Cooped Up

  Except for a short trip to the after hours clinic this past Saturday for a shot and a prescription and one short trip around the corner to see my parents Monday evening because I had not seen them in a week, I have been cooped up in our apartment for exactly 10 days.  This [...]

We just got back from our little family getaway to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and one of the highlights of our trip was going to see the Texas Rangers play the Minnesota Twins at the Ballpark in Arlington.  This was the first Major League Baseball game my son and I had ever attended (my husband [...]

Just thought I would post a couple of pictures of a typical Thanksgiving with my family.  My Thanksgivings have looked exactly the same for all 36 years of my life.  We go to my aunt’s for lunch, then down to my grandmother’s house after lunch for desserts and visiting.  And while doing the same thing [...]
