It’s officially fall here in Colorado. The weather was beautiful today. Temperature’s reaching just about a high of 62. Time to bust out the warm coats. I bet Anthony’s jealous, I hear it’s close to 110 in Iraq… eek! Continue reading Fall

I am exhausted! This is what a single parent must feel like.  I was able to video chat with Anthony last night which was the first time I heard from him in 2 days. He shaved off all his hair and has already found a buddy to hit the gym with. Hopefully we’ll be able … Continue reading Weekend
