Ten On Tuesday

1. A big WooHoo for starting the work/school week on a Tuesday! Love me some three day weekends!!

2. Kids soccer games start this week so we will soon be on that crazy schedule. We enjoy it, though, even if it is a little busy and sometimes a scheduling issue.

3. Can a thought be cliche? Well, this one probably is, but... do you ever see a sky like this and think "GOD"? Something about the rays behind the cloud and a silver lining...


This was a beauty of a sunrise the other morning.

4. Did you watch Lost? Ross just cut his own hair (apparently the 90+ degrees in Sept was too much and he was over the whole sweaty head thing). Anyway, with this haircut and weekend of not shaving, Ross looks a little like Jack Shepard.
Do you see it?


5. Two years ago, we moved here and Hurricane Ike travelled through and we lost power for 11 days!! I can't hear news of the hurricanes and see our wind blow and not think of cold showers and dark nights!! Yes, I said hurricane, and yes, we live in Ohio...

6. Speaking of living in our house for two years... I was thinking about it and realized that this is the longest I have lived in one house/dwelling since I was in high school! The longest time in any one location/city is four years. That is for my entire life... I wonder if my itch to move every so often will ever go away??

7. Zoey turns 8 this month. Craziness.

8. I gave the kids a piece of gum the other day (they hadn't had any in a while apparently), because I got sidetracked and when I came back to see what was happening, they both had swallowed it! They claimed they forgot that you don't swallow gum when you are done with it!! What did I do? I scared them with the whole seven years in your stomach thing of course...

9. The weather is weird. One day 92 degrees. The next day 72.

10. Some times this summer we watched Who Wants to Be a Millionaire on TV. We now have conversations like this...
Me: What do you want for your snack?
Kid: That would be C. Pretzels, final answer.
