Meet Willie, Olivia's New Baby Brother!







My friend Mary Anne, just got back from China with her new addition, Willie, or as he was known in China: Chow Dang. How cute is he? These kids simply amaze me! They don't have the greatest lives in the orphanages in China for the first year or so of their lives. They are kept in chairs, and have little to do. Their leg muscles are weak from always being kept in the chairs, and getting little exercise. Often times, they can hardly walk when they come here with their American parents; they're nearly 2 years old when they arrive here. Anyway, Willie's already walking really well, and trying to talk. He just glances at his big sister Olivia, and tries to do everything she does. This little boy has only been in America for almost a month, and is already so connected to his new family. He's been through a lot in his short little life, but now, little Willie, is home.

I said it before, and I'll say it again, the human spirit never ceases to amaze me.

So, What'da Think????


I wasn't sure about it; but after thinkin' about it for a couple of days, I'm happy with it now. Very thought provoking, and, left it wide open for more! Which is exactly what everyone wants, right?

My brother has the entire series in DVD's and brought them over for me to watch. I never watched the earlier seasons, and really, know nothing about its' origins, etc. I've watched two so far; I think I'll watch one episode every night before bed, before I fall asleep - gives me something to watch in the summer when there's only re-runs. Not a relaxing show to watch, and then try and sleep though.... I may have to think this one through. I just love Carm; she's so loving. I wonder if she knows when she snuggles at night with her hubby, he may have just offed someone? Funny, huh????????????

A few days have gone by...

reality has set in, monthly bills are here to be paid, taxes are due soon - I guess you can say I'm back in the Central PA mode, and hating it.... We won't be buying a beach house... Just thought I'd let you all know.... What a bummer.......... I guess you can say it was one of those deals, where I wanna live at the last place I vacationed... I say the next vacation place should be, uhhhhh, I dunno, how about Hawaii, or Aruba........... Stay tuned......

We're Buying a Beach House!!!

























You all are the first to know: We're buying a beach house! That's it... We just are! Forget this tiny little fact here: The very last place we go to vacation, we want to live there. Those of you who know us know exactly what that means. We wandered through little beach towns on our way home from the really expensive beach towns... They are all so lovely, and it's oh so peaceful there. We figured that Pat will have to pay his own way through college, and the Greyhounds will have to eat Weis Quality dog food. No more Corona's for me; I'll drink water, and no more fancy groceries. I love P & J sandwiches, and I happen to love pasta with salt and pepper on top... That's it, we're buying a beach house!
