Getting to Know You

2008-07-17T19:07:30Z

R.G. Ryan tagged me yesterday. Somehow I usually avoid these, but there was no escaping this one! The rules are posted at the beginning. Each player answers the questions and at the end of the post tags 5 suckers, friends and posts their names. ...

We went to Ben's Chili Bowl and a baseball game broke out

2008-07-10T03:48:43Z

I have a confession to make. I went to a baseball game tonight, not because I am a National's fan, but because I love baseball stadium food. Seriously, a Ben's Chili Bowl half smoke with chili, cheese, mustard and onion totally worth having to wat...

I really should be doing something else

2008-07-09T15:55:52Z

I need to clean the main bathroom, vacuum Victoria's room, fold laundry, but I'm not. Steve, Gary and I are going to a National's game tonight. It's my first baseball game in over 4 years. I think I'm more excited about the food than the game. B...

It Pays To Complain...Sometimes

2008-07-03T19:26:16Z

While we were in Tampa last month, we had a bad experience at PF Changs. It seemed they had reduced portion size while keeping prices the same. Like I've said before, I'm fine with paying more at this point. I expect it. However I'm not happy whe...

Things On Tuesday

Things I'm not liking Not being able to sleep. Seriously, I used to be able to guzzle coffee at midnight and sleep. Now, I drink green tea past 4pm and I'm up all night. The pile of laundry that needs to be sorted and folded in the laundry room...

Keeping Busy

2008-06-28T14:51:59Z

So, I realized that when I have nothing planned and the kids are gone, I really really miss them. The house just isn't the same. Honestly, I really like my kids, as much as they might drive me crazy sometimes. Steve doesn't have any leave time r...

Smaller Boxes, Same Prices

2008-06-24T15:38:35Z

One of my favorite things to do is grocery shop. I really do love it. Scanning the ads, writing the list, clipping the coupons, planning the meals. I love every part of it. Well, I could do without having to lug it all in the house, but everythin...
