I am trying to think cool thoughts while the thermometer explodes. Given that I still have my hands full while Sweet Boy recovers from his recent surgery I decided to repost this oldie but goodie. It originally was featured in March of 2008 where it was viewed by a whopping 1 person. Here is Wayfaring Wednesday Cool Cozumel. Mr. Décor and I had not had an ALONE vacation in over 10 years. For our 10th anniversary we went on a cruise. Our second port stop was the island of Cozumel (Mexico). You ... View the Post
When the Tooth Fairy Comes to Visit for the Last Time
A few days ago Sweet Boy had some fairly extensive dental surgery. An oral surgeon removed a total of 5 teeth to prepare him for braces next week. Two of the teeth were so badly impacted that the normally 30 minute procedure took close to two hours. (Yes, mom was a basket case.) But greater pain was in store for me that night. As we prepared for bed Sweet Boy sighed and said I need to prepare for When the Tooth Fairy Comes to Visit for the Last Time. It was true. The surgeon had removed all ... View the Post

On Wednesday I took my 9 1/2-year-old Sweet Boy on our annual pilgrimage to see the Easter Bunny. As his sister is 22 years old I have had many visits with this well suited furry friend.

What’s On Your To Do List and Oscar Entertainment
My next door neighbors are refinishing their pool. I hear a constant buzzing hum right outside my office window. There had better be a pool party soon Phyllis! (Hee hee~ She reads the blog.) It’s all give and take since I imagine she and Al probably wondered what was going on at our house last weekend. We had a houseguest and two dinner parties this past weekend. Like myself, the house is still in recovery mode. While I have washed all of the table linens, I have not cleared off the sideboard, ... View the Post
Let’s Talk About Love
I don’t normally post on the weekend. I made the decision early on in blogging that I would instead spend time with my guy and his mini-me and mine. But I was pulled out of bed in the wee small hours of the morning wanting to talk about love. Yes, this involves a story. As Red Smith once said, “Writing is easy, you just sit down at a typewriter, open up a vein, and bleed it out drop by drop.” And so it goes, Let’s Talk About Love. Let’s Talk About Love Yesterday I received a card from my ... View the Post
Catching the Gingerbread Dog
Yesterday I spent the day with these Christmas cuties. We were Catching the Gingerbread Dog. We had a bit of lunch. Then spent the afternoon making delightful Gingerbread Houses. The boys sprinted to finish their house, while the girls were so detail oriented. Surprise, surprise. They would like you to vote for your favorite as I could not decide. Gingerbread houses Rudi was team lead on the cleanup crew. The evening before I attended a grand event, Moonlight, ... View the Post
