Posted on January 14, 2010 by skye

Things that happened today

Posted on January 12, 2010 by skye

If you follow my ramblings on Facebook, you know that I was busy yesterday. Elbow-deep in paperwork. And frustrated. And if you don’t follow my ramblings on Facebook, well…I’m telling you now: I was busy yesterday. Elbow-deep in paperwork. And … Continue reading →

I missed a day!

Posted on January 11, 2010 by skye

I was doing good there — blogging a little something every day. I had planned to write a little post yesterday, but the day got away form me. Chad is still feeling crummy. He said his headache was tolerable for … Continue reading →

Posted on January 9, 2010 by skye

On the mend? Maybe?

Not a good start to the day

Posted on January 5, 2010 by skye

I hoped Chad would feel little better this morning. He had an appointment scheduled for some bloodwork at 9:30, and he was going to join me for the fabulous carpool drop-offs this morning. However, when he woke up, he was … Continue reading →

Another day in Winston

Posted on January 4, 2010 by skye

Today has been so very long and exhausting. We drug poor Cailyn along with us, because we honestly thought it would be a quick trip to see Dr. T, Chad’s neurosurgeon. Turned out not to be so true. I guess … Continue reading →
