Work in Progress

My little report on Amelia’s first trip to the beach is a work in progress. Three are A LOT of pictures (Greg took most of them and I’m waiting for him to upload his to Flickr or until I can ’steal’ them from his computer… which ever comes first) to share (all of mine are [...]

BAKED

What is it with men not listening to women? I asked Greg if he wanted me to put in the sunblock for him and his reply was “why, the sun isn’t out.” and I informed him that he could still get a sunburn, reguardless if it’s sunny or not. Did he listen to me? Nope, [...]

First Stop

in less than 2 hours we made it to Sonic’s in Bridgeville, DE. I’ve pretty much slept through the whole drive (didn’t go to bed until sometime after 1am). Our new favorite drink from Sonic’s is their Orange Cream Slushie, which is a mix of Orange Juleus and vanilla milkshake. damn good. It sucks that [...]

What I’m NOT Doing

And that is sleeping.
As soon as I posted the last entry, I took my prescribed pain meds (2) and laid in bed. Too afraid to move because I was in some pain. More than I was expecting/remember. Greg laid in bed next to me, holding my hand and petting my hair as I started to [...]

Kicking and Screaming

I pretty much felt like kicking and screaming myself AWAY from the dentist. I was getting so incredibly nervous - with good reason. I took the recommend dose of the mind altering meds (3 pills, but seriously thought about taking more) and inhaled (through my nose) as much of that ‘laughing gas’ as I could. [...]

Lazy Days

When I woke up this morning (and it felt so freaking good to be able to sleep in until 9:30am), I declared that today was going to be Lazy Day.
My declaration didn’t last long. I started cleaning the bathrooms, kitchen, and the laundry within an hour. And, I cooked dinner tonight. Greg did absolutley nothing. [...]

Just a Quickie

Work = Stressful! They are now training me on a whole new program for a whole new territory and I am still expected to do EVERYTHING else they’ve thrown at me. Umm…, yeah… I’ve been coming into work an hour early every day this week to get a head start on the work I didn’t [...]

Updates

I’m disappointed to write that there was no 5am Battering Ram team. We don’t know what happen from when we talked to the cop around 1pm to when we came home around 5pm; evidentially something happened because our neighbor was no longer ‘in hiding’, or so it seemed.
As expected, the O’s lost yesterday. But, the [...]

Stake Out

Apparently, we have a bad neighbor and we didn’t even know. Actually, what few interactions I’ve have with him have been pleasant, so honestly, I have no opinion about him… but he must have done something bad.
At 9:24am there is a pounding on our door. Not a knock, but a POUNDING that scared both Greg [...]
