King

(Singing) Five in bed the little on said, "roll over, roll over".

Well, after almost 12 years of marriage Mark and I got a king sized bed. Not because the two of us needed the room but all five of us do. I like to snuggle with my snuggle bunnies.

We bought white sheets because they were cheaper than off white and I figure I can bleach them. I'm thinking that wasn't such a great idea. Until I find the perfect comforter I didn't want to make a commitment to color. Silly I know.

Well the bed was pretty fun to get via UPS. It was in a small box with all the air taken out kinda like the space bags. Anyway, it was mildly entertaining to see a king size mattress in a smaller box. We got it two nights ago, but it take 48 hours for it to completely spring back to life? That is the best way to explain it. So tonight is the first night in the new bed.

Lucky Saint Patrick's Day!

Ada you will love this... Madison loses her tooth yesterday on the way home from school.  I am so excited, I take a picture as soon as she gets out of the van and post it everywhere and email it to family.  I clean it off and put it in a zip lock (easier to find under the pillow, right?) and we tuck it under the pillow and we all, ALL fall asleep.   Madison wakes up at 5:30 AM and says to me, "I can't see if the tooth fairy left me anything". PANIC stricken.  I FORGOT THE TOOTH FAIRY JOB!  Okay this is my only job on earth.  I can't remember to exchange cash for a baby tooth. I send her to the couch and tell her it is too early that she has to try and go back to sleep.   I grab Marks elbow and he says to me, "it is only 5:30".  He was awake and heard her too.  We both lay in silence for 30 minutes hoping she falls asleep.  Funny thing is once we talked to each other thirty minutes later, both of us were in bed formulating a plan.  He wanted to sneak out our

Southern Charm

We made an offer (low), the owners countered (expected) and they countered exactly what I thought they would. So, unless the inspector says the house should be demolished we will be the owners of a 1965, full brick, colonial style, bi-level house the second week of July or earlier. It is on a golf course, 6th fairway. It has a pool, fireplace, an original 60's kitchen (redo), hardwood floors, two car garage and much more. We know the process is long when buying a house in this condition. It's not in deplorable shape, livable in need of some updates. It is 44 years old and has not had major updates. This house is 10 years newer than our last house. It has character and southern charm. Not perfect, but perfect for us. Photos on the web are copyrighted. Not sure If I can post them here. I will try and do a link instead......

9 to 5

I have never cared about recession until this one.  Apparently during the last recession I didn't notice a thing.  Probably because we were living the DINK lifestyle (dual income no kids).  I don't even think I had my own 401k at the time.  Anyway, Mark for the past two years has worked for a pool manufacture.   Do you know anyone in the past year that has put in a pool? Probably not.  This is the reason why he isn't working.  The pool industry is all dried up. (I couldn't help the pun.) Although we knew the pool cash cow wouldn't last forever, it did last for over two years.  Two years at the beginning of Nathan's life that Mark was able to be here at home.  He got to see his son grow up from a baby to a little boy.  What a blessing.   That chapter of our lives is coming to an end.    Mark is now looking for a "9 to 5" job.  Two years ago we said when and if the pool job ended Mark would look for a job outside of our area.  Well, the time has come and
