The boy’s bunk beds arrived at the store on our date night last Thursday. I got a call on my cell phone announcing their arrival. I quickly made phone calls to the warehouse and delivery service to best weigh cost, time and convenience regarding gettin…

Kris and I had a date last night. We had movie coupons for Carmike cinemas and we also had to pick up a car-seat from Eric and Tisra that Tim and Kristy can use while they are here. All of this added up to a trip to Franklin and Cool Springs. We left t…

This week is getting hotter and hotter! Every time I leave the house I feel like it takes me longer and longer to de-pressurize when I return. I’ve always felt a little tired when I go places and feel like I can’t get as much done at home due to the in…

The rules:
1. I have to post these rules before I give you the facts.
2. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
3. People wh…

I’ve had a wonderfully busy morning and relaxing afternoon today. I got the kids ready and out the door by 9-ish and headed up to Becky’s house to drop them off. I had a birthday lunch to go to in Goodlettsville (Chef’s Market…mmmm!) so her house was…
