Tara – I was just thinking I should call you, we haven’t talked in awhile & I have missed chatting. Then I read this post and it warmed my heart – assuming that I’m the Amy you’re talking about! Randy was joking that it’s probably some other Amy =).
I’ve had a couple of crazy weeks actually, felt so exhausted last week that I went to the doctor and my thyroid tests were a little abnormal! They’re checking a few things but hoping that my thyroid isn’t trying to poop out on me.
I’ll try to call you this weekend or next week (next week isn’t very busy for me). How’s work?

Hey chicky,
I just caught up by reading your blog. It really made me laugh out loud. I loved your solution of cutting the Nippy. It’s genius.
I can’t wait for our thanksgiving visit

I’m slightly offended by number 45, but I guess I can get over it.
