First Thanksgiving in a Nutshell

I believe this was the first Thanksgiving that my family has had that had less than 8 people! We had a lot of room at the table; it was weird. The reason the attendees were so few is because two cousins are overseas, my brother had to work, Van is sick, and another cousin went [...]

Change of Plans, Again

We didn’t go to the Science Center. Instead, we went to The Maryland Zoo! The weather was too nice to spend the day inside.
The zoo was practically empty and apparently the zoo is under some renovations so all the exhibits were not open. Greg and i were slightly disappointed in our visit (especially since we paid [...]

Valley View Farms: Christmas Edition (and other things)

Greg and I went up to Valley View Farms today. They weren’t ready for Christmas just yet, but they are getting close and Greg and I are thinking of making another trip sometime in the near future. Also, we talked about making a trip to Valley View Farms a new tradition for us and Amelia. [...]

Nothing To Do

This is weird, again. Greg and I have nothing to do; we don’t have a baby to tend and care for, we don’t have anyone to feed (other than ourselves), anyone to change, or entertain (other than ourselves). It was weird waking up this morning and not have Amelia is bed with us, playing with [...]

Here It Is - Friday!

This day flew by!
I had an two hour meeting from 12-2 and I believe that is the perfect time of day to hold a meeting. To me, it makes the rest of the afternoon zoom.
I am very thankful that it was slow enough that I was able to read a good chunk of Airframe. The [...]

This, That, & Whatever

I think the gray skies have invaded my happiness.
Well, maybe - I’m feeling pretty good now but earlier this morning I wasn’t as happy as I usually am for mornings. Thankfully, the moment of sadness was short lived.
In the mean time, I’ve made an appointment with my physician for a physical. I haven’t seen my [...]

Fun Times

These past 24 hours have been so much fun!
After work, on Friday, Greg and I met at Bennigan’s and invited Aaron to join us. We were there for 2+ hours!! The food was good and so were the laughs. I tried to get a hold of my brother but he wasn’t answering his phone. Turns out [...]

Bits and Pieces

I have so much on mind right now:

Do we head up to Hagerstown and visit Michele and do some window/Holiday shopping at the Outlets;
Do we head up to Hunt Valley , again, and look at all the Christmas decorations at Valley View Farms;
When is Greg’s ‘letter’ going to arrive in the mail;
What are the plans [...]

Monday - Schmunday

I had such a great weekend! Looking back, I was pretty social and had seven visitors to the condo (Sat: Michele and Bobby; Sun: Ken, Greg’s Mom, Sean, Aaron, and Craven)! And to top off the end of a great weekend, Greg surprised me with the purchase of supplies to build a fire in the fireplace! [...]

Dum Dee Dum Dum

Two days in a row of rainy weather/cloudy skies and I love it! Yes, the constant grays and darkness do give me that sleepy “don’t feel like working or do anything at all” feelings but so worth it to me. This weather beats those hot and humid days of summer where I just feel sick [...]
