We had to decide whether we'd move to Brighton because we LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the elementary school where the kids went; but we had to face the fact that while we really like the parents of our kids' friends, ultimately I'll never understand how they've come to have a world-view so different from ours. The kids are psyched that we're such a close walk to school, to West Park, to Kerrytown. The house is easily 1/2 the size of our old one, but it is still bigger than I know we could handle. The only real bust: 100-yr-old house smell.-amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04724947347451274216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-65266239066175480232011-08-16T13:39:39.763-04:002011-08-16T13:39:39.763-04:00My husband gives blood at whatever the maximum amo...My husband gives blood at whatever the maximum amount you can is (1x a month maybe?). Seems like the red cross calls us every day to set up appts. for him. He's small, but kinda hefty. I also get sick when I give blood, but for me I'm pretty sure it's just a mental/freak out thing. Kind of like how I had a major panic attack when I had dental surgery, even tho hopped up on vicodin. And I wonder where my kids get their neurosis!<br /><br />Love that kid is doing music. I think it's so good for them, and can add a great dimension to their lives.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02625501000684450886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-62753544438065494092011-08-16T11:26:05.448-04:002011-08-16T11:26:05.448-04:00Amy,

Are you boys going to stay where they were or are they going to go to A2 schools?<br /><br /><br />Julie,<br />I think we are just too small for giving blood. The blood ratio isn't enough to lose a pint. I would do it again if there was a real need crisis or something... but I would be prepared, not have the kids, and I would eat a HUGE meal before I went. They didn't want me to drive home.. and I was like "ladies, I have to get the kids out of here... how do you suggest I do that?"Mrs Furioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18082932653215907248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-83558148498281682352011-08-16T09:43:02.551-04:002011-08-16T09:43:02.551-04:00I am the same way with giving blood. I totally kno...I am the same way with giving blood. I totally know how you felt physically. Several years ago I had decided that I was going to routinely give blood since I had received so much blood when I had Murphy. I had lost a ton of blood and things were not good. I was so grateful. <br /><br />So fast forward to my little new plan to 'give back' since my blood type is the universal donor. My body totally crashed. I was so sick, knocked out for a couple of days. I felt worse than when I had my c-sections. I felt like i was going to die. <br /><br />Well, I have not given blood since which makes me feel really badly. I am just too afraid the same thing is going to happen. I was by myself when I did it, too. I can't even imagine how much worse it was to have your little girls there, too. <br /><br />Your hair looks adorable. You look perky & pretty. <br /><br />Awesome on the guitar for Kid. Jack plays bass (electric, not stand up of course;) ) & it has been such a good addition to his life. It is really good for kids that can be on the 'broody' side to have music as an outlet. <br /><br />Looking forward to hearing what Kid said and want to see photos of the girls' new kingdom outdoors.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04244649713390780027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-87540018301609628132011-08-16T09:15:11.379-04:002011-08-16T09:15:11.379-04:00The mosquitoes are horrific.

At first I thought it was A2 (we're just moving back after making the mistake of moving away seven years ago); but I just realized they're at the old house too (we've never had an issues w/ mosquitoes).<br /><br />On MI Radio the other day, they said we'd probably be dealing with this through October (unless it freezes first!). I seriously can't handle this much indoor time.<br /><br />I totally agree about making one thing a habit at a time. Luckily, I need to put all of my Gilad and Cathe on a hard drive, so I've been doing the workouts while they record. It's motivating because everything I don't record will be gone forever.-amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04724947347451274216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-45561583774679971772011-08-16T00:21:44.342-04:002011-08-16T00:21:44.342-04:00Love, love, love your hair....you always manage to...Love, love, love your hair....you always manage to look adorable.<br /><br />Mammograms=not painful.

She's v...Yes, she's taking guitar lessons. She's very excited. She took a neat band class last year, where she could try guitar, drums, piano, & electric guitar. She fell in love with the acoustic guitar. So, I feel reasonably confident going into this, that she'll like it. She can be super sensitive to critique, though... so... I'm hoping she doesn't let that affect her too much.<br /><br />I'll post her quote later this week... I need to space things out ;)Mrs Furioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18082932653215907248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-69759017190393344562011-08-15T21:10:52.518-04:002011-08-15T21:10:52.518-04:00What did she say?

I am disgusted with myself and my weight. Really saw it in my vacation photos. Thanks for the incentive to do a little at a time, and actually do it. I definitely need to get with the program.
