My First Real Estate Auction - 09/28/11 09:27 PM
Today I attended an auction for a condo in Largo, MD.  We were allowed in an hour before the auction to investigate the unit.  I was actually surprised that there were so many people there - my guess is 8-10 sets of people bidding.

I'm not sure what I expected but it kinda felt like I was on an episode of Storage Wars.  It was very civilized and controlled and the unit actually sold for very close to market price.

I-Pads & Bathtubs - A Match NOT Made in Heaven! - 09/23/11 05:20 PM
I got my I-Pad last year for my birthday and I absolutely love it even though I don't use it for anything intelligent.
On Wednesday night my 6 year old son says to me "Mommy I have to tell you something and you have to promise not to yell".   As a mom, you know no good can come of that statement.
Turns out, my daughter was in the bathtub waiting for me to wash her hair and my son was hanging out in the bathroom keeping her company and watching something on the I-Pad.  She asked to see it and in … (17 comments)

9/11 - 10 years later - 09/09/11 07:07 PM
This is my least favorite time of the year as the anniversary of 9/11 and death of my best friend Angie approaches.
This year seems so much worse than some of the past anniversaries.  I think it's because 10 years feels like a lifetime.  Also, for the first time she's been dead (10 years) longer than we were best friends (9 years) and I feel so cheated!

Cheated out of the opportunity to see her as a mother.
Cheated out of the opportunity to have her know my children and have them know her personally.
