20 year high school reunion

I went to my 20 year high school reunion this past Saturday. It was better than I expected... kinda bittersweet. I saw people that I hadn't seen since the last reunion; a lot of our rough edges have worn off.

Blog posting thingie

I'm starting a blog, and I'm going to try for the title of "lamest blog on the internet." Gee, with postings like this, I'm sure to be a shoo-in! : ) I'm a stay-at-home mom, and it's the summer, and all I want to do is figure out how to get rid of the darling kids for just one month. It's not like I'm counting the days until school starts, or anything...

My friends who are "good moms" treasure every minute with their kids. Summer is the time to connect, right? Well, anything that happens 24/7 is tooo much. More later....
