I’m not sure I care, yet. I mean, I love to drink wine but
have never been keen to know much about it beyond what someone tells
me. But this year is different. This year for the first time we have
invited a student to live with our family and he happens to be French
and happens to have lived in Bordeaux. So when I heard that people were

I mean, if the person I am talking about does something really dumb, like the idiooooooot I spoke about in my previous post, does that mean I have to do a few good deeds to make up for what I say about him?

She had the biggest brown eyes and was smiling back at me.
I then realized to my horror that she was sitting in the front seat of the truck her bleeping father was driving! Window rolled all the way down to boot!

The very first Father's Day for Eric. A huge day, considering both of us never thought we would be parents or had fathers in our lives to celebrate with.
So why did I forget about it? Well I didn't forget entirely. I was determined to be ready about a month ago so I bought two adorable cards, one from Sam and Leeannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03649981375359531000noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3091745985077977870.post-4870809785491521392011-06-14T22:04:00.000-07:002011-06-14T22:05:56.651-07:00How could I forgetFunny that I would forget to say which font it was I chose to grace this blog. It took me hours to decide! Actually not so long but I wanted to make sure I leave a good impression. :)
It's Josefin sans. A serene yet bold choice, don't you think?

I like this idea however I prefer to expand on the meaning of it as I don't think the phrase is entirely accurate and even a bit short-sighted. In reality, karma is a bitch. The karmic scale is not at all balanced as this phrase suggests, more often than not the scale tips so far down on the one side of 'what I do' vs. ' what will come Leeannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03649981375359531000noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3091745985077977870.post-85975103932578265322011-06-11T23:10:00.000-07:002011-06-11T23:10:45.420-07:00Possibilities of FontYes that's right...of font.
So many choices. Courier, Ariel, Times Roman, Times New Roman. The list is endless and overwhelmingly boring. Now how about Cherry Cream Soda font? Heaven I tell you!

Quite the opposite in fact.Recently I thought, I don't really have anything substantial to report or to say until the baby is born. I said this to some friends and they couldn't have disagreed more. And they're absolutely right. There's so much going on in fact that there is too much to say that it feels a bit overwhelming.

The test results came back, in the mail...(what??) and I had them read to me over the phone.
But before I reveal the juicy details, you must know what lead up to that fateful moment.

It contradicts everything that I believed and thought about how my life would turn out. But, thank god, I am not alone.
When I was about 10 years old, my mom told me that I said I would never let this happen. Imagine, at such a young age, knowing this? What do you really know at 10 anyway?

It's a new reality-based program where CEO's or high ranking employers go undercover to get a first hand experience of what it is like to be an employee in their company.
Needless to say, some shocking and heartwarming revelations are had by the big bosses.

I hear ya....life and love is so tough at your age. The worst thing in my books when I was a kid was to experience humiliation and teasing by the other kids. What I wish I knew then was that the opinions of those kids who were cruel or mean to me didn't really matter. It was their stuff, their insecurities. They are jealous and cruel it's true.

I had written cards to the few friends I had in the class, mostly girls, lol, and one or two boys I thought were hot, if a 6th grade boy could be considered hot. I didn't know if I would receive many cards but thought it would be okay if I got at least a few.

It seems to have walked away! It's not like I am not good enough for it. It's sleek design, purplish hue, and beautifully lit screen was so very sexy. I kid you not! I had great admiration for how this little piece of technology enhanced my life. So why did it just walk away? Leeannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03649981375359531000noreply@blogger.com1
