else are you going to be keeping up with what is going on in my life if Im not posting anything that is much more than opinion...Take yesterdays post. It was about my baby girl. It was from the heart not the head. I seem to really like how it turned out. I could go on and on about stuff like that(the here and now--or even the memories from better days gone by) wow that made me sound super old-lol. So from now on, I don't plan to put you to sleep with what I think you want to read, but instead stories from my heart(happy stuff, mad stuff, just all kinds of stuff) about my family and friends.(Sorry if you find yourself in a story and it offends you) but I will try my best to not use names if not truly needed.(sometimes knowing who a story is about makes it so much better.) hugs & kisses...goodnight.

18 already?

The reality of it really hasn't sank in yet I don't think, she still has one more year of school so that's probably why. My first born 18 years old. Despite all the reminders of her age from my sweet girl, it truly does seem like only yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital when all the sudden here we are just over 2 weeks past her turning eighteen, where did all those years go? I would love to be able to sit here and recount every single detail with you from the very start but that might bore you to tears and well she might kill me of I did that. Because I can remember lots of little moments that would embarrassed her to death like how she was so scared of everyone singing happy birthday on her first birthday that she hid under the table crying and didn't want to touch the cake we got her. Or of her and her bff having cupcakes in their diapers that nanny brought by after Cathy's party at school when they were only one. Or of her and t...

Midlife crisis? Nah, just having a little fun.

I guess that is what some people call it when a guy nearing (ever so close to) 40 goes out and buys himself a shiny new (or not so new) motorcycle. However that thought never really crossed my mind when Stephen asked to buy one off a guy he works with. I wasn't thrilled with the idea, not because I thought he was having a midlife crisis, but because I thought there were plenty of other things we could spend our money on. I said no. We always talk about big purchases and agree when or if we spend the money. I was sure this thought was settled and we would not be the owners of a motorcycle anytime soon. Stephen had other ideas... Stephens toy He made the decision to get the bike (it really was a good price, I guess) and well now we are that crazy old couple that rides around on a motorcycle every chance at nice weather we get. Here is a bit of history...My dad had a Honda gold wing when we were little (I was like 13) he and my mom wou...

Throwback Thursday

Let me just start by saying straight out of the gate that I absolutely hate to be on the front side of any camera much less my own. Now it isn't that I don't enjoy being in the moment, I do. I just enjoy taking the pictures instead of being in them if that makes any sense at all. With that said I'm glad I was on the front side of this camera this day. I suppose all little girls dream of growing up, getting married and having babies. I know when I was a little girl my friends and i would play house, we would more less mark of sections of the room as mine and theirs these sections would be my house or her house. we'd have baby dolls name them fun names. We had fun. I don't know that I ever really thought about actually having children when I grew up. And as I got older I remember that I didn't even want to get married when I grew up much less have any kids. But we all grow up. And that guy comes along t...
