Not so long ago, I posted about Grant’s ODD, and how difficult it’s been to manage historically. He has grown so much. I think several things have contributed to the changes we’re seeing: appropriate medication (probably the biggest single factor), hockey (he plays three times a week, and it helps him to burn off excess,…

Teenagers! The kids didn’t have school today (the school decided they didn’t want sugared-up monsters careening through the school I guess), so I took the twins and my parents to upgrade Henry’s iPad (Eleanor’s bricked earlier in the summer so she got upgraded then), have lunch, and go to the bookstore. When we got home,…

I’ve been particularly anxious lately. There are a lot of factors, and many which I actually enjoy, like the kids’ sports. I am defacto in charge of Henry’s cross country stuff. Bob is coaching Grant’s hockey team, as well as being on two teams (including one that is the 50+ team – oh how far…

I was away for work for about 30 hours, and Grant missed me. He made me a welcome back goodie bag. Inside was pizza and candy! He knows how to make a gal feel special!

Today marks fifteen years since Bob and I got married. It’s been fun and not fun, good and not good, beautiful and not beautiful. But it’s been the better parts for nearly all of the time, and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. It’s been a real honor to grow with Bob during…

“Did you get me rolling my eyes at you?” Sure did buddy. Always.

Ok, this time I knew Dead and Co are not a cover band (though they very kind of are). I was ready. Over Memorial Day weekend, Bob and I took a little trip to Vegas to see Dead & Co in the Sphere. We had an amazing weekend doing almost nothing. Let’s get into it.…
