We hired a babysitter so we could go out on Saturday, staying in KC until Sunday. It was nice to be out with just adults. It was nice to wake up without the crying of children. I also picked up three new nail polish colors. Surgery and the Big Black Death Plague that swept through [...]

Up until 2004, I went through life feeling content and happy just being the mother of puppies.  Even when I was really young, I declared that I wasn’t going to get married because I didn’t need to be married, and I wasn’t going to have kids. I was going to have a puppy farm–a large-acre [...]

The surgery is over, and aside from waking up majorly confused and not knowing where I was for a short time, all went well. I’m in pain, but that is what happens when you get an organ removed. I have pills. They give me small windows of relief. I do have to say, the missing [...]

Christmas is now over, although we still have the tree, decorations and lights to take down, and the piles of loot to organize and put away. We all came out really well in the loot department, and for that we are very fortunate. However, having Mac’s family and my family here on Christmas Eve was [...]
