I ate all the cherries ... ON PURPOSE!!!!!!!!

I ate probably half a pound of cherries IN BED last night while Dan & Jessica were fishing for crappies on Carnelian Lake. The cherries were delicious.

Now you may be wondering why this is noteworthy & worth blogging about, so let me explain.

I looked in the fridge last night to get something to eat, saw the bag of cherries & thought to myself that eating the rest of those cherries would really be a bit selfish. But while I was gazing at those cherries, I felt a very strange, burning sensation in my back pocket from the charge card I had just used to charge $1085 to buy Jessica a $1085 ( did I mention that it was $1085?) lap top for school.

I ate all the cherries. And when Dan told me this morning that the first thing that Jessica did when she got back from fishing last night was look in the refrigerator for those cherries, I have to admit that I was glad that I had been the one to eat all the cherries.

So much for love and nurturing. I'm about empty.

BUT!!!!!

They are worth every penny PLUS!!!!!!

So yeah.

I just thought of something. Next year will be the last year that we will pay for tuition & books for our children. Let's see. Both Danielle & Jess did the 5 year plan. Jamie 4. So that's 10 X 2 (semesters) + 4 X 2 = 28 semesters of tuition & books.

Feels kinda like when I realized I paid for my last diaper. Sheesh!! I'm glad we kept making more money , 'cause college costs a LOT more than diapers!!!

flash... I feel kinda deflated or maybe inflated or .... something.

PS

FLASH!

ps. Mom..... you listening? Or did you forget about this blog stuff? I don't trust you.

Thirty Three years of bliss?

Thirty three years ago today Dan & I were married. It hasn't all been bliss, that's for sure, but as I told Dan this morning as we took a nice walk on the Meyer farm, If I had it to do over again I wouldn't change a thing. And that is the truth.

Dan surprised me with this lovely dinner tonight. I am a lucky woman but he is a lucky guy too. That is what makes 33 years of not all bliss worth it.

Jessica is a bad girl!

I just took a series of picts. of Jess studying for the GRE and had to crop the last one for fairly obvious reasons. She is naughty & VERY crabby because she will not be able to use a calculator. boo hoo hoo.
