There you go. Now you know more of me than you did. Perhaps more than you ever wanted to know, but that's what blogging is all about. It's my journal, my radiohead, for all to peer into, disect and see how I tick.

You can amuse yourself and do this too. Thanks for the inspiration, Christina T.
AAhhh, Summer.
Baseball,
Waterballoon fights,
everyday sibling fights,
Reading a book at the park while the kids play,
Going to a play,
more baseball,
opening the windows to save on the power bill,
Sunday night doesn't mean it's all over,
Baseball tournament
now that D's team is actually hitting!
Summer read:

Fabulous story, long, but Chuck never disappoints.
I have to finish it so I can watch my Masterpiece movie.

Can't wait to play with y'all.

Pedicure girls: I haven't forgotton you. Let's get together.
