updates

Finished reading my books Wednesday evening. They were great, but now that I've been done for a while I realize how much I haven't gotten done lately. Maybe I shouldn't be a reader. Can't seem to prioritize. I am on a waiting list at the library for yet another book.
I'm looking forward to Alabama games again. I get so emotionally involved. Last year there were several games I thought we were going to win and when we didn't I was furious. So I tried to distance myself, but so far this year is going well.....
Cat still didn't come home. Guess she never will. Killer keeps getting sores. Think he's getting caught under the fence and digging it into his back. Gotta fix that.
Charlie just got back from working out of town since Monday. So glad he's back. Don't know how single parents do it. I would be the meanest mom in the world. Also missed being able to just go to him and ramble like I do. Don't think he missed that part.
School is going well for Elyse and Zane. She has joined the robotic team - for now anyway. I'm hoping she sticks with it and that the meeting times aren't too difficult. She's doing well in her classes which I'm happy about since I've always heard the magnet schools were hard.
Of course Zane went back to cub scouts. I love that he gets that interaction. He's got all A's so far. I'm proud.
Ari is a wild maniac that likes to talk a lot and ask a lot of questions. I'm learning patience. She loves games and is really good with the computer.
Actually all 3 kids love games and are good with the computer. Charlie has gotten Elyse and Zane hooked on world of warcraft and they fight on who gets to play when.
I suppose thats all I've got for now. I'll put some pictures below of our every day life.
We did an experiment and found That Ari's head is way way harder than Elyse's.


Ari and I were princesses.















It just worked so much better on her.

I finished the books too! Man, they were good! I'm gonna miss reading them.
Glad Elyse and Zane are both doing well in school. The robotics thing sounds pretty cool.
Loved the pics.

What is the robotic team?

Hey Maureen,

Does Kara have a blog? She commented on my blog and I wanted to visit hers, but when I click on her name there is not a blog title. If she does, can you ask her if I can visit? I really like Kara and would like to get in touch with her again.
