Peace for Joey


Many of you know that I frequent a scrapbooking website 2Peas in a Bucket . com. I have met some very nice people on there, some who I have met face to face at Creating Keepsakes University. On 2Peas there is a gal, Jen Gallacher. She was inducted into the 2007 Creating Keepsakes Hall of Fame and one of the sweetest gals you could ever meet. She also has a son who just turned 13. who lost his battle with cancer last night. Months ago they found out he had cancer and soon after they learned it was an aggressive type. Like many who deal with the Big C, they had lots of ups and downs over the past several months. Last Wednesday he had developed pneumonia and had to be airlifted to a hospital where he passed away last night. Thirteen is too young to die, he had so much ahead of him. So in honor of him, many of us "Peas" changed our avatar's to this candle pictured above. Joey Gallacher, may you rest in peace.

It FINALLY feels like Spring!



Yep, I'm getting sick and tired of the cold weather crap, I am a warm weather person. Can't wait for the yard to dry out so we can mow, right now sheep could graze on it.

The kiddos had their last day of soccer, so no more getting up early on Saturday mornings, YEA! Kind of nice we get one lazy morning back. In a couple of weeks t-ball and softball will begin. Well, softball has begun for Ashton, but out of 6 practices they should have had, 4 have been rained out. Matt has threatened to tie me down and duct tape my mouth during her games. I can't help coaching from the stands, maybe part of me wants to be out there again. I do have to say that practicing with Ashton (what little we have since it has been so wet) has been one hell of a work out. I may volunteer to be an assistant coach next year, a good way to get into shape.........Later.

Holy Cow! I've started a blog!

Yes, I have now entered the world of blogging. Kind of scary but yet fun at the same time. I view it as a place to express my thoughts, opinions, rants, funny things, etc. of my daily life. It may be a little boring at first since I am new to this, but it will get entertaining as time goes on.

Later........
