Creme eggs aren't the only things releasing the goo at this time of year: when the days get longer and the snow starts melting, maple sap starts flowing and fans of pure Canadian sugar rushes head straight for the nearest sugar bush. We're hard-pressed to think of a better wa...

Life is made up of stories.  Stories of hope ... stories of love... stories of challenge. While we yearn for hope and search for love, many stories are about the challenge. This is such a story. To tell this story, we need to introduce you to Alma.  Alma has been a secretary at a school ...

New England is currently being blasted with snow.  Here, in CT, we woke up to about 6-7 inches and it's still snowing at 11:30.  We're expecting another big blast that will leave us, when all is said and done, between 10-14 inches.  Zowee! Even though we knew that a storm w...

Services and the dinner went well last night. Linda decided not to go, as it would serve to be uncomfortable for her.  I understood and realized that in the very near future, I need to have a conversation with my ex about co-existing for the sake of Sophie.  It's been 4 years and thi...

Now before anyone jumps to any conclusions, the title of today's post has absolutely nothing to do with gay men! And since I've been in sort of a sharing mood, this week, let me tell you that when I was growing up, I had no interest in dolls, imaginary friends, or anything remotely like thos...

It's Tuesday and I'm home.  I'm home all week, as Sophie's school is closed this week for their 'winter break'.  I know we didn't have any winter break when I was in school.... grumble, grumble, sigh. Linda, Sophie & I went skiing yesterday at a place call...

Here are some ultrasound pictures that were given to us Thursday and Friday morning. If you compare them to what we had before, you’ll note the loss of fluid. The last photo also says breech. Sigh, one thing after another. :) Steve says breech doesn’t matter, ’cause they say they&#...

I know it's somewhat rude or obnoxious to write about this next subject after my last post about 'showing the love' and tomorrow being Valentine's day, but that's me, folks.  Rude AND obnoxious.  My daughter is all about Valentines and getting as many as she can...

Yes, I am lame lately. A lame blogger, a lame photo poster, etc. Oh well. I’m too tired for this stuff. Let’s see, anything new? Probably not. Um, last week I had bean sprouts on a sandwich. Can you believe it? Me? Yeah I never thought I’d see that day either. They were too hard to...
