Spring is in the air. The temperatures have begun to warm up after our long Erie winter. SO, I feel it's time for a change. Yes, this will be the last posting at Sanford Place -- especially since we no longer live there! Our new website is up and running ----- CLICK HERE TO BE TAKEN TO OUR NEW INTERNET HOME! Hope you'll catch up with us there. Tuesday, May 03, 2005
I was in Pittsburgh yesterday for the unveiling of a portrait of one of court's judges, Judge Carol Mansmann, who passed away a couple of years ago. Stay tuned for new news from SanfordPlace -- I'm re-designing the blog. Monday, April 25, 2005
Isn't this weather crazy? Bring on the 80 degree days! We had a nice weekend at home though, owing to the bad weather. Olivia was in the mood for some "art" so she spent most of her time in the sun room -- which she quickly dubbed her "art studio." We managed to get a little work done on the house. Here's a quick peek. Liv and I did manage to get in a trip to Presque Isle State Park on Friday (she didn't have school). We even had lunch in the car which she thought was way cool! It sure looked like spring on Friday -- and quickly turned to winter on Saturday. Wednesday, April 20, 2005
WEIRD Alien markings appeared on my driveway this morning! Could it be a sign of alien invasion? ..... or did Olivia and friends break out the chalk Grandma Kimmy sent her for Easter? Your guess is as good as mine! Friday, April 15, 2005
I have been on a winning streak with books lately! This book has totally re-kindled my interest in and affection for this author. What a mystery - kept me guessing right up to the end -- I would find myself thinking about "who dunnit" while at work, in the grocery store, etc. It was THAT GOOD! It is a big book that takes careful reading -- you don't want to miss a clue! Then, I just finished this book, which was published in paperback recently. Fantastic. Although it was fiction, the characters were so real and the story so emotional, I couldn't put it down either! Also, I highly recommend this one that I've heard is being turned into a movie. I've been having such good luck with books lately, that I'm afraid I won't read anything this summer that I've enjoyed as much! Although, there is alway hope! Monday, April 11, 2005
Finally, a nice weekend in Erie! The abundance of sunshine felt great, although the temperature sure could have been warmer -- I don't think it got much above 60 degrees. On Saturday, we went to Renee's water polo game. Olivia brought her cousin Abby along and the girls were excellent cheer leaders! Sunday, we made it to church and then spent the afternoon lounging around. Not too much exciting on the agenda this week. Olivia was coming down with a runny nose over the weekend, but seems much improved this morning. Here's the weekend in pictures! Friday, April 08, 2005
Overheard in a restaurant last night: Old Lady #1: You know, they're going to blow the whole thing up. Old Lady #2: What thing? Old Lady #1: The Pope! Old Lady #2: The Pope? He's dead already. Old Lady #1: No, no. The funeral thing. All the leaders of the world are going to be there. They'll blow the whole thing up and all the leaders will be dead. Old Lady #2: Who would do such a thing? Old Lady #1: The devil! Old Lady #2: Oh, right. What about all the security? Old Lady #1: Security? You don't think Satan can get through security? Old Lady #2: Oh, right. Old Man #1: Would you two shut up and order already? Have a nice weekend everyone! |
