I’m Home!

Posted: Friday, December 9th, 2005 @ 12:04 pm in Daily Life | 2 Comments »

For the last 2 weeks (give or take a few days) I have been away from home taking a class for my job. Though I had Internet access while I was gone, the class was about a computer system and was very intense. So by the time I got back to my hotel […]

It’s not fair!

Have you ever heard that phrase uttered from the mouth of a child? Perhaps an adult? With Thanksgiving having come around again, I thought maybe I could help remove that vocabulary from your personal lexicon.
What does the word “fair” mean? The dictionary mentions the idea of being “in proper or legal […]

Back in the land of the living

Yeah, it’s been a while. But hey–I didn’t go 17 days with no post like some people I know.
As you read last, I had strep and I had it bad. I can’t remeber being in so much pain before. After my throat stopped hurting, I realized it had also […]

It hurts…

I have had a sore throat with minor fever for about 48 hours now. I had thought it was just drainage, but it wasn’t getting better–no, it was getting much worse.
So, after a sleepless night last night, I call the doctor who couldn’t see me until 4:45pm today. I suffered through today, almost […]

Our Little Visitor

As mentioned in the last post, we had a little visitor the other night.
 
For around a year now, Shari has been involved in the Youth For Christ young mothers mentoring program. She has had the opportunity to mentor a young girl who was, when they met, pregant and has now had the baby. […]

Pun’kin Carvin’

Even though our neighborhood is odd and refuses to do Trick-Or-Treating on the actual date of Halloween, and thus we completed that activity 2 days ago, we carved our Jack O’Lantern tonight. I should have had that done a few days back, I suppose, but these things sneak up on me. Regardless, it […]

More on Housing

Posted: Monday, October 24th, 2005 @ 3:01 pm in Daily Life | No Comments »

To catch you up, we did go and see the house I mentioned a few days back, and then we saw another a couple days later.
I had already told you how I thought the first one was over priced, and now that I see it I know it is. I will correct myself, though–I […]

Housing, and What To do

Posted: Tuesday, October 18th, 2005 @ 3:05 pm in Daily Life | 3 Comments »

This evening we will be going to look at a house for sale in the neighborhood we live in. With the adoption pending, we realize the need to either put an addition on our house, or purchase a larger one. Or one with the potoential to become larger with much less hassle than […]

To Elaborate…

Well, it’s been a busy week since we returned, but I’ll try to fill you in on the trip and the rest of the week.
As I mentioned in the last post, I couldn’t find any wireless signals from which to leech, so I couldn’t get any Internet while at the beach. That was fine […]

Checking In…

Just a note to say that I couldn’t get access to the Internet at the beach, but that we are now home. Will write more about the events of this weekend later…for now, must rest.
