Ewwww.....I saw my first spider of the season today! Ugh, nasty!

What is that???

This morning while the kids and I were sitting at the table eating breakfast, I hear the most obnoxious beeping sound. Beep, beep, beep, beep...pause...beep, beep, beep. That rhythm went on for quite a few minutes. I was starting to drive me crazy!! What was making that noise?!?! It was very faint and I could not figure out where it was coming from.
So, I set off on my search for the annoying mysterious beep!
My search lead me to open the back patio door, where I heard the sound loud and clear.....
It was a bird, singing so sweetly in the tree. The "beep" I heard inside was actually a bird chirping outside and welcoming spring.
It turned out to be such a wonderful sound and I even opened up the window by our table so the kids were able to hear it.
Its been a long, long time since we have heard the chirpping of birds, and it pains me to think that it's been so long since I have heard them that I have forgotten what they sound like.
BRING ON SPRING!!

Friends Forever by: Zach Attack

I have been extremely blessed with an incredible friend. I find myself continuously thankful for her. She is loyal and true, funny and reliable.
Best of all, she knows all about me, and still wants to be my friend!
This friend is humble, and won't even think that this post is about her :)
I have lots of great friends in my life, but she is my "best" friend (Geez - I haven't used that term since 1984 Oooh....NKOTB!!)
I can tell her anything and know that, without a doubt, she will not judge me.
We can hang out and have great conversations, but best of all, we can hang out and have not so great conversations! We can talk about the difficulties in life and lean on each other for support. I know that I can honestly call her anytime, day or night and she knows that the same goes for her with me.

Are you blessed to have a friend like that? If so, why don't you tell them how much you appreciate them? Or say a little thankful prayer about them?

And, as you count your blessings, make sure you count them twice!

Ode to the backspace

I could have sesworn that I was knowlegfgdgebale and educaitedm but apparleenl , ugh, apparently, I am not none of those things without my backspace key.
Enjoy the small things today!!

Blog Virgin

The anticipation is killing me! So many questions.....so little answers.
Will anybody read this? Will anybody care? How do I tell people that I am now blogging without people thinking that I am expecting them to read it?
I'm not even going to try and be funny just for the sake of well, being funny. I'm determined to write what is going on in our lives and if it puts a smile on your face, then great! (Unless I wasn't trying to put a smile on your face....)
The pressure of the blog!! I feel like the first blog has to be interesting enough for people to want to return to read future blogs.
It can't be too long or people will lose interest, but gosh, I have a lot to say!
These things really should have a word count on them so it prevents people like me from rambling on and on and on......
So, my first blog experience is over. Was it as good for you as it was for me?
Hang in there with me and I hope to have a fun time with this thing. I am looking forward to sharing news, thoughts, random items, whatevers with you.
Now, go tell everyone you know about my blog!
