So here is the picture of my nephew’s red and blue rocket ship cake. He gave me explicit instructions as to the colors, flavors and theme and this is what I came up with. Apparently it was really good because there was only 13 people at the party and the whole cake was gone before…
my thoughts about life
Where the heck is the new wheelchair?
Ok, I am losing it without a wheelchair for Tiara because I can’t exercise. As you know most mornings we walk or rather she sits in her wheelchair listening to music and I push her. Either way she gets fresh air and I get a serious workout. As you probably read last week, the wheel…
An almost Wordless Wednesday …..
I have never done a Wordless Wednesday post before, so I am giving it a try. It appears I have already failed since I can’t help but write a little bit. Here is what our day looked like on Monday. Last but not least, we added a…
Wow, what a weekend!
It is Sunday morning at 8:15 am and I just woke up, made my coffee and sat down to the computer. Everyone in my house is still asleep!!!! I am pretty sure in my 20 years of being a mother to early risers I have never experienced a moment like this. I can’t remember the…
The fair and my palm reading
Thursday morning I woke up at 4am again and couldn’t get back to sleep. So once again I got up and started getting stuff done. Mostly preparing all our food for the day, which takes more time than I could have ever anticipated but it seems to be working and helping so I am really…
They pulled out of escrow…
Tuesday night I was sitting on the couch watching TV, drinking my wine when I received a text from Patrick, our real estate agent at 10:00 p.m. saying “If you’re awake call me.” I instantly knew it was bad news and called him within seconds. We had been waiting on a certain issue which I…
We’re on a new eating program at the Goff house!
As most of you know I have to be constantly engaged in a project or I go stir crazy. Since my house is still in a holding mode, I can’t obsess on any home improvements, moving plans or the garden so I have decided to focus on the way we eat. I love eating healthy…
I just didn’t know!
I literally hate this phrase more than any other phrase in the English language. In my mind when someone says “they didn’t know” I always think “How could you not know?” My thoughts then start racing. “Don’t you care enough to know? Don’t you value learning this imp0rtant skill or quality? Are you just lazy…
Why are people wearing pajamas in public?
Maybe I’m old fashioned in the dressing department but can someone please tell me how it has become acceptable for grown adults to wear pajamas out in public? Of course I can accept cute little kids in the bagel store or on a morning run to the market in their pj’s and can almost understand…
I forgot something rather important!
I don’t know about you but one of the things I hate the most in this world is sitting in a hot car. I feel totally claustrophobic and near suffocation if I don’t have enough cold air in a small space. As a result I am kinda weird in the summer about getting Tiara in…
