The Little Trainer
Hi Everyone. Happy Monday and Happy Columbus Day to all my US peeps. Also the DH and I thank you all so much for all our sweet anniversary
wishes.I realize it’s been a while since I’ve written what Jack has been up to, maybe giving the impression that he’s slowed down or hasn’t been up to much. Uh, no, not the case. Jack has been his usual wild boy self and I think, has even taken it up a notch since the Dear Twins are off to college. He seems to have assumed the role of only child in the house, becoming extra needy and giving the DH and me all sorts of flack whenever we leave the house. Oh and let us don’t have the nerve to try and sleep in sleep in for say our anniversary or something. He will make sure to wake us up extra early anyway with moans and whines that escalate until even the neighbors are knocking ready to feed and walk him. Oh Jack.
And there here are the little surprises when we do try and exercise our new found freedom as empty nesters and say, go out? See exhibit A below:
This little ditty, I happened to walk in on before Jack could successfully hide it fully under the couch and get the box completely open. How he got to it on the counter, I’ll never know. But the hot dog bread a few days later did not fare as well. The DH was so not happy since he was all ready for hot hog complete with sauerkraut, which he loves. All that said if you had been thinking I’ve got it good here now that the twins are off to college, that I’m now footloose and fancy free, oh no. Jack’s making sure to take up the slack and then some so that when the twins come home for break I’ll be sure to be in fighting shape. Thanks Jack.
Best,
Kwana

Happy 22nd Anniversary DH!
22 is such a lovely number.
So much has passed between us and yet still, so much is left to be read.
11 + 11 full of mystery and possibilities
Lucky for us
2 + 2 adds up to…
Love Forever,

Getting Better
I’m not quite 100% yet but I’d say I’m floating on the edge, a little unfocused and not quite paying attention to the camera like Ringo here but hey, I’m in the picture. Hope your day is great!

Ahh Choo!!
Please excuse my disappearance. I seem to have caught a bug with this change in weather. Hope to be back and feeling fit soon. Stay well peeps.

And I Think I Know A Lot…
Well not as much as I’d like, but hey enough to make me reasonably stable and all. What am I talking about? Why it’s LOVE. And my Fresh Meat talk over at Heroes and Heartbreakers about the new book by Sarah Wendell: EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT LOVE I LEARNED FROM ROMANCE NOVELS. It’s such a good book and I think romance and especially you romance skeptics should check it out.
So head on over to Heroes and Heartbreakers to see what I have to say on this subject. Go here. Thanks!

Going Green
No, not quite in the way you’re thinking. See yesterday was National Coffee Day (not sure how true this is but it was twitter true so I decided to take it as gospel) and because of this I think I may have drank my weight in coffee.
So now I’m thinking I need to go a little (LITTLE operative word) Green to counteract all that dark brew. Can’t hurt and the benefits could be good for my RA. I’m wondering what small changes are you making for your health? Any?
Happy Friday!

Rise and Shine
Hey maybe even put on your good robe. That coffee is not going to drink itself and you do want to look your best at all times don’t you?
Happy Wednesday!

Learning Curve
I hope you all had a good weekend. My DH and I got to go and see my DS for our first parent’s weekend at his college last week. The week before I
tipped away and went to the DD’s school to take her out to dinner. I guess we are all going through our own sort of learning curve right now. Them with it’s how to get used to living in a new environment and handling school and life and things like time management without me hovering. And with me it’s just about the same. A new home environment, time management without kids to manage and getting used to life without the momsey hovering (though I do find a way from a distance). I wonder if I can get some type of tutoring for this.
Best,

Happy Birthday Ma!
Happy birthday to my wonderful, amazing, irreverent, smart, beautiful, you can clearly run out of adjectives to describe… MOM!
