My first blog

Okay so a good friend of mine invited me to view her blog and keep up with her and her adorable family.. So it is so much fun reading, I decided to try my hand at it.

So where do I begin.. well the reason I found the time to get this going is because I am a widow this weekend.. a poor hunting widow, it used to bother me when "the man", I will call him. (I take it we should not use real names) sooo any way he used to go hunting I would throw a major attitude, because I of course was left behind to wipe noses and car pool all over kingdom come. Now however I quite enjoy it, not because I don't disparately miss his warm body in the middle of the night or someone to tag team with the kids, but because I get to watch whatever I want, go to bed whenever I want and NOT COOK!!!! (the best part)... OH and have I mentioned since "the man" has changed to bow hunting, our freezer is EMPTY.. it took him about 5 years to even get me to not wrinkle my nose at the idea of cooking it and NOW in the last 8 years he hasn't gotten a thing!! I tease him a lot and quite frankly I need to stop because I am sure it has affected his "manhood".

It is also my Fresh Prince's,. I will call him, very first High School football game.. of course he is just a Freshmen (hence the Fresh...Lol) but he has been playing football since the 1st grade! There is one SMALL problem.. there are 77 freshmen football players.. so we will see if I even get to take an action shot of him??

Also a dear friend of ours moved to Hawaii, he is also our insurance agent.. since "the man" and I are referral machines for him, he is paying to have our house cleaned tomorrow as a thank you gift ... and oh my what a thank you it is!! I am sooo excited! I hate all the Cinderella work, you know baseboards, under the furnature.. in fact that only gets attention about oh, once in a blue moon.. or when my parents are coming to visit.. well .. maybe not even that often, there are just not enough hours in the day!!!!

I'm also hitting the Taste of Colorado this weekend with a girlfriend!! YUMMMM fried dill pickles and turkey legs!!

Love, Meli

Welcome! I'm pretty new at this also. For the next 4 months, I too, will be a widow...it's the beginning of football season. The good news is that I can pack a whole lotta of shopping into the next few months and he won't even notice.
