came and went quickly...
But at least Chelsea came home for a little while on Sunday.  We had lunch, shared some tears, shopping and lots of laughing!  I love this relationship we have!  We got Chelsea her Uggs, and they looked so cute on her - but I'll have to wait on mine.  She needs them more for walking the campus during the winter months.
I'm trying to learn to deal with her being gone...

We have a busy weekend and rain wasn't to be a part of it???  Tonight is a Buckeye home game and tomorrow is the Kent game.  Not sure how either one will be?
We had such a nice time in Kent yesterday!  We visited with Chelsea, went to lunch at Rockne's and Chelsea's friend Jessica met up with us.  Then it was off to Walmart for more supplies Chel needed for her room.  We really need to find...

are days when Chelsea has few classes, so this past Tuesday she came home.  She went to visit her old teachers and then we did some shopping.  And why am I beginning to think she just came home for the shopping?  We picked up some shorts at Kohl's and some groceries to fill her frig when she got back to her dorm.
It's been an emotional week for us all, but I'm so proud of all the decisions she...

Well I unplugged the PC last night and Joel loaded it in the car for me to take back to be looked at. Seems the video card is still giving me problems with lines all through the screen... horrible when trying to edit photos!
Which brings me back downstairs to my mac...
Luckily I posted my projects at Work in Progress last night since the PC is where all my pictures were recently uploaded to. I'm...

And another busy week ahead!
Saturday morning Deb and I met up with my mom and Kim and her daughters over Kim's house to share some scrapbooking and craft ideas and to have lunch together.  Kim had everything decorated for Halloween and her new pup was just adorable! 
 
we then returned home to go to a band show for Buckeye.  Chelsea came home and wanted to see Cameron in the band and the...

Do you have a friend that would do anything for you, be there whenever you need her and listen to whatever your heart needs to talk about?  I do and I've been blessed with having her in my life for over 25 years!
We met because of a boy... imagine that!  But it wasn't about a boy she liked, no it was about a boy I liked and her friend liked.  See we lived in two different cities and "this boy"dated...
