"Free time"

Olivia is sleeping.  The neighbors are doing their yard work...and I am on the computer. 

Cleo has gone missing.  We haven't seen her since Saturday morning.  The kitties roam the back yard now, playing with the birds and the squirrels.  They never go far...but Cleo has not come back.  I miss her so much.  Nothing on Craig's list.  Need to check with the Humane Society.  Maybe she is just hanging out with another nice family...hopefully. 

I got most of my stuff back from Kelso PD.  Apparently, they caught the guy and his truck was full of stolen items.  I guess he stole a lot of purses that day.  I am glad he got caught.  He really ruined my day.  But, I got my diaper bag back, and my daughter and I weren't harmed, so all in all, a very good ending. 

Didn't have to work last night.  Hopeing I get out of working tonight as well.  Party this weekend.  Looking forward to it!

Looks like summer is actually here, now!

Feeling a bit violated today...

Well, it has finally happened to me.  My diaper bag was taken from my shopping cart today, while I was browsing for some new linens for the guest room.  I felt so sick to my stomach when I realized it was gone, and then somewhat panicky on top of that.  They took Olivia's bottle, and all her diapers as well as my wallet/house and car keys, my good sunglasses, and my iphone headphones.  Thank goodness for dad, who came and picked us up and took us to Jeff's work so I could get his house key.  The front door lock has been changed.  I will have to get my driver's license and a new key for the Jeep tomorrow.  Canceled my debit card and ordered another, and have a watch on my credit record in case anything funny happens.  And, I miss my bag, which was made by Queen Bee, and was a gift from Jeff after Olivia was born.  But, mostly I am just pissed off, because the one time I am not wearing my bag across my chest is the day that they nab it.  Ugh!

Now just waiting for Jeff to get home from the airport with his sister and brother-in-law (hence, why I was shopping for linens).  Olivia is already sound asleep, so I have a little peace and quiet for a bit.  A couple beers have helped as well.  Hopefully tomorrow will be better...I hope.

Here is to some occasional wine-ing

Hmm.  I have not done a very good job of keeping up to date with my blog.  I always want to write stuff, but finding the time is something I have not managed very well.  I will continue to try and improve on that. 

Last weekend was fun.  We headed to Kennewick for a quick trip.  Aunt Mary watched Olivia for a bit so Jeff and I could go to Walla Walla to the Doubleback Winery opening.  I met Drew Bledsoe, who owns said winery.  He even poured my wine.  That was pretty sweet.  And the wine is pretty good stuff for a first year wine.  A pretty decent cab.  Looking forward to future bottles.




Mary and Olivia seemed to have a grand time.  I got several pictures from her throughout the day, so I know they were doing ok.  In fact, I don't think Olivia missed me very much!! :)


Glee season finale is tonight...although I will probably be watching it tomorrow.  I know it is going to be good.  Just love listening to the soundtrack.  The songs are so good!
