you wanna do what in the rain?

June 8, 2012 by melave Leave a Comment

I looked again at the text. ‘Drive-in tonight?’ ‘Isn’t it going to rain?’ I answered. ‘So?’ ~sigh~ Ok, so we went to the drive-in…in the rain. The last time we went, the popcorn wasn’t the best. So we made our own and smuggled it in under a blanket on the front seat. Bathroom breaks had … [Read more…]

my Daughter’s new Family

June 5, 2012 by melave Leave a Comment

From the time they take their first step, we start to worry about them growing up and leaving someday. And as much as we try to love and protect them, we know that they will eventually make that step out the door towards their new life. When that day came for me, I was horrified. … [Read more…]

For the last two years I’ve heard nothing but complaints from Goose about the lilac bushes. They’re too big! They’re in the wrong spots! They smell too much! They make my allergies worse! They’re staring at me! And then finally …They need to go! One day about a month ago, we were working out in … [Read more…]

running out of ideas?

May 30, 2012 by melave Leave a Comment

I have one question…. Have you been to the movies lately? Goose & I make a point of having a date night each week. We usually go out for dinner or grab something quick and catch a movie at the local theatre. For a while last year it was going well. We thoroughly enjoyed everything … [Read more…]

So I’m just coming off a 7 day cleanse…and how do I celebrate it? By going to Dairy Queen of course. Yes I am aware I am lactose intolerant. Yes I am aware I spent a week ridding my body of toxins and that I probably added a day’s worth back in. But I deserved … [Read more…]
