Photo Dump

Photo Dump
I down loaded pictures from my old camera that I took with me over the weekend.  When I got to my Mom’s house last Thursday night, we both realized that I am her first overnight guest!  The day after she slept over at our house the week before, she left this note for us: While I had blueberry muffins for her, she had the guest...

Three Generations of Feet

Three Generations of Feet
My feet are blue, Hannah’s are purple and Nana’s are orange.  And these three feet had a wonderful weekend in Michigan!  When Nana asked us to go away for the weekend it seemed so far away and it kind of snuck up on us. How bad can your weekend be when this is your back yard? Once we got settled into the house, it was...

I am Abnornmal, but I’ll be Okay!

Hey guys – just a quick post today.  I got a call yesterday from the dermatologist regarding my biopsy.  While the biopsy came back with “abnormalities” I don’t have skin cancer!  Since they aren’t exactly sure what it is, they suggest I see a plastic surgeon to remove the rest of it.  This was how it was described to me: Sometime lesions can be atypical...

9:14 Mile Pace!

9:14 Mile Pace!
Wow, thanks for all your well wishes comments and emails yesterday about the biopsy of my “spot” as I am going to call it.  I am sure it will be fine, but if nothing else, hopefully my experience persuaded a few of you to get some suspicious spots of your own checked out. On the way to work I picked up my prescription shampoos for...

Biopsy?

Biopsy?
When I walked into the dermatologists office yesterday morning, I would have thought I walked into a Beverly Hills spa like you see on t.v.  I wish I would have had the balls to take a picture, but the waiting room was chandeliers, leather furniture, and the staff all had monogrammed shirts with their names on them and all of them sported Rolex watches.  Not...

It’s Raining and 70!

It’s Raining and 70!
I can’t tell you how happy I am to see some rain – our grass is so dead and crunchy, that we haven’t even mowed it for probably six weeks.  When I left work at 5:00 last night? My friend and blog reader M.J. was complaining about temps in the low 60’s in her neck of the woods – I told her I would gladly...

No Fail Potato Gratin

No Fail Potato Gratin
How the hell did it get to be Monday already??  I had a bizzy weekend, and a relaxing one too – best of both worlds! Tony and I went out to eat Friday night at Wool Street.  Except they didn’t have Rolling Rock on tap – boo.   They have awesome burgers and pulled pork sandwiches, but I felt like tacos.  I ordered the shrimp...

I ruined the surprise!

I ruined the surprise!
Can I have every afternoon off please?  Because I knew I was leaving at 12:30, the morning actually moved by rather quickly.  I stopped on my way home to vacuum out my car – when the hell did it start to cost $2 for the vacuum machine at the gas station?! All I had for breakfast was a yogurt from McDonald’s so I was hungry...

I Got A Ticket

I Got A Ticket
Before I left for work yesterday, it was raining pretty good – its so nice to see some rain!  It was short lived though. . . by the time I left for work it was puffy clouds and blue skies. And, I always think of Lori, yesterday was Bagel Wednesday!  This was an asiago cheese bagel with 1/2 ounce of salami, 3/4 ounce swiss cheese,...

Wanna See Something Gross?

Wanna See Something Gross?
This no rain this summer and unseasonably high temperatures, the only good thing is that there are hardly any mosquitos.  I think I’ve had one mosquito bite all year.  However, with the good, sometimes comes the bad.  FLIES. I think its probably because our garbage sits in sweltering heat for a week before being picked up, but the flies have been unbelievable.  Tony happened to...
