Last night, my kickboxing partner laughed and told me that I look like I am riding a pony while trying this one move. I can assure you, when I see other people doing the move, they certainly don’t look like they are riding a pony. I never had good coordination, especially for aerobics. But man,…
McKinely has an appt. at the vet tomorrow to get his annual feline distemper vaccine and J said, “but why? His temper is fine!” ***UPDATE … Mr. McKinley’s temper is just fine following the vaccination.
I haven’t had anything blog-worthy to say lately and I apologize to my THREE blog readers, LOL. But I will say, I love Friday the 13th. And we have one today and next month. Yippee skippee! I’ve also felt like I’ve always had a good day on Friday the 13th, so I’m certainly not superstitious…
Well, Sunday was WARM. By our standards. 46 degrees!!!! We still have most of our snow, but at least some of these badasses have disappeared.
I owe my 5 blog readers some updates, so prepare for bullets on Friday! • I got most of the feeling back in my lower lip/chin. I will see oral surgeon on Tuesday, but I’m going to venture to say that the rest of the feeling is not coming back. I talked to a few…
I had a great weekend down at my sister’s and we decided to take my niece and nephew for a “drive” down to Jersey (no small feat) to visit my parents. With fresh snow on the ground, we thought we would take the kids sledding on the hills we used to go on as kids.…
I certainly don’t have the photography skills that some of my friends have, but I thought this picture was too pretty not to share. It was taken from my office window Wednesday during our latest snowstorm. Have a good weekend everyone! J is off to Columbus for a guy’s weekend with theHoss and I am…
I was so busy wallowing in my “numbness” that I forgot to mention we attended a wedding on Saturday. Guess where it took place? In our living room!!! J’s childhood friend, theBuddha, got married in Vegas and we watched the live feed. A first time for both of us, but it was neat to be…
I had a follow-up appt. with my oral surgeon who assured me that the mild pain I still feel will go away eventually, but he cannot be sure I will regain feeling in my lower lip and chin. It was all part of the surgery’s risk, as I knew. I was thankful that I didn’t…
The biggest difference between J and I is our luck. He has it all. I have pretty much have none. We balance each other out. So last night we had a soccer game. My mouth is mostly healed, aside from the lingering numbness in my lips and chin (a story for another day). I felt…
I admit I am a little behind the times when it comes to the technology age. I don’t have a Facebook account. I don’t Twitter. I hardly text. But I do blog. And have a Myspace account (I know, how totally yesterday!). And a LinkedIn account. But this NY Times story about sending an e-card…
I survived my surgery and my first anesthesia experience. I’m recovering slowly. Don’t really feel like talking about it, but I do feel like pointing out the temperatures we’ve been experiencing. In case you can’t see in the picture, it says -18.2. The low was actually -20 on Friday. That’s NEGATIVE 20. Apparently the lowest…
I have probably the biggest sweet tooth, but I absolutely abhor going to the dentist and always have. Ask my mom. I once ran out onto the street from a dentist chair when I was 6 or 7. I just always hated the cleanings and always ended up with cavities to be filled. As I…
The good news is they can fix our TV and we may have it back in another week. After paying them $180 of course! As much as we didn’t want to invest money in the TV knowing it will probably crap out in another few years, we also didn’t want to invest double that in…
You had to know we were all over the ad I saw that a local ski resort was offering free cross-country ski or snowshoe rentals, a free day pass, free lessons and free guided tours. So Saturday, we headed up to King Pine Ski Area in northern NH. And for real guys, we rented XC…
Just wanted to share the latest money-saving offer, if you haven’t seen it on the news. A few food store chains are allowing you to fill your prescription for generic antibiotics for FREE. And with cold and flu season among us, I’m sure we will all be filling a prescription soon. You can already fill…
Let me start by saying, I love being married. But, I still love my alone time every once in awhile. J is at one of his famous recreation director conferences. You know, the ones where he plays wiffle ball, drinks beer and complains about budget cuts. Except this time, he is northern NH, so they…
I saw this on some other blogs and thought, why not? Did anyone close to you give birth?Only 11 of our closest friends … Did anyone close to you die?My grandma. Sadly, two other friends of J’s family also died, but I wasn’t close to them. What dates from 2008 will remain etched upon your…
12 days off from work – very, very awesome returning to work after 12 days off – not so awesome But still, I’m thankful for having a job for now.
Our 2-year-old flat-screen LCD TV (the one we bought with the gift card my bridesmaid gave us for my bridal shower!) is in the repair shop right now because of static electricity. The other day, J went to turn off the TV and touched the on/off button, only to receive a nasty shock. We noticed…
