Today marks 10 years since I married Jon on that hot August day. It’s amazing it’s been 10 years. It’s amazing what has happened in these past 10 years – some highs and some lows. We celebrated the highs and managed to get through the lows. Happy anniversary, Jon! It has been wonderful being married [...]

Book #32 of 2008 – “Breaking Dawn” by Stephanie Meyer
Posted in Books, tagged Breaking Dawn, Twilight on August 29, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
As with the other 3 books in the Twilight series, I enjoyed this book. It was a good ending to the story. There were some moments in the book that I became completely wrapped in it more so than others (to say what those were would give spoilers).
It’s too bad this series had to [...]

Book #31 of 2008 – “Are You There, Vodka? It’s Me, Chelsea” by Chelsea Handler

This book is a collection of stories written by comedienne Chelsea Handler. They were amusing – at some points, I did laugh at loud, but I think I’m only willing to give the book maybe 3 or 3 1/2 stars (too bad the 1/2s are not available on goodreads). It’s an alright book.
Next up, the [...]
Book # 30 of 2008 – “Choice” by Karen Bender & Nina de Gramont
Posted in Books on August 8, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
This book is a collection of stories of different women who in one way or another made a choice or had their choice taken away from them. I was going to write this big long post on it, but I just don’t have the time or the energy. I will say that it was [...]
Just some topics on my mind
Posted in Family, Misc., Pregnancy, Twins on August 5, 2008 | 4 Comments »
It’s annoying (and sometimes hurtful – depending on the person and topic) when I send an e-mail to someone – whether a person I know or a government agency – and I never get a response though the e-mail is asking for a response and I know they’ve read my message.
I must be tired [...]
Dates and Parks

We started out our weekend by going to a friend’s house after Ben & Ella went to bed (mother-in-law stayed with them). We got there about 9 and left about 10. I was seriously tired and it was way past my bed time but I felt like I hadn’t seen anyone in forever. We actually [...]
