Stop – Negotiation Time

Uh oh, uh oh uh oh uh oh.  Can’t touch this.
In the next few weeks its order negotiation time.  I have to admit that those mixed feelings about reenlisting are a constant companion these days.  Im pretty sure everyone goes through it to some degree.  Its a big decision to make.  We are lucky, living [...]

Non-Religious Adult Choir? Anyone???

Okay I need to complain a little.  Why is it that I cannot find a choir for adults, that isn’t at a church, or isn’t only seniors.  I love to sing.  I have my entire life.  I did sing in the church choir as a kid, but I kind of fell of the God wagon.  [...]

Happy St Patrick’s Day

We were pretty chill at our house.  We went for a walk with baby girl, then made some quesadilla’s, and had a few beers.  Nothing to exactly write home about, but it was nice.
Whatever you did today, I hope you [...]

A Nice Diversion

We went to the Red Wings game last night.  We brought Baby Girl, and she was awesome.  The game itself was really good and the Wings won in overtime.  I am not sure why… but it seems like we always go to games that end up in overtime.  Weird.  It was nice to go out [...]

A Little Overwhelmed

Wow, well the past week has been crazy.  We had some family in from out of town for D’s grandma’s funeral yesterday.  It was nice to have everyone together, but hard that the funeral was the reason.  We had a bunch of D’s family over our house on Saturday, and we got to catch up and relax before [...]
