yup, Dallas missed the man himself. we had a great time though! maybe next time though! meeting him made the trip sooo worth it. don't know R. Lee Ermey? hmmm... what can i say? i dunno too much about him either but he's a hell of a motivator! a marine and the star of his own show "Mail Call". great show. actor, activist and firearms safety advocate. hell of a man. look him up! good times.

i remembered my password!

i'm such a dork. so i wrote it down in my little black book of passwords. duh.

of note, Dallas starts football practice tomorrow! as a FRESHMAN!!! what? why so fast? geez. have you seen how tall he is lately? i need to clean and start up our extra fridge now! ouch. we thought that he was eating a lot up till now.

Mei Mei is learning, in earnest now, to potty train. hates it! funny thing is that she'll go to her potty on her own, and then complain, rather loudly, I DON'T WANNA GO POTTY!!! so funny! she's getting the hang of it though. cracks me up.

dad will be here tonight! Him and Migdalia, but not Sylvi. she's busy starting up this next semester of college and work. dad's doing well so far and i'm glad that i took the day off tomorrow! why did i take the day off? kim and i celebrate another anniversary! woohooo! what is that now? seven years? mhmm. 7. good times folks! good times. Dallas will go to Florida for a week at the end of this week to visit friends and grandparents. the dynamics of the family change quite a bit when one of us is gone. feels weird. he'll have fun though and it'll be good before he starts highschool.

oops, mei mei just pee pee'd. gotta go clean her up.

c ya

this weekend we went to Door county again but this time we were there for a party! One of the physicians that i work for is turning 40 and his wife put on a surprise party for him which included his colleagues and families, my coworkers and families, his families friends and families... big shindig. oh yeah. we ALL had a great time! we went on a two hour river cruise and when we returned, had a trolley ride to his property which was very picturesque. the road was very scenic with its old homes and mature trees and the property that he owns is quaint, to say the least. there are three varieties of apple trees, there are grapes and raspberries too! the front half of the property was where the big tent was set up so the food could be served, the band could play and we all could sing, dance and eat to our delight. the little (octagonal) cottage was set back in the trees, not too far from the shore amidst the hardwoods. we were all immediately put at ease in that setting and the children gravitated to the rock pits which held white sand and plastic toys to play with. the other rock rings, which were fire rings, were stocked with plenty of wood for a great bonfire at sunset! mmmm.... loved it. Dallas and Mei Mei played hard! we all had a great time and as a result, this weekend went by entirely too fast. wow.

summer is going by too fast! dallas is headed to florida for awhile to visit friends and family and upon his return, promptly will begin high school. yikes. good times.

good night for now!

i am anxiously awaiting dad's visit next week!

I was on a night call and i was going at least 60 when the racoon ran in front of me... to late. ouch. it was gross but i couldn't stop! someone was dying that night and i had to get there NOW! ouch.

on a better note, dallas is headed to high school folks! can you believe it?! HIGH SCHOOL!!! football! girls! dating! homework! proms! school trips! good times! time will tell. both children are growing up so stinking fast! slow down! enjoy life a little! dallas will be wanting his own vehicle soon because he needs to go on a hot date! he still denies the girl thing though. i saw him in action at the local fair one night though and he really isn't interested in dating. i wish that i could've had some video of him! what a goof! he wants to have fun and i'm glad for that. him and some of his friends are starting a game called Warhammer and they are building their repective armies. this requires lots of patience, glue and paint. i'd rather him do that than spend all day on the tv and xbox! he is getting pretty good shooting the recurve bow that was given to us by a coworker too! dallas is very talented and very good at what he puts his mind to. so proud of him!

anyone watching Kat on LA Ink? neither am i.

wisconsin beers are very good! just thought you'd like to know...
