New Season


New Season it is! Holy cow it is cold out! How did it go from summer temps last week to now I'm debating putting on the heat ... shhhh don't tell my husband! I mean that was a quick change! New routines, new classrooms, new friends, new weather ... it's part of the deal with the new school year right?

I did have a great Summer season ... although it was so crazy with soccer and swim that it flew by! I love the warmth and sounds of the season. I truly will be one of those "snowbirds" who spends the winter down South!

This is a crazy pic of Sophie and I on the beach on obx in August. She truly can be present and loves life ... although her name should be Silly Sophie as she always entertains us!

But now that it is getting to be the busy season of Fall I have found myself forced to get organized again (thank God!) and use my time efficiently. I have found that the whole food thing we all are familiar with ... "What's for dinner?" to be extremely easy. How? Keeping it Simple! "Cook once and eat three times?" Yep, it is a tool that I was actually patting myself on the back this week as The Today Show had on Martha Stewart who was offering the same advice! Wow...really? I usually shake my head when I see her on tv pushing some ridiculous dessert or paella dish that I just don't have the time to make ... or even want to make ... but this one made my day!

My family is happy and I'm happy. No big deal!

You know the old quote:
If Momma ain't happy, nobody's happy!


And I rest my case :)




Goodbye Summer! See ya next year!

Welcome to my Blog!

Thanks for visiting my blog ... I decided to write it as there were many concerned friends and family that needed to learn about this phase of my life - leading up to surgery on February 8th. I have now had the surgery and am recovering here at home. I love all your comments! They make me smile and I am so truly inspired by them! I can not believe how much support there is out there...it matters so much to us! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
