Doc appointment on Thursday. Hoping for good news. Today was kinda long...but I don't know why. There isn't much to say really...just thought I should pop
in and make myself known.

I'm looking for a major shake-up to jolt me from this..I don't know..."sameness" my days are becoming. It's one into another lately...and the monotony is dulling my senses. Bill wants to go away the end of October as he has the week off. HOWEVER...there is no one to take the kids so....I'd say the liklihood is slim to none. Which is entirely too bad as our trip in April...kinda got sidetracked. It would be NICE to get away though.

Ayyyy Matey, 'tis Talk Like A Pirate Day. Arrrr....

So grab some grog, drop anchor, and say Arrrr (you know you want to.)

and just cause it's fun....go get your pirate name....and tell me just what your name be~

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!

My pirate name is:

Black Charity Rackham

Like anyone confronted with the harshness of robbery on the high seas, you can be pessimistic at times. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

We Shall Not Forget!

Meant to post this sooner...This is most of the family at the Chargers game.

I had a few more to post but they come out sideways when I try and load them...I'll have to work on that.

The kids found several new uses for the foam fingers...which is why they currently are put away. *RME*

This is Zander.

This was taken at 25 weeks.

We are currently entering the 27th week

That means in as little as 13 weeks, we will have

a baby in the house again.

~There is SO much to do before then~

Sigh....we lost...in the final 2 seconds of the game. Oh well, there is always the NEXT game. It will be against Southern Miss(ssippi) and then we're against FSU. (EEK) This year the schedule is tough. BC, FSU, NC, Wake, The Terps, Maryland. Georgia Tech and Clemson. Amato better get those boys together if he wants to stay in Raleigh.

I was wandering thru the house, and as I walked into my bedroom, this delicious breeze came wafting through the window. The blinds were blowing into the room, and I felt the coolness caress my cheek. I stopped dead in my tracks, as the thought ran through my head "This is wonderful...this feels, nice...this feels...happy." Then the pure joy of that emotion came fully into me...I'm happy....life, today, is good...

It's been 26 years today since my Daddy died. I can't say it ever gets easier...I can say I don't dwell on it now though. There are even days at a time I don't think about him....but then there are little reminders....my son is left handed...he gets that from my Daddy. My kids like to read...I like to read...we get that from my Daddy. Sometimes I look at the kids and feel so sad for them that they never got to meet their grandfather. He would have so doted on his grandchildren. He didn't get to walk me down the aisle...he didn't teach me to drive...didn't warn off my high school boyfriends. But..he has always been with me and there are days I just think it's incredibly unfair that I had to grow up with out him.

I miss you Daddy....
