What the heck….it’s midnight and I’m just now starting my blog post. That’s what happens when our kids are home from college….we somehow start to think we can stay up as late as they do. Tonight it was unintentional — but it happened. I should have known I was in for a late night when … Read More
“I’m not dead yet”
As if bloggers need a reason to blog, yesterday we discovered that my blog was an important resource. It literally made the difference between life, and death. Kirk received this email from his former college roommate and friend yesterday: “Hey Kirk! Let me tell you a little story. I got home from work today about 6:45 … Read More
Worth getting up for
Yesterday I told you I have undiagnosed ADD, and that one of the symptoms of ADD is forgetting appointments. I forgot to mention that particular “forgetting” symptom also includes showing up at your 7:15 am appointment (that you awoke at 5:30 AM for) on the WRONG DAY! My appointment is TOMORROW morning! Sheesh. I was a … Read More
Undiagnosed ADD
I have ADD. I know. I took an online test. It said you don’t have to have all the symptoms, just a couple. These are some of my symptoms: I have difficulty getting things in order when I have to do a task that requires organization. I have problems remembering appointments or obligations. I avoid … Read More
4:36 pm – SNOW
This is just wrong. But it is very real. I’m trying to remember why I moved here.
“Old School”
Ryan at “This Is REVERB” asked readers to post something “old school” on our blogs. He claims it is like “salve for the soul”. I recently posted some (embarrassing) old school stuff here from my high school years, and even some of drummer boy’s old school (literally) stuff here. It’s hard to read, but the date on … Read More
End of the road
1600 miles. 26+ hours in the car. Me and my backside couldn’t be happier to be home in Rochester. It is surely flatter than when we started out 10 days ago! My hip joints & knees continue to complain as well. Major shout-outs to my drummer boy — husband, and DRIVER! He endured my whining about aching joints, and … Read More
Internet Cravings
(A shout-out to all the visitors from Ryan’s blog! Welcome!) My name is Cheri and I’m addicted to blogging. Ok, maybe not addicted — but I sure crave it. To prove it, I’ve left the comfort of my father-in-laws home at 11 pm and drove to my sister and brother-in-laws home (down the road) to … Read More
Apartment life
This past week we visited our daughter in Cincinnati and stayed at her apartment with her and her 2 roommates. Within an hour of arriving at her apartment, she whisked us off to IKEA (with our blessings) to give our approval on the dresser and wardrobe she wanted to purchase. The dresser, wardrobe, and bookshelf … Read More
Sunday in Cincy
The three of us entered the Danbarry Theaters in West Cincinnati at around 10:45 this morning to attend CHURCH. Upon entering the lobby I immediately started to “recognize” faces of people I’d never met. Faces that I’d seen on Pastor Ryan’s blog. A blog I read with great regularity – not because I know him, … Read More
