A Momentous Occasion

So I was just thinking yesterday, this is the longest I have stayed put since I graduated from HS. I used to move every 3-6 months, and I have now lived in the same spot for 18 months! Amazing! So, to appease my wandering spirit, I get to rearrange my house every 3-6 months. Actually, I think I do it a lot more often than that. My desire for change is leaking on over into the blogging world. It is about time for another change. I apologize to all you who like things to stay constant. I just can't do it. If you have a hard time with the ever changing blog format, just pretend that it is in whichever design you like it best. I just am waiting for the fall with much excitement. Fall is my favorite season, so as my mood changes, so does the blog.

Wow, way to go! I know how you feel, I move a lot too. And I like change. I've been at my job for a year now and I feel like that's long enough!

I didn't really see any other Mayan ruins; part of our group went to Tikal for a day, but I rode a horse up a volcano instead. Those pictures will be coming soon....

I feel your pain! We are in contract for a house here in Las Vegas (move in is Nov) and here I am "gee maybe we should move to Dallas". My gypsy ways are hurting our chances for giving Harmon a nice stable home... But it kills me to think I could be here for 5 or 10 or worse 20 yrs to come! I'm addicted to moving.

I love the changing look of the blog. I really should do the same.

I was getting a little worried. The baby had not changed in her weight or height for a month. Not since the 22 of October. My midwife was a little worried. She said if there wasn't a change soon, she would have to induce me. Did you know I wanted to go natural? Absolutely completely natural. I wanted to start on my own, and be completely under my own will power. Hearing that she would have to start me sent a cold fear through my body. Evidently, my baby possibly had something called IUGR ( intra uterine growth restriction) which could cause a myriad of problems, the worst being a still birth. A still birth is one of my biggest fears. So yesterday I went in to get checked, praying that my body had changed, that it had dilated on its own. If it had she wouldn't have to start me. At the appointment she gave me a choice. I could either have the baby yesterday, or I could have her on Monday. We decided to have her yesterday. So we decided my midwife would break my wate

May I Take Your Order, Please?

I know that young people must have jobs. They have to start somewhere, but really, there has got to be some sort of intelligence test or guidelines before hiring people. Really. We bought some crown molding a while ago. I thought we would have enough. Turns out, as we were getting ready to put it up, we found we are about 5 ln feet short. Just 5. How annoying is that? So, I called Lowes and ended up speaking with a young man (I am guessing hoping he was young). The conversation amazed me. Me: "Hi do you carry any Trim-Tex crown molding?" Lowes: "What's that?" "A brand of crown molding. We are a couple of feet short." "Is that like a brand of baseboard?" "Well, yeah, sort of. Crown molding is decorative wood strip that goes along the ceiling." "Oh, okay. So what kind of tile do you need?" "Tile?" "To go along the ceiling, right?" "Uh, I don't need tile. I need crown molding."

Vegetarians at the Barbecue

We don't see our friends as often as we would like.  Something about us being the only ones married and with kids.  Whatever.  So any chance to have them all come play is a welcome one.  Since Jeffrey just had a birthday, we decided to have a barbecue tonight. We are having a barbecue and we don't eat meat.  Kind of ironic, isn't it?  When I thought about it, this video came to mind. Veggie At A Barbeque - Click here for the funniest movie of the week Have a fabulous Memorial Day weekend!
