Empty Nest: Poor, Poor Blog

Poor, Poor Blog

I've been so neglectful of this poor, pitiful little blog lately. And I blame school. SC has jumped on the common core boat (sinking though it may be) and we agreed to do field testing for the new test. Along with MAP. And PASS. How dumb are we?

I could turn this into a HUGE discussion on common core- and, trust me, I have a lot to say about it, but I won't.

Why? Because something else has had us busy----

Remember this little man? He came to visit Friday night.

And yesterday, his new baby sister arrived!

Congrats to my wonderful nephew and his sweet, sweet family!

The babysitting is going to get really interesting now. LOL

Glad you see you post. I just figured you have been busy with wedding things too.

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment! It makes me feel connected to everyone even though we may live far apart! Have a wonderful day!

Welcome!

Being a transplant to the low-country of SC for 31 years is still not long enough to be called a ‘benyeh.’ If I stay until I’m dead I’ll probably go a ‘comeyeh’ since I am, originally, ‘from off’ (which is the upstate but, rules you know). By day I take care of my sweet little granddaughter, Baby M and do all those things I did when I was a SAHM raising four daughters which has translated to, ‘by day, I am exhausted.’ By night I blog, blog, blog, and blog some more or I sleep, depending on my level of exhaustion (do they still make Geritol?). I have a very unhealthy addiction to sweets (nearly any kind will do) and all comfort foods not covered under the ‘sweets’ category. I’m known for speaking my mind so, if you don’t want to know, don’t ask me. I love to find the humor in my empty nest life. I live life hard and smack into that brick wall almost daily because I’ve always had to learn the hard way. Why change now? I’m so glad you’ve come to laugh with me as I do this middle age, empty nest thing like a BOSS!
