• A House Full

  Posted on Tuesday December 22nd, 2009 at 16:36 in family, austin, christmas, nick, papa, lindsey, sweet melissa

  It's been a fun week so far. We've had all 4 kids in the house. 10, 14, 16 and 18. There is always a door slamming, a pair giggling, a pair arguing, someone in the shower, someone in the kitchen eating, someone watching a Christmas movie or someon...

• Last Night, My Son...

  Posted on Friday December 11th, 2009 at 08:31 in nick, boy scouts, eagle scout

  .Last night, I was a nervous wreck! I was pacing up and down the halls while a group of people took my son, Nick, away and examined him. For over an hour, I waited to hear from them as I sat in the waiting area thinking about his life..I remembered w...

• Happy 18th Birthday, Nick

  Posted on Wednesday October 14th, 2009 at 06:45 in birthday, nick

  .On October 14th 1991, I gave birth to a 7lb, 11oz baby boy. I named him Nicholas Stephen after Nikki Sixx (Motley Crue) and Stephen Tyler (Aerosmith). I thought if he was an intellectual, he could go by Nicholas. If he were a jock, he could go by...

• I'm Sad

  Posted on Tuesday October 13th, 2009 at 06:03 in nick

  . .I've thought about this for nearly 18 years. Today is my son's last day as a minor. Tomorrow, he turns 18 and I am sad. I miss that little guy that used to sing "Do You Know the Muffin Man?" as he cleaned windows. I miss the sweet fella who fo...

• Trading Up

  Posted on Tuesday August 18th, 2009 at 06:32 in school, nick, scuba, sinnerviewer

  It's nothing personal, I just haven't felt like I had much to say about what was going on in life lately. It's just been a boring holding pattern of trying to get into school - I haven't been in over 20 years and it's been hard trying to decide wher...

• Middle of the Night, I Wanna Break Up

  Posted on Wednesday July 29th, 2009 at 02:44 in sleep, nick, lindsey, middle of the night, sinnerviewer

  Dear Middle of the Night:When I was young, you held such allure for me. You meant that I was having a sleepover and staying up way past my bedtime. You meant fun or a special occasion. You meant that I was thinking that I heard Santa on the roof.A...

  .Took my kids to some fireworks 2 nights in a row. We had a lot of fun (as always)... Nick & Lindsey... I don't know what Lindsey is trying to do to me here but she is no match for her mom..... I relish my daughter lovin'. Isn't she a beautiful...

• Teenagers: God's Way of Humbling You

  Posted on Monday May 25th, 2009 at 10:34 in teenager, nick, lindsey

  .That little rascal behind me is my daughter, Lindsey. She could easily be the lovechild of Gregory House, MD. She has his brilliance, his good looks and his sarcasm and snarkiness. And that can be a very bad thing..Last night, while we were enjoyin...

• Mothers Day 09

  Posted on Monday May 11th, 2009 at 14:06 in teenager, nick, mothers, lindsey, sinnerviewer

  .This weekend, I had so much fun with my teens. We spent Friday at an amusement park. Their friends were there but they still made time to ride some rides with Mom. Here is Lindsey in the log flume ride with me:On Mother's Day, they gave me a card...

• Hug From my Baby Boy

  Posted on Wednesday April 15th, 2009 at 07:13 in teenager, nick, son, sinnerviewer

  My kids had Spring Break this past week (hence my absence from blogging) and I am going to put some of those pics up soon. I really loved this pic that my daughter took of my son giving me a hug at the top of a mountain in north Georgia.....

• Some Pics

  Posted on Wednesday April 1st, 2009 at 06:47 in family, nick, lindsey, sweet melissa

  . The last week or so has been full of family stuff. Partly because of my birthday, but also because we had an impromptu "cousin" get-together. We have had a lot of laughs, some delicious food and marvel that each other's kids have gotten so big sinc...

• Mad Computer Skillz & Rockin' Kids

  Posted on Wednesday March 4th, 2009 at 06:51 in teenager, nick, character, integrity, power point, joan jett, lindsey

  .I took some computer classes to try to make myself more marketable for a decent job. The school that I went to was recommended by my first lawyer, who really, really sucked. This place doesn't so much teach you as they do train you how to pass the c...

• Skating, Joan Jett & Wii Fit

  Posted on Thursday February 12th, 2009 at 09:35 in wii, teenager, nick, roller skating, joan jett, lindsey, lucky brand

  Skate night was a success. I can tell because my calves are aflame right now. I didn't fall or even come close. I think I surprised my kids because the *only* time they've seen me skate was a few years ago when I bought a pair of skates at a garag...

• Bragging

  Posted on Monday December 1st, 2008 at 10:05 in teenager, nick

  I just logged on to Facebook, a social networking site that my kids made me join, and saw a message that my 17 year old son, Nick, left for me on my "wall":Hey Mom! I just wanted to let you know how much i love you and that I am so proud to be your s...

• AfroDuck, Inspiration & Nick

  Posted on Friday October 10th, 2008 at 05:40 in women, nick

  I saw a beautiful quote about women that I would like to share with you:Whatever you give a woman, she's going to multiply. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, s...
