Thoughts on the Weekend

String cheese is hard to eat while driving.

So is easy cheese.

Miscommunication runs rampant even when everyone has a cell phone.

I prefer pork chops to steak.

I don’t care for public hot tubs.

Hotels that don’t recycle are lame.

Women + moustaches = not good & slightly frightening.

Nothing tastes better than an ice cold beer on a hot sunny day. (well, maybe ice cream…)

My cousins drink a lot of beer.

Teeing off with a marshmallow is not as easy as it sounds.

I love my 5 wood.

I can make good shots when there’s no pressure.

BJ gives excellent golfing advice.

Cheesy potatoes are goooooooooood.

My Dad is a superhero.

I love the fact that my whole big crazy family gets together several times a year.

Eating too much and feeling bloated for hours sucks ass.

I don’t like gambling. I’m way too cheap.

Spilling your entire glass of Diet Coke on the floor sucks! At least there were free refills.

Driving home alone is a lot easier & less painful when I know someone’s there waiting for me.

I know! I ended up picking up my various family members empties and taking them home with me (70 miles away) to recycle them myself. Stupid.

And yes, there was a woman working at the front desk with a moustache....I'm still trying to work that one out. Gender confusion? Perhaps...but she definitely dressed like a woman...weird...

I should've done this a year ago....

A pandemic game time & conversation (via Zoom)   Well, we're about 13 months into this pandemic and I should've been back blogging then. I mean, I was home an awful lot. I could've done it. But I didn't. I wrote in my actual journal but that's a crazy mish-mash of stuff. This would've been fun to keep just pandemic stuff. Ah well, live and learn. I'll be ready for the next one (no, no, I won't). It's been a year...a year of ups and downs; of being laid off and re-hired; of wondering what to do with my life and starting grad school. We got fish, we got two kittens. What a year.  Kids have mostly been troopers but there have been some tough days. August went back to hybrid last fall, then everything stopped for a while and went back to 5 days a week in February - hooray! Dahlia finally got to start hybrid in.....February? (I can't remember) and then started back in person 4 days a week...but after her first 4 days she was identified as a "

Penguin Shenanigans

Image
For our 2020 Winter Reading program, there wasn't an overall theme. I decided to create my own theme. And the Penguins took over the library! I printed out real-to-life sized photographs of penguins...an Emperor, a Fairy, a Chinstrap and a Galapagos Penguin to be exact. I put them on the walls in one area. My hope was that kids would stand next to them and measure up - and they sure did! It put a smile on my face every time. Above each penguin I included some facts. Usually where they lived, what they ate and any quirky stuff about them. It's always great to be able to provide a little learning opportunity along the way. We also included penguin voting. I always think it's fun to add a pre-math activity when I can. I made 4 buckets with a photo of each of the aforementioned penguins. Kids (& adults) were able to ask for a "voting token" (ie: a saved bottle cap) at the desk and then put it in the bucket of their choice. It was fun hearing t

and IT'S A GIRL!! I'll do a proper introduction later and the whole story and everything but in the meantime, we had a baby girl. 2:15pm on Friday afternoon (I posted at, what? 10;30am? You do the math!!). Her name is Dahlia Marie and she weighed in at a whopping 6lbs even. 19 1/4" long and so incredibly gorgeous (although, I might be a wee bit biased). The birth was the most amazing experience I've ever been through and my mind is still, well, blown, quite frankly. I am so tired though...time for a quick nap before we try to feed again.
