phelix files: temperament test
For Chloe’s spring break, we are headed out of town (travelin’, travelin’!). But Phelix the dog doesn’t get to join us, poor duppy. So what to do? We thought about a pet sitter, but he’s such a social dog that be awfully lonely staying home all by himself — except for Gazoo, who won’t give

Stormy weather moved through in the late evening, leading to yet another interesting sunset here…
school: overnight field trip
Chloe’s on a field trip. Sure, she’s been on lots of field trips before with her school, but this is a three-day field trip to the beach! At 6am, she board a big old coach bus with her class and a few other fifth grade classes to head to the Burton 4-H Center on Tybee

I went out to do a couple of errands and then regretted it — we missed what must have been a gorgeous sunset!!
volunteering: georgia marathon
With our move to Decatur a year and a half ago, our travels have dropped off dramatically. For one, Chloe is now not only in school, which hugely curtails our adventures, but she’s also on the gymnastics team. In addition, finances are tight as we’ve been carrying two mortgages. Although I’m disappointed about not getting

The girls and I took Phelix hiking at Arabia Mountain today. He had a blast playing in the lake. He kept trying to step onto the top of the water and was frustrated that his foot would go through each and every time.

Busy day taking care of work, chores and walking the neighbors’ dog. But we got everything done in time to head out to hang out with Amy and the kids !

As we thought about where to go for Chloe’s “winter” break, I decided it had been too long since I’ve been to the beach. With money being tight as we were in the midst of three different real estate transactions, I knew we’d have to make it a camping trip and keep it short (so

Despite my desire to take better photos, I’m still in a rut of taking lame photos with my phone — this is the latest.

Spring was in the air today!

Today, Gazoo rediscovered how much she enjoys sitting on the top of the turtle’s cage….

The girls took care of all their chores and homework, so we got to go out to eat at their favorite restaurant…
celebrations: week 10 (5-11 mar 2013)
At last! I’m finally ready to get back to our resolutions and traditions and celebrations, oh my! after moving. (Maybe I’ll get back to the kids’ music blog in a week or two …) This past week, the celebrations we missed were: 5 (National Cheese Doodle Day): Hula Hoop Patented 6 (National Frozen Food Day):

We headed off to Athens very early in the morning for a gymnastics meet. Chloe did great on the bars, but fell off the beam…

Phelix is generally okay with being in his pen, but some times he just wants to GET OUT of THIS PLACE, especially if the kitty is walking by.

Camille got all dressed up for Momocon and then rode MARTA down to the convention in Atlanta…. Wonder how many funny looks she got?

It is probably time to take these down until next February, but I just love them!!
complete randomness
I have drafts of a dozen different posts, none of which I feel are ready to post. Instead of cleaning up those drafts, I’m going to write this one. And like my thoughts, this will probably be a post that is all over the place. Moving is at a steady-state. All but a couple of

Camille and I headed down to Native for lunch today — delicious sandwiches!!
