Spare Change Anyone? Spare Change?

My Husband Rocks!

Dave saw this on the side of a city bus a week before the concert. He rang up a friend who works for the city's public transportation agency and voila!

Sam wanted to pose pretending he was Kid Rock in the picture. He's my little rock star.

Knocked The Wind Out Of My Sails

Fucking head lice.

These last few weeks with my kids in school have been disorienting. I've been rested, getting things done around the house and taking walks with our dogs. It felt good to accomplish things that I'd been neglecting. Yesterday I noticed Mae had a few free loaders on her scalp. I've stripped every bit of bedding, cushion, stuffed animal, curtain, pillow and they are loaded into bags waiting to go to the laundromat. It takes an hour and a half to comb through Mae's head screening for eggs. Damn it.

Blissful

So delightful and surreal to see Kid Rock perform 15 minutes from my house! I'm still in a daze. The show was awesome as always and it was great to see him from my spot up against the barricade. Ahh. Bliss.

Quirky

The one on the left wears her shoes on the opposite feet.

This one can climb the stairs, but can't climb down.

This comes into the house through our bedroom window. She scratches relentlessly at the glass, at any hour of day or night until someone lets her in.

This one eats on the roof.
