Misc. Friday Stuff

TGIF!  Fall is arriving here in Michigan and I’m really enjoying watching the color come.  I don’t know why, but this year I am really enjoying it.  That doesn’t mean I’m looking forward to snow but I’ll be ready by the time it gets here (unless it gets here before Halloween)
This is my last weekend [...]

Let The “Freak Out” Begin

It’s starting to dawn on me that I only have 4 more work days, including today, to get everything off my desk so it can be repiled (is that a word?) while I’m gone.  In the 4 1/2 years that I have been in this department I have never taken an entire week off while [...]

“Nesting” only different

I think in a way I’m “nesting” right now.  Two weeks from tomorrow is my surgery and I want to make sure that everything is in order before I go down to being just left handed for a week.  The doctor says that I will be able to resume normally activity with my right hand [...]

Thursday’s Theme: Three

I think I have a good shot for this week’s theme.
A couple of weeks ago we were headed “home” to see our parents. We were approaching Alma and I saw this big “o” in the sky. Then I looked to the North a little bit and noticed the word “ALMA” spelled out in [...]

Stars on Ice . . .

. . . not exactly, but Steve and I have been doing quite a bit of ice skating lately.  It’s really good therapy for him and great exercise for the both of us!  Friday night we went to Mt. Pleasant, Saturday we went to one of the many arenas in Grand Rapids, Sunday we came [...]
