Ramblings of the Unimportant

     I just got back from an amazing trip with my good friend Jenny~ First to Alabama then to New Orleans. I am so grateful that we had the opportunity to stop at my brother's house on the way to visit for a couple of hours (wish my niece Maddie would have been there). My brother & sister-in-law were as funny as ever. I don't get to see them very often at all so the time was much needed! My niece~ the wonderful Tails~ was being her normal silly, loveable self & Maddie was missing in action. Man, I miss those girls! Now on to New Orleans~~      Bourbon Street was the typical "strip" that you can locate in every town. Bourbon street was a smaller scale Vegas and a bigger 6th street from my childhood.

Well, I bring this up because I was informed yesterday that the arm'farts' are still alive and well in our schools today. My sons looks up at me and says~ "Boys in my class can make that noise with their armpits...I can't do it, and I'm sooo jealous of them." There you have it folks...I guess your kid is either the one making the noises or the one jealous of the boys that can!

I have so much to say and so little time.... 2010 is going to be a year of changes for our family so in an attempt to keep all my family and friends up to speed I am starting this blog. I have been keeping a journal since I was in elementary school, but am very intimidated for others to read the randomness that actually goes on in my head. The cheese may stand alone ~but~ I prefer old fashioned pen & paper. Hope you enjoy and maybe even get a couple of laughs like I do!
