All Work and No Play

Sunday, October 22nd, 2006

Today was another productive day. I woke up early so got a shower and worked on e-mail for a while. Then when Deb got up she brought me coffee, o.j., and a Deb McMuffin. Alice had stayed at 4th St. and I stayed at Deb’s, so Alice came back to pick us up, and we […]

I’m so excited . .And I just can’t hide it!

Saturday, October 21st, 2006

I can’t believe it! Today with the help of Jerome, Janet, and Alice, I actually got Kelley Ridge liveable again. After I moved all the stuff out of 4th Street, I had no idea where to put everything and still make room to have some semblance of order. Jerome and Janet have “the eye,” and […]

Good Friends

Friday, October 20th, 2006

I left as soon as I could after school. I had to to the Valley to get Greg. Then I dropped him off at Deb’s before meeting Nancy and Mor-Mor at the Hampton Inn. We talked for a while and then went out to eat. We wanted to go to Red Lobster, but there was […]

Valley Time

Tuesday, October 17th, 2006

I tried to make it to Mass at Sacred Heart, but I was too late. It was really disappointing. I had been looking forward to it all day. But then my principal wanted me to do some other stuff for report cards, and so I was late. I feel as if I’m missing my chance […]

Treat Your Grandparents Well

Sunday, October 15th, 2006

You must look at my daughter in England. Click on England Blog link on my main page. Caitlan is at Oxford looking matriculated. I want my sons to post pictures of where they are in their respective cities. Last night I should have done all kinds of business, but I accidentally started watching FATHER OF […]

Booger Truck Saves the Day

Monday, October 9th, 2006

Okay, so I was just minding my own business this morning. I guess it was about 6, 6:30 a.m. It wasn’t light yet, but I like to wake up early and see the sun coming up. It was a little chilly–nice morning for the beginning of fall. I don’t move around much any more. You […]

And Now the Time Has Come

Thursday, September 28th, 2006

I knew I had to start blogging again because I so expect Caitlan to do so when she goes to England. I miss more frequent entries from both my sons, but I can’t rag them when I post even less frequently. I have used si-kus such as, “I’ll start when KK leaves,” or “When things […]

Seth is Confirmed without Vomitting

Sunday, June 4th, 2006

I got up early today and spend time doing menial chores at Kelley Ridge before driving to the Valley to join Mombo and the Greystone bunch on Ms. Susan Toad’s Wild Ride to Campbellsville. We made it in time to witness Bub sponsoring Deutsch as Aiden in his Confirmation in the Faith, even though he […]

Double the Graduations; Double the Fun

Saturday, May 13th, 2006

Caitlan Claire and Nicholas James both graduated today–KK from Georgetown and Nic from Bellarmine. Both will carry on their educations–Nic at Auburn pursuing an academic adventure in veterinary medicine and KK at Oxford experiencing an educational endeavor involving political science and economics. Admission into either of these programs is no small potatoes! It was absolutely […]

English Class a la Carte

Monday, May 8th, 2006

I got to eat at Deb’s tonight since she was having her grad class over. It was all veggie fare–red lentil soup with raita, tabbouli, deviled eggs and dill pickles, tuna salad, and some kind of yummy pasta salad with pine nuts, sweet red peppers, and Greek olives. Lots of good bread, herbal tea or […]
