Another day in paradise...

Alex just cracks me up sometimes...today we're going through some stuff for our up and coming yard sale and he comes across something of his in the "sale pile". Without hesitation, while holding his re-found treasure, he quips, "This is a crime scene here." Who else but my firstborn son would consider it a crime scene when he found out that I put something of his in the yard sale items???
It was a nice interruption in an otherwise ugh! kind of day for me. I haven't been feeling well since Sunday...my ears have been bothering me again due to my sinuses. This is usually a winter thing for me so it took me by surprise to be feeling so off in the middle of the summer. I ended up going to the doctor today (one of my least favorite things to do), but I can't be having ear problems with a flight to Alaska coming up in a few weeks. I'm now on an antibiotic and prescription decongestant...but whatever it takes at this point to get my ears ready for flight - and get me less on edge around those whom I love the most.
Sorry, my boys, for being a little short on patience these past few days...forgive me for I do not mean to be so snappy at you. I love you!

home of the Braves

As a metro Atlanta resident, it seems almost a requirement to go to a Braves game to continue living here. I grew up watching baseball and loving the game...and have been to a few games in St. Louis, Cincinnati, Detroit...and of course, Atlanta. The problem for me going to a Braves game is purely mental...having been a Mets and Cardinals fan for years, I just haven't the love necessary for the Braves to call me a fan. However, as with many things in life that I haven't particularly enjoyed over the years, my boys make it so worth my time and heart. I go watch the Braves because I love my boys...and my boys and I love baseball. Well, they love what they know of the game...still in training, but getting the hang of the lingo and SOP's of a baseball fan rather well. There are a few things that remain the same from stadium to stadium..."the wave" (Braves' attendees do not always get into this, which is very di...

Wednesday's Walk...Janis Lynn

In searching for a photo from my senior year in college, I was bombarded with sweet, sweet memories of one of my closest college friends....Janis Lynn MacLeish. I met Janis in the fall of 1993 when she came to Taylor University Fort Wayne. She was in my wing of Lexington Hall. Although, I was her RA, Janis taught me so much about life and living in a very short time that I often felt she did a better job leading than I ever could. Life was never the same for me after she and I became friends. It was oh, so much better! The room brightened when Janis finally awoke and entered through the door of one. She befriended the likes of anyone and made no enemies...except for the girls who were jealous of her for one reason or another. Her laughter echoed throughout the halls everyday. One knew when Janis was away for the weekend for it was creepily quiet on campus. Janis ...
