Summer Livin' and Opera Days


Well, this summer has been non-stop! I stayed home with the kids thinking I would be able to get alot done, but that has not been the case. What I mean by this is I get alot done but it's not all the things had planned on getting done. I guess it's because I tend to think I have more time so I take on more things to do!
First thing I did was to start a garden. I have always wanted to do this. It takes alot of work and time. I have slacked a little so the crop won't be great, but it has been a great experience! The greatest accomplishment of this project will be the tomatoes. I'm good with that. Each year I will get a little better!
Cali has been performing with the Opera Company. She is in Porgy and Bess and Showboat. It has been a very exciting thing to be a part of. She has enjoyed it tremendously. It has been a bit time consuming and Cali has had to sacrifice some fun things to be involved but I think overall it has been a fun and memorable experience!
As for Cole, he went to visit his Dad for the first time in Denver. I think it was a great thing for him! It was a heart wrenching thing for me! I talked to him everyday (twice, most days). He always sounded so good! He had a great time but I think he was ready to come home when it was time!

Making a fresh start

Everyday can be a fresh start...that's how I'm going to start looking at things. You can't sit and worry about the past. It's done and needs to be gone! New beginnings are always exciting! So why not think of everyday that way! I've started this blog to help me on my journey. It's something new that I have wanted to do for awhile but always put off. If anyone sees me going off the path of new beginnings and on to the path of past regrets, drop me a comment and kick my butt back to the beginning! Here it goes...(wish me luck)
