Wife, mother, laugh-er at very inopportune moments, and matchmaker. I am an excessive user of commas and exclamation marks. I once won March Madness despite knowing nothing about basketball, and I know how to find all the best Dunkin Donuts coupons. Clearly my talents are just endless.
snapshots from November now that we’re halfway through December
We recently went to a mother daughter tea party at a local church. There were sugar cubes, petit fours, the whole nine yards. AB is not a tea party gal, but (surprise surprise) I am. I had the best time.
Each mother was asked to bring a special tea cup for their daughter. There must have been a run on teacups because TJMaxx had not one fancy teacup left on their shelves. Annabelle is more of a mug and quirky cat kind of girl anyway so it worked out.
We traveled to Houston for Thanksgiving. We left our home at 4:30am and arrived at the hotel at 7:45pm. Annabelle had the best time playing with cousins. She was trying to set up phone calls before we left so they could keep chatting.
We visited NASA to see the Christmas lights display. I adore anything space/NASA related and Christmas lights. Put ’em together and what do you have? My dream scenario. We went a few years ago and have talked about it ever since.

Me: Why does it only say 19 minute to the airport when it’s always over 50?
Christopher: That’s the difference between weekday and weekend traffic in Houston.
twelve minutes later
Me: These roads look different. We haven’t seen all the skyscrapers we always see.
Christopher: The GPS is taking us a different way.
Me: Are you sure we’re going to the right airport?
Christopher: Yes.
Me: Ok.
Christopher: Check the itinerary.
Me: We are not going to the right airport.
Houston, we do indeed have problems.
We shall rename Charlotte’s Web to Sarah’s Egg Sac
The latest of AB's shows, Charlotte's Web, has been performed. She had to wear a bow and pearl necklace which delighted me to no end. She was less than thrilled. This was the first production where Annabelle had so many lines, and she studied as if she was up for the...
names have been changed to protect the guilty
I recently was the substitute teacher for the K3 class at school. That is all the energy I have to discuss it. The first fifteen minutes went fine. I love little people! The children arrived and I learned their names while they hung up their backpacks. Several...
small September snapshots
We recently took a daytrip down to Tallahassee. It was lovely weather with lovely views and lovely animals. It was all lovely and fine and dandy until we decided to do the ropes course. The last time we were there, AB did a children's ropes course and it all went...
a little of this, a little of that
I started listening to The Perfect Couple last week. I told Christopher about it, and said I couldn't decided if I should finish the book before watching the show on Netflix. I said it wasn't his kind of story so either way, I'd watch it without him. The next day I...
