As parents, it is important to that we teach our children to share. And it is usually a source of pride to see them doing so…crayons with their neighbors at school, toys with their siblings and friends.

However, we also need to teach them NOT to share the stomach bug with their parents.

Pictures in honor of the rain we are getting and the flooding of rivers, streams and basements.

what it normally looks like…

And what it looks like today…

why does it always feel the need to rain/snow/sleet…on this day, of all days? It never fails. Oh well, such is life. Other than stinky weather and all that, I hope that today goes well.

A picture to fit the weather, bet they will be happy.

there is a investment company commercial where they say, “when I grow up I want to…” Which got me thinking, what do I want? For years I knew where life was going, what I was doing. Now I am trying to figure out what I want to do when I grow up.

…downpours. I guess we need the rain, but it sure does make me sleepy

This past week has been absolutely beautiful. I have watched the crocus flower and I am waiting now for the daffodils and tulips. I love the warm weather and sunshine and cant wait for the apple trees to flower. I am happy spring is here.

I was checking things out and ran across some really old things, which needed to be updated. so I started with this one…I hope I “fixed” everything. Having said that, every time I go back and look at it, I find something else that needs to be fixed or added/subtracted because it just isn’t true anymore…lots of things change in 6 years.

About Me

I have this song stuck in my head, seems like the other day, every time I got in the car it was on the radio…now I just cant forget it.

Lee Brice, Love Like Crazy

They called them crazy when they started out
Said seventeen’s too young to know what loves about
They’ve been together fifty-eight years now
That’s crazy

He brought home sixty-seven bucks a week
He bought a little 2 bedroom house on Maple Street
Where she blessed him with six more mouths to feed
Yea that’s crazy

Just ask him how he did it; he’ll say pull up a seat
It’ll only take a minute, to tell you everything
Be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse I Love You
Go to work, do your best, don’t outsmart your common since
Never let your prayin’ knees get lazy
And love like crazy

They called him crazy when he quit his job
Said them home computers, boy they’ll never take off
He sold his one man shop to Microsoft
They paid like crazy

Just ask him how he made it
He’ll tell you faith and sweat
And the heart of a faithful woman,
Who never let him forget

Be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse I Love You
Go to work, do your best, don’t outsmart your common since
Never let your prayin knees get lazy
And love like crazy

Always treat your woman like a lady
Never get to old to call her baby
Never let your prayin knees get lazy
And love like crazy

They called him crazy when they started out
They’ve been together fifty-eight years now

Aint that crazy?

Now I’ve just got to figure out if it is just a faerie tale or not…

So, things have changed in my life (Divorced)…change can be very unsettling, and for the most part things have gone very well (kids have adjusted well). In other ways things are still a struggle(job hunt). I sometimes question my judgment about things and feel like I should flip a coin and let things happen as they may.

I plan to take a trip to the shore in a few days, I need a day to sit, reflect, think…clear some cobwebs out and let the sunshine, and salt air in, recharge batteries. I will leave my old life behind and let my new one start.

you dont know how much you miss something till it is gone…and I am very happy this is now back. So much has changed in the last year, things I didnt want to talk about online, still dont to some extent, but I dont have to worry about as much now.

Spring has almost sprung and my new life is starting as well.

thank you David
