Grey's Anatomy is BACK!!!

I am so excited that finally the new episodes of Grey's Anatomy are HERE!!! After so much waiting and anticipation, last nights episode came and I must say it was worth the wait. I am not so sure what will happen here with "McDreamy" and Dr. Grey?????? But next weeks episode brings Addison back, what is up with that? Wow is all I have to say, and guess who will be watching that? Thanks Jan (and Oprah) for getting me hooked on the best show on Primetime Television!

Sorry everyone for the short M.I.A. but I promise not to be gone for too long now. LOL!! Love you all!

Baking a Cake just to Bake!


So I had this Devil's Chocolate Cake in my pantry and simply decided to bake it! My boys were asking me what the special occasion was, because I usually just make cupcakes for school functions, holidays or for the little guys birthday's, but today I decided to bake a cake.

What was the special occassion? Nothing at all, just wanted to make a cake for me and my boys and celebrate life! That's all, nothing extraordinary. I did take the time to decorate it a bit and play with the frosting and some frosting tips that I had for a while, but that's it.

For all you Chocolate lovers, I have to say it was delicious!!! Yum, yum, yum!

Chicago update

Ok, so as of right now we are all holding our breath. At this point we are having to wait until Louie returns to Chicago tomorrow and speaks with his boss about the reality of our situation. What situation? Well the fact that the market is so bad to sell homes right now and even more so here in Florida. The offer the company gave us for our house was based on Fair Market Value, so it was below what we owe for the house.

The "Relocation Specialist" has given us the current Market Analysis in our neighborhood, so we can put it for Sale but even that seems to be low. So with that truth in front of us, we have to ride this out before we can proceed with our move to Chicago.

Upon Louie's return, he will be presenting this dilema to his boss. Many things can happen, if their interest is REALLY to have Louie there then I am sure that they (BP) will come up with a solution. Otherwise, they can just decide to have him work remotely as he does each time that he comes here to visit with us. So all fingers & toes are crossed right now, in hopes that we can remain here for many reasons, family, friends, the kids schools, our house. However, if God's will is for us to be up there in Chicago then I am sure everything will work out.

So when you are all in prayer, send a prayer up for our family. That no matter what the final outcome is, it is one in which we can all be together again.

We thank you all in advance for your prayers!

Spring Break is over!

Well it was back to the real world today! I was in such denial, that I even woke up late, ugh! I set the alarm but forgot to turn it on. That would help wouldn't it. Well, Azriel was about 20 minutes late, not too bad but still late.

I guess it will be a bit hard this week getting used to the waking up early and homework at the end of the day so I better have me a couple of cups of coffee, LOL!!! Maybe that will help.

We sort of relaxed this Spring break, we did the whole being cozy at home, and having fun with our friends in the neighborhood. We did go to the movies and saw "Horton, Hears a Who?" cute movie. At least from what I saw, but I did fall asleep I was so tired so I missed a middle part of the movie. LOL!!! I guess the seats were too comfortable.

The weather here has been rainy for the most part so although we had plans to visit SeaWorld we are holding off for some better weather! I hope we are able to go soon, Azriel really misses going and seeing the dolphins and Shamu. He calls them his best friends (cute).

Short post, I hope to have more fun things later! LOL!!

Have a great week!
