SPRING IS HERE (for about a nano minute)

Last week was in the low 80s, yesterday was 65F, today 75F, tomorrow 85F and I thought California was bad with the temp drops and rises!

Working on getting the house clean and kinda dreading Nick going off to the Navy in 2 months, we're going to miss the kid even if we don't see him much.  He's been so busy working like crazy and spending time with his friends that he's hardly ever home.  His last night at the restaurant is Thursday, after that he's going to focus solely on working around the house and getting ready for the extra testing for the Navy thing. 

Definitely looking forward to the Alice Cooper concert next Tuesday!  Nick has never seen Alice in concert, this will be a blast!

Missing you, Mama, something fierce the last few days.  We miss you all the time but it's been rougher than usual and I'm not sure why.

I think you'd like the plans we have for the house and Nick.

This works well with just breasts or thighs or whatever combo you'd like.  The sauce is fantastic on eggs the next morning too.

Becoming Mom - part whatever

Okay, instead of hand sewing something as I normally would, I used the machine. The design works, the stuff for the project doesn't.  We need bigger pipe insulation. We're making drafty door blockers and the insulation is too small since we ripped out the carpets. So, first foray into sewing with a machine in a long time went well but the project is stalled until tomorrow or Friday.
