what she is
Posted at 7:20 am | Filed Under Family
Today is Emily’s 14th birthday! I can’t believe it! What a girl she is, so full of surprises…She makes my heart warm. I got to see her this weekend, and see for real how grown up and mature she really is.
She is bright, clever, smart. She does her homework on vacation and she will [...]

Chicago Calling

Phew….the calm after the storm? Hasn’t quite hit yet. I just sent off the last of my IB Internal Assessments. All of my "long term" assignments have been crossed off…one history paper, one extended essay, one TOK prescribed title, two biology labs, two chemistry labs, and too too many days of stress behind me now…I’m [...]

Yes, Hannah goes to the Art gallery every Tuesday for an art class…it’s right at the same time that I have Chemistry at school, so we drive her to the Mendoza’s and they take her since Rose goes too. Desley told me a very cute story last night when I picked her up, about how [...]

Great King Rat

I am sitting here with my bagel and cream cheese (fresh from Grandma’s Kitchen) and my EARL Gray Tea (this is how I stay connected with Earl, just kidding, I’m sick) thinking that this is a pleasant meal…and then I remember what I was going to talk about this morning, and kind of lose my [...]

And Then There’s Hannah…
Posted at 8:04 am | Filed Under Family
Last night Hannah got to sleep in my bed, mostly because it was her birthday, but also because of the new house and my room is closest to done, but she fell asleep pretty fast. I was finishing up some schoolwork downstairs and Mommy came down and told me that the fun of sleeping in [...]

But You Don’t Even Try

Yesterday was Emily’s birthday. She turned 13, and the downside of all this fun moving stuff is that it happened right on top of her birthday, so things kind of got pushed aside. Like a birthday blog post…but there are things the world needs to know about Miss Emily G, so a post I must [...]

Moving On

Just finished watching the Sing-Along version of Camp Rock on TV. Man, I love that movie. Speaking of the Jonas Brothers, Emily has asked for tickets to see them for her upcoming 13th (!) birthday…so Mommy and Tony are treating us and allowing Emily, Sarah, Amanda, Hannah and myself to go see them in Chicago [...]

Back Again

Hey! Long time no see! I know I know, I’m bad for not blogging in like forever, but it’s summer, and I’m not waking up at 7:30 anymore (thankfully) and it’s hard to remember to blog after noon. It’s hard to remember anything after noon. This is what’s been happening though:
I spent last week at [...]

Summer Days
Posted at 12:40 pm | Filed Under Family, Reading
Hmm…well I accomplished nothing yesterday. Today I will try to change that. I actually set an alarm yesterday, but when I got up the Ellen DeGeneres show was on and Simon Cowell was on, and you know I can’t resist some Idol. I’ll take it where I can find it. This morning however, I did [...]

Girls Just Want to Have Fun
Posted at 12:25 pm | Filed Under Family
Well we got back safely yesterday from the Sibling Camping Extravaganza-’08 style…this summer trip was a little bit more laissez-faire than last years trip. It took a while for us to leave Saturday morning, but we finally did. Mommy had made a comment on the 4th that after the trips to Ottawa and Winnipeg, Sarah [...]
