Table for 15 Originally uploaded by Nikchick. Last night we had the pleasure of dinner with some friends of Chris’s from high school. Elizabeth and Geoff live in Seattle with their blended family (her son and daughter plus his three sons). Elizabeth’s sister was in visiting from Boston and another Boston to Seattle transplant [...] Wow, I’ve definitely been AWOL on the blog front for the last several months but April has to be the worst blog month in my history of blogging! I suppose it all started back in 2008. Many things popped up to cause me stress and anxiety last year. There were multiple family health problems and [...] Thanks to Facebook, several of The Moms have done this with their kids.

She refers to her brush with death in 2006, where she fell into a coma and wasn’t expected to live as “my little incident” and still seems as spunky and feisty as ever. She’s 81 now and is definitely feeling [...] People have been asking how it went, so here’s a little clip that the school put up.
