"One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind"



Well, Alicynn had her tonsils and adenoids removed on Friday. She is such a trooper. All of the nurses commented that she acted so grown up for her age...not once did she complain. She took Peaches with her to the surgicare center. Peaches is her build a bear pig that has been through a lot with her. (Peaches was with her in the emergency room when she cut her foot on glass.) Peaches accompanied Alicynn into the surgery room, and she slept holding Peaches in recovery. Today she definitely was feeling better...she was doing things she knew better about doing. Her appetite is coming back...I thought she was going to eat us out of house and home!


I have finished typing and submitting my AP Literature and Composition Syllabus for approval by the College Board. Working on this has been a large task. The final product was 18 pages long. I should teach a college course now! I have never felt so relieved about a school project in all my life as when I hit the "submit" button on the computer tonight! Now, I just have to wait for approval.

Nine Years and Going Strong

Happy Anniversary to Greg and Me! We love our anniversary day. Today is our ninth anniversary. Tina was the first to acknowledge...good thing I maid her my maid of honor in the wedding! I think our anniversary should be a national holiday just like my birthday, but no one else will vote it in. Anyway, we are going to celebrate on Friday evening because Alicynn has her first softball game tonight! She has become a busy little girl with two sports this spring, soccer and softball.
