Random LOVE

December 3rd, 2009

We recently started running just a touch later on Saturday mornings, which means by the end of our runs the sun is trying ever so hard to come up and we can actually see where are feet are landing.

About two weeks ago, I noticed this little spray painted bit of graffiti on the bike path around Lake Harriet and I just couldn’t let it go.

It makes me smile and want to go spray paint some stuff.

Learning to use my big girl camera on MANUAL.

Lots to learn.

What have I done?

I have tried to write this post several times.  To no avail I have either lost it or run out of time trying to edit it.

That must mean something right?

What it means is you get to read T-odd’s rendition of the weekend.  Don’t stop before you get to The Gary Project.  It is just pee in your pants funny.

And yes, we did sign up.

OMG we signed up!

Of course you found that by the lake and are using it to put your shells in.

Happy 71st Birthday Mom!

All good news today.

Ok, a touch anemic…but who cares.

Today we take what we can get.

I just realized today that Erika is the one person, next to my kids, who I photograph the most.

And since today is her birthday, I would like to show you a few of my favorites.  It was a hard decision, there are so many.

Happy 36th birthday beautiful girl!

PJ ran away today.

I will take 50% of the blame.

I asked her to come back to the bus stop to talk something over with a friend she had a fight with.

She WOULD NOT!

So she got mad at me and said she was not going to live in our house anymore (I know…seriously big jump).

I said, “fine…good luck!” and walked away.

She said she was going over to Dr. B’s house.

I said, “call me when you get there.”

And she fucking did.

Once I got there (to make sure she was safe and sound, not raped, molested, picked up by the police or eaten by a wolf since she walked through the forest to get there) we sat down on the step to straighten things out.

I told her how much I loved her and that it made me sad that she just left and maybe we could start out by talking about what happened on the bus.

She told me about the disagreement with her friend and then she told me she wanted Dr. B to adopt her and that she wants to live with their family instead.

Congratulations Nick & Lynn!

We did it!

What an amazing day.

Thanks for letting us be a part of it.
