After 22 years my hubby can finally put one waking nightmare to rest.

A friend of his was murdered 22 years ago and the killer was finally found guilty after all this time. I know he is overwhelmed with emotion tonight. How could you not be? Ive heard about this case alot during our 13 year marriage. Ive been apart of a production of a play he wrote that dealt with events that were inspired by her death and the surrounding events. I know he has waited for this day for a long time.
I send up a prayer to her family tonight. That maybe this will finally bring closure to what must be the hardest thing a parent can ever go thru.
I love you Tim! I hope you can sleep a little better tonight. Sometimes good does prevail over evil ......even though we have to wait awhile to see it.

Im On My Way....Home Sweet Home.....
So we finally did it. After 13 plus years of marriage and a 19 month old, we have begun the process of buying our first house. Daunting. Expensive. Annoying. Relieved.
All to be done is the inspections and then if all is well...closing. Hopefully by Labor Day weekend we will be packing up this residence and settling into our new digs. Is it my dream home? Not even close. Im content to quit dreaming so much for awhile and start living. It will be a great first home. Good yard. Enough space. Good school district if we need it later. And hopefully quiet and full of good neighbors. The hood we currently call home is a shadow of its former self and we say good riddance.
Our trip to Gatlinburg, the vegas of the south, was good fun. We spent a day at Dollywood. I believe she is the only person to have a theme park named after herself. The wolverine stayed with the grandparents for the morning and then napped and we picked him up around 3 and headed back to the park. He had a blast riding rides and watching his parents, aunt, uncle and cousins act like idiots as we dressed up in western attire and had one of those old fashioned pictures made. It was a hoot. The wolverine makes an adorable cowboy. I was a little aghast when the photographer handed him a gun and said "bang bang" as she pointed it at him. If i had any doubts about how i felt about "gun play" beforehand, i dont now.
So we are back. The hubby is getting ready to start his new job. I am working overload for the next week while i can. Ive also started doing some evening massage clients again. I will for least the month of August until we move. It was kind of nice being back in my old, familiar, pre-mommy world for a little while. Although my current aches and pains makes it less then enjoyable. Oh well. Ya cant have it both ways ever.
The wolverine is covered in bumps and bruises. He fell and hit his head THREE times tonight. He has a gooseegg on his forehead. *Sigh*
Hey...is anyone going to the Little Lambs sale this weekend. I thought i might go Friday morning and see what they have. Also i will be at playgroup on Friday. I emailed Anne about getting a replacement and have talked with a couple of moms about it too. So hopefully in the next couple of weeks i will shed that responsiblity.
Welcome back Maria.
Oh yeah....is anyone planning on going and seeing Laura in Godspell?
Fug of the Week goes to the media coverage of the Mel Gibson Debacle. I for one feel bad for Lance Bass. The guy finally comes out and is one upped by some drunken smack talking antics of Rigs.
