I am officially done blogging now. It has served it’s purpose in my life & now I am moving on. I thank all the people who have encouraged me through the tough times in my marriage a few years ago. Knowing that people I didn’t even know were praying for me & supporting me really [...]

For ‘Twilight’ Lovers

Evanescence – Bring Me To Life
How can you see into my eyes like open doors
Leading you down into my core
Where I’ve become so numb without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold

Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save [...]

Twilight – What’s the Hype?

Posted by: beaner927 on: November 20, 2008

OK, so I seem to vaguely remember reading some blog posts about this vampire book series by Stephanie Meyer. Supposedly it was a “teen” favorite, but lots of other people were loving the books too.

Ahh…the High School Musical Saga is over….that is, unless they decide to do College Musical! Anyway, Jess & I went out to see the movie a few days ago, and much to my delight, we were the ONLY ONES in the theater!!! I guess it helps to wait until opening weekend is over, and then [...]

Hot or Cold

Posted by: beaner927 on: October 21, 2008

Last week I was sweating at the zoo as the temperatures were in the mid-80’s. This week I am waking up to temperatures in the 30’s and highs in the 60’s. What happened to my 70 degree days of Fall?????  It seems to go from hot to cold around here.
Soocer is finally over (cue ‘Hallelujah [...]

Since the kids had Columbus Day off of school & my brother was flying home for a visit from California, the kids & I packed our bags & headed to the Chicago Suburbs to my parents’ house. Dwight had to stay behind for a Disc Golf Tournament, work, and to watch the dogs. Since the [...]
