Life lately is filled with… ~~ Fun at the lake last weekend with friends for Memorial Day. Post coming soon. ~~ Stress! This week has been so stressful. I can’t talk about the details of the stress, because I never know who might be reading this. 🙂 Needless to say, through all the stress of everything I have to do what is right for my career and family, even when it doesn’t make sense to others as to why I would turn down an opportunity. ~~ More relaxed evenings now that the kids are done with school and sports, etc.…

Today I’m starting a new series that I’d like to do each week called Life Lately. This will be just random tidbits about what is going on in life. There’s always things I’d like to share, but more times than not, it’s not enough to write an entire post on. I thought doing it this way will hopefully encourage me to share those little things that usually get left unsaid. Or sometimes it may have things mentioned that will be an intro into a longer post later.

A fellow ALWB blogger, Carol, has nominated me for The Liebster Award. Thanks so much, Carol! Now I get to answer the 11 questions, she asked. So here goes… 1. Are you a cat or dog person? I am a dog person, no doubt. I don’t mind cats except that they jump up on everything and that just stresses me out. 2. What was the most controversial thing you have ever blogged about? I don’t talk politics and I don’t share a lot of my private life…So when I try to think about the most controversial thing I’ve blogged about…

Well, we’re all home again today for another “Snow Day.” However, it’s 45 degrees and sunny out! Back at the end of January, we were all home for 3 days because of real snow and ice. Here’s a few pics after much of the snow and ice had already begun to melt.

I really hate when life and all it’s problems start to get to me. When I get that feeling that I swallowed a 10 lb. dumbbell, my fingers start to ache, and nervousness rushes through me from my head down to my toes. It’s just not a good feeling. I can handle a lot, but it seems like circumstances, many of which are not in my control, just keep getting shoveled on top of me one after another. Just when I think I can push my way through it all and get back on my feet, one more heaping pile…
