If only!


Sometimes I think our furry friends have it all right. Do we ever take time just to look? As I was working around the house I came upon Ted just staring out the window. Nothing really there, just taking time to look. Probably wishing he could be outside sniffing all the great things the neighborhood furries have left behind.
This is what I call down time, maybe next time I will join him!

This is for Kev!




Well not just for Kev, just some pics of Ted and his new haircut. Really have not done much and I guess you could figure that since I am posting pictures of Ted' grooming! I have to say I am enjoying all the family blogs. I love reading and seeing pictures of everyone and all the mishaps(yes Carol that means taking Chandler to school when there really is none)

New Year, Right?

I feel like this past week I have been in a fog, Getting a cold on the 2nd day of the new year and still feeling the effects.
We got Gloria sent home on Sunday, by her own accounts a 7 day visit is all she should do and I am in total agreement. She is very much used to moving about at her pace and her time clock, which is about 7 hours later than the rest of the world!
It really was a nice visit and we had a nice holiday, but I am glad it is over. I am looking forward to time being spent with Jen, Chris and Avery, Brad, Mary Catherine and Matilda.
I also need to think about getting time with my own Mother. I have spent a lot of time with Gloria over the past couple of years and I really want to pay attention to my Mom a bit. I just have to figure out how. I also would love some alone time with my husband and again, HOW??
Oh well I have a good feeling we will change our situation this year. I am sure it will mean a move but we all know in our lovely economy you go where you work. We have been apart for a full year and it is enough! So think positive thoughts.

to all

Thanks all for the Birthday wishes! We had a wonderful time at Biltmore, such a place to see. I will get some pics posted. You can't take pictures inside but we took a few outside. It was so nice to get to do something I have wanted to do for over ten years and to top it off it was my birthday.
Love all the Christmas pictures Trish took. Really missing the family...
