X — Marks the Spot

February 25, 2011

McDaddy is out of town again this week and it is quiet in our house. The boys are asleep and I’m doing my nightly blog post from the couch while watching American Idol. A week like this one is not rare for us, but it never gets easier. McDaddy is no doubt saving the world one control system at [...]

I Have A Confession

February 14, 2011

Dr. McDaddy, I have a confession. And before you ask, no, I did not max out the credit card. While the girls and I were in North Carolina over the weekend, we stopped at the Concord Mills Mall. There, we enjoyed four glorious uninterrupted hours of shopping. There was A LOT of mall and not A LOT of time, so [...]

Thursday Thirteen – Random Ramblings

September 22, 2010

I will do my absolute best to hammer out thirteen random things today. But you should know that I am hyped up on Sudafed and water. Yes, I said water. Seems someone the maid forgot to stop by the grocery store for my beloved Dr. Pepper and so I’m sitting here in my big, blue, bloggy [...]

Another Post About The Heap, er, I Mean Jeep

August 31, 2010

It’s back to school around here and that means we are back to answering to that darn alarm clock. I hate my alarm clock and I hate the back-to-the-grind schedule. We lay out clothes, pack snacks, and place the backpack right next to the door so that our morning routine goes smoothly. I am counting [...]

365 Days

August 1, 2010

I am sitting in my big, blue, bloggy chair watching Big Brother. It has been a long day spent mostly on the road from South Carolina to our home in West Virginia. I spent the day thinking about what I was doing one year ago today. There was the little matter of deployment and on [...]
