What a GREAT weekend! I got to start the weekend on Friday morning by going to a podcasting convention with friends. The group of people there were THE most positive and welcoming people I have ever come across! It was so full of information and encouragement! I am SUPER fired up to start my cast and share my experiences as a Mommy of Many and a military spouse. I am fortunate enough to be working with a great guy who is all set up with the right equipment and know-how. It just all feels right and good! I should be able to announce my first cast very soon. Whoo Whoo!
Last night was the HC Ball. So much fun! The longer we are in this community, the more great people we meet. It was a lot of fun to see so many familiar faces in one place! Ok, it was fun to get dressed up too. I think I met a new hairdresser last night. It’s time! Clay looked fabulous and had a great time as well.
Another exciting thing is that I’m leaving in just a few days to go see Kateri and JJ. It will be so nice to see them and see the campuses they are each on. They both sound like they are having great experiences and are in the right places. But, we miss them! Thanksgiving will be so nice, having them both here. Think of me as I take this trip, because I am a little nervous about it. I haven’t traveled in a long time.
I hope you each had a wonderful weekend and that positive and encouraging people crossed your path!
Good night~

I have been working hard to get all of this podcasting stuff in place. Some of that means that I am trying to move this blog to another site. You would still be able to access it here, but when announcing it to the public, there would be another website. So, yesterday I was working on doing that when, BAM! My whole site disappeared! I was sick! It took me hours to get it republished and lots of “on-hold” time on the phone. Anyway, it all made me realize that I haven’t got the slightest idea what I am doing. I just wanted to throw my hands up and say, “ok, you’re right, I’m in over my head and I quit”. But I didn’t and here I am today. I just really know NOTHING about how computers work and talk to each other and how moving things from one site to another works. It seems like so much to think about when all I really want to do is share stories and be connected. Ok, one hurdle at a time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So, Clay and I are going to the ball (annual military function) next weekend. This means a new dress. So, I took the 3 little ones, while everyone else was in school and headed to the mall. You can imagine that I didn’t get very much accomplished. I grabbed several dresses and headed to the dressing room. Thank goodness the large one was open, because I had the stroller with the 2 little ones in it and Max following along. Now, I should mention that I wasn’t feeling the normal dread I feel, when about to try on clothes. The baby is getting older and I am busier since the oldest kids are gone (not as many people to delegate tasks to) and this all means less snack time for me (I’ve also found that since canceling cable, I don’t sit in front of the TV late at night with a snack). I’ve started to shrink a little. A couple people have even commented on it. So, I grabbed those dresses in a size smaller than normal. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!!! The ones I did manage to get on had to be zipped by Max (4 yrs. old) and if you’ve read any of my other posts, you get the idea that he’s a straight talker. Well it was no different in the dressing room. When he was asked to zip one dress with a side-zipper, he tried with all his 4 yr old might and then stepped back and said, “There’s just too much side”. Point taken! I grabbed the matronly, black dress with an easy, up-the-back zipper and promptly checked out. Whew! I guess the accessories will have to speak of the beauty I hope to feel that night, ’cause the dress says , “there was just too much side”.
Good night~
